Expat Pakistani

If you’ve been daydreaming about fresh powder and wide-open slopes, **Pakistan delivers a winter escape you probably didn’t see coming**. Nestled high in the Swat Valley, **Pakistan's cheeky answer to Switzerland, minus the cuckoo clocks** or eye-watering prices, feels like the universe's best kept secret finally spilling the beans. At 2,800 metres, Malam Jabba Ski Resort is now one of the region’s top winter destinations. The surrounding **Swat Valley blends jaw-dropping mountain scenery with a deep historical and cultural layer**: Gandharan Buddhist ruins, the emerald-green Swat River, and pine forests that stretch as far as you can see. The resort has everything you need for a solid ski trip: an **800-metre groomed main run, gentler green slope, a modern chairlift,** affordable equipment rental, and a ski school with patient instructors. Whether you’re charging the red run or the type who still whispers “bismillah” before pushing off the turn, you’ll feel right at home. In recent years Malam Jabba has even hosted international winter events, proof of how far the facilities have come. While minor logistical challenges exist, the overall experience is highly rewarding, with fresh local cuisine, new infrastructure and an atmosphere of genuine welcome that characterises travel in northern Pakistan. All in all, this is your chance to discover a different side of Pakistan: snow on the Hindu Kush, crisp pine air through the window, endless white peaks and sky. **Open your eyes, you’re inside a postcard!** Ready? Let’s roll. **DAY 1 // FRI // DEPARTURE** Meet at DXB Terminal 1 at 15:00 for the 17:00 direct flight to Islamabad.

Afternoon: first ride up Pakistan’s longest chairlift, a gentle recon lap on the slopes, and plenty of time to breathe that crisp high-altitude air. Sunset from the terrace with hot kahwa is non-negotiable. Overnight Malam Jabba. **Day 3 // SUN // FULL SKI DAY** Breakfast overlooking the peaks, then straight to the slopes. Unlimited runs on the red and green pistes all day. Late afternoon options: hike up for fresh tracks, or take the chairlift at golden hour for one of the best views in Pakistan.

Overnight Malam Jabba. **DAY 4 // MON // LAST SKIING & RETURN** One final morning session – usually the snow is perfect and the slopes are quiet. Ski till your legs smile, then check-out at 11:00.
