Shigar
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Shigar is a valley and a town in Baltistan near Skardu in northern Pakistan that is watered by Shigar River. The valley stretches about 170km from Skardu to Askole and is the gateway to the high mountains of the Karakoram. Even though the Shigar Valley is a remote and largely inaccessible place, there are several villages in the valley. Askole is the last settlement in Shigar Valley, which is still far from the high mountains.
