About Altit Fort

Altit Fort, located in the stunning Hunza Valley, is a 900-year-old architectural marvel that showcases the region's rich history. Originally home to the hereditary rulers of Hunza, the fort sits atop a cliff overlooking the Hunza River, providing breathtaking views of the valley.

The fort’s design reflects the ancient Tibetan-influenced architecture, with its narrow passages, wooden balconies, and intricate stonework. Once on the brink of collapse, Altit Fort has been meticulously restored by the Aga Khan Trust for Culture, preserving its unique cultural heritage.

Today, Altit Fort is not just a historical site but also a symbol of resilience, offering visitors an authentic glimpse into Hunza’s royal past. Exploring its museum and gardens provides a deep connection to the region's ancient traditions and lifestyle.

A visit to Altit Fort is a must for anyone seeking to immerse themselves in the beauty and history of the Hunza Valley.
