The golden journey – The National Newspaper

-excerpt-After the short flight to Khorog my adventure began in earnest with a three-day trek in the Geisev Valley, while staying with a local family in their homestay. This had been arranged with an Aga Khan funded initiative, PECTA (the Pamirs Eco-tourism Association; http://www.pamirs.org) which can organise tailor-made trips into Pamiri villages with guides and drivers.

With two travelling companions from London, and Tatik, our driver and guide, we screeched along hairpin bends and past lakes to a large suspension bridge where our walking began.
