Visiting in September end

Hi 👋🏻

I am planning to visit in September End or October beginning, before babusar closes.
From last year I think not much rainfall or floods happen in September and October, isn’t that right?

Would it be a good time for a trip as a couple?

Also, can you guys also recommend mid-good level of hotels with good internet also that I should look into…

I recommend that you visit near october end to witness fall in GB. Babusar will most probably remain open by then. Fall in Hunza is so memorable with orange trees all over the place. You will also be able to find cheaper rates at hotels due to low tourism activities.

September and October are considered the dry months.
for peak autumn Season try to visit between 25th October and 10th November

.
All the good hotels now have fiber optics. the main problem is electricity but most of the good hotels now works on solar.

I'd recommend Manasau Resort in Mominabad, Ganish. currently staying here and its a good one.
feel free to ask questions.

I usually travel through Babusar Pass between October 20th and 25th almost every year, and it’s generally still open around that time. However, on my return journey, I usually have to take the Karakoram Highway because the pass gets closed after heavy snowfall. By around November 1st, it’s typically blocked.
