Sikaram Sar

Sikaram Sar is a mountain summit in the Spin Ghar range that forms a natural border between Afghanistan and Pakistan. The peak dominates the landscape with its steep terrain and is surrounded by settlements on its slopes.

The area saw military conflict in the 19th century when British forces clashed with Afghan troops near Peiwar Pass. This battle shaped the geopolitical boundaries and control of the mountain region.

Mountain villages scattered across the slopes maintain traditional ways of living closely tied to the land. Residents practice agriculture and herding, skills passed down through generations in this remote region.

The terrain is extremely steep with cold weather conditions year-round that demand proper gear and preparation. Visitors should be equipped for alpine conditions and physically ready for high altitude travel.

The mountain displays varied rock formations from different geological periods that become visible during travel across its slopes. This mix of ancient stone tells the long geological story of the region.
