About this

M41 highway

The Pamir Highway is a high-altitude route through eastern Tajikistan that follows old Soviet military roads across mountain passes exceeding 4,000 meters. Travelers typically start in Dushanbe or Khorog and continue toward Murghab or the Kyrgyz border, passing small settlements, river valleys, and occasional border checkpoints. The route requires advance planning for fuel, permits, and weather, as services are limited and road conditions can change quickly.
