Babusar Valley or Babusar Region (Urdu: درہ بابوسر) (elevation 4,173 metres or 13,691 feet)[1][2] is a mountain pass in Pakistan at the north of the 150 km (93 miles) long Kaghan Valley, connecting it via the Thak Nala with Chilas on the Karakoram Highway (KKH). Babusar Top is the highest point in Kaghan Valley that can be easily accessed by cars.
The Babusar Pass connects Khyber Pakhtunkhwa with Gilgit-Baltistan.[3] It is one of the more dangerous routes in Pakistan. Every year, a number of casualties in road accidents are reported from this mountainous terrain. The most common reason for accidents is brake failure of vehicles in this steep landscape due to inexperience.[3] Babusar Top was originally known as Babur Top, originating from the fact that the Mughal emperor Babur passed through this area in the early 16th century. Nowadays however, it is commonly referred to as Babusar Top.[4]
