Hingol mud volcano

The Hingol mud volcanoes form a collection of geological formations where gas and mud emerge from underground through multiple craters in the earth.

The area contains evidence of ancient settlements, with archaeological findings indicating continuous human presence dating back several thousand years in Balochistan.

Hindu pilgrims visit Chandragup volcano throughout the year, performing rituals that include throwing coconuts into craters and preparing traditional roti offerings.

Access to the mud volcanoes requires traveling through Hingol National Park, with October to March providing the most favorable temperatures for exploration.

The site features three main volcanic formations named Chandragup 1, 2, and 3, with the tallest reaching 300 feet in height.
