The Fortress is about one kilometre before Bibi Fatima hot spring. This 12th-century fort is the most impressive of the Wakhan Valley's many tumbledown castle ruins, complete with multiple walls and round watchtowers. The site is reached via a 6km zigzag drive from the main road (towards Bibi Fatima Springs) and sits about 500m above the valley. The hillside west of the fort offers the best views of the fort in the foreground and the snowy panorama beyond (Source Lonely Planet).

This is a weekly market held on sand bank on the no man's land of the Panj River. It's located in between Tajikistan and Afghanistan. Passport must be shown to cross the bridge but u keep your passport. It's peaceful, safe and orderly. Opens around 0930-1000. Can take a cab from Ishkashim for about 100Somoni or ride your bike and lock it near the guard standing beside the bridge on Tajik side. It's very colorful with Afghani men peddling food, clothing, household goods to fresh produce. Great place to spend 1-2 hours.

Hey @tristanbogaard, thank you very much for your documentation of that area, it's super useful! maybe you can help me out...starting from this point, there is a hiking path going south and traversing over a pass at 4500m. Do you have any information on this pass? Thanks in advance!

A couple of waterfalls and a fountain where local drinks (I've filtered for safety). There is also a small building with latrine-type toilets. The restaurant marked on other maps is closed. last chance for food is 20km earlier. Turn right just before the bridge opposite the last small waterfall on a small path and you can go down to a green area with few flat patches perfect to pitch the tent under the shade of trees. And you can have easy access to toilet and water above you.

Very unique experience. The hot springs are natural. There is a bath built with a small entrance fee. Every half an hour the access changes between men and women. People use the hot springs for healing.

There are specific male and female times. The hot baths get VERY hot in summer!

With a view on Lenin Peak, right by a glacial stream! Please leave no trace.

This is one of the world's highest border posts at 4,280 meters. It's hard work to get there, but the view is fantastic. The border guards stamp your passport and we got to the other side without any hassle. When you cycle from Tajikistan to Kyrgyzstan it is quite a bit of no man's land before you get a new stamp to enter Kyrgyzstan.

Qalai Khumb is super modern compared to the rest of the Pamir Highway. There is a chic hotel and a large Western-style supermarket.

The Tavildara pass is at 3258 meters and can only be reached by a road that is in extremely bad condition. There are warning signs for mines and while we were there they were still busy securing the field.

The Ak-Baital Pass is the highest pass along the iconic Pamir Highway (M41), between Dushanbe (Tajikistan) and Osh (Kyrgyzstan). With its 4655 meters you probably have to gasp for breath every now and then before reaching the top.
