I was TERRIFIED on my trip to Fairy Meadows, Pakistan’s FAVOURITE tourist spot 🇵🇰
I travelled on the 2nd most dangerous road in the world whilst travelling up to tourist spot Fairy Meadows. It's also an area of Pakistan that has previously experienced safety issues for tourists. I felt genuine fear on this day.. but is it worth the risk? Watch to find out.
0:00 About to set off on the 2nd most deadly road in the world

1:44 Our jeep ran into trouble
3:03 This is scaring me now
4:22 The risk of rockfall
4:32 How to pass someone coming the opposite way
5:21 Finally we go on foot
5:35 I was put on a horse!
6:24 I spot Nanga Parbat!
7:12 Chatting with locals

8:12 Making it into the kitchen for chai
8:41 Waking up in the morning freezing
9:08 Trying to light a fire
10:48 Fairy meadows morning views
10:58 Fairy meadows cabins
11:10 Is fairy meadows worth it? I went to find out
11:48 Are there any fairies at Fairy meadows?
12:44 Spot the fairy!
13:35 My guide hums all the time
14:26 How safe do I feel in Pakistan?
15:25 Discovering the Nanga Parbat view and glacier
16:27 My final thoughts on my police escort

She had a appointed Armi personnel with her, although she doesn’t need that in my personal opinion. People are very respectful and helpful towards their guests and specially for a woman. I have traveled in Pakistan northern areas in a Hilux van with full of local Pakhtoon van we girls were wearing jeans and shirts, I still remember their eyes were on the floor none of them made us uncomfortable at all. I’m so proud to be a Pakistani 🇵🇰.

I did this trek too and it may be that I stayed in the cabin on the edge of the cliff 11:22. I went there early in the season when this whole area was covered in snow. No one else around either but the owner allowed me to stay there. Similar experience with the fire. I refused to allow anyone else to carry my stuff so had my 20Kg plus rucksack on me all the way from the point where the 4x4 jeeps stopped. There had been a few landslides and as the snow was melting in certain areas, the path became narrow and dangerous. I started to feel the air thinning out a bit from around 2700 metres up. The view was awesome and likewise I would wake up early to catch the sunrise and the sunset. I remember the police escort too, the were very friendly. You do go through a lot of checkpoints so don't loose your passport. I felt completely safe there and treated like guests where often local people did not take money from you. May revisit this place with family in the future but those roads are so scary, I was not prepared for them.
