A flight from Islamabad International Airport (OPIS) to Skardu (OPSD) in Pakistan. This super-scenic route is actually flown by Pakistan International Airlines with its A320, deep into the majestic mountains of the Gilgit-Baltistan region. It's considered the gateway to the Karakoram range and the K2.

It ends with a challenging visual circling approach that has to be flown fully manual, landing at the airport that has no instrument aids or even PAPIs.

Since the Pakistani government intends to turn Skardu into an international airport with all-weather capabilities, this procedure may not last much longer, as it's probably getting aids and likely a RNAV approach of some sort.

I absolutely recommend this flight. The route is OPIS BOBA1P BOBAM DCT KAGLO J122 AKTIX J122 BUNGI J186 DELDA J122 BIREB DCT OPSD.

Unless you stay above the mountains, from BUNGI onward you need to fly manually following the valleys.
