These are climbing-related trip reports and articles concerning the Pamir region of Tajikistan and Wakhan Corridor of Afghanistan (generally accessed from Tajikistan). This list is not exhaustive and only represents some of the activity in the past 5 years, but it should provide some additional information to those considering an expedition. Over the coming months the PAC is developing a more extensive and complete history of climbing in the Pamirs, which began in the early days of the Soviet Union.
If you have a trip report that you would like to add to this list, please email us.
