No, it’s not. Babusar top is one of the highest road passes in Pakistan and probably among the world’s highest too. If there is a recent snowfall, it’s not going to be your normal snowfall where there is a few inches of snow, it could rather turn into a blizzard anytime and will make your journey through it impossible. One could get stuck in the storm for days before any help can arrive. And usually, the local authorities don’t have enough resources and manpower to carry on a rescue mission. So, you should definitely avoid using Babusar Top if the weather forecast for Naran or weather Forecast for Hunza shows any recent of future snowfalls or even rains (You can use the above-mentioned link for that).<\/p>\n
