ISLAMABAD, 31 MAY (DNA) — The district authorities in Naran have issued a travel advisory for Babusar Top, urging tourists, travellers, and transport operators to exercise caution and avoid unnecessary travel due to persistent snowfall and hazardous road conditions.
The district administration, with a special travel advisory on media platforms, stated that ongoing snowfall across the region is expected to create severe difficulties for travellers, urging all visitors to verify weather updates before planning any movement towards the mountain pass.
According to the advisory, traffic on the Babusar Top route and adjoining areas has been significantly disrupted by continuous snow accumulation, with certain stretches currently restricted to one-way passage only. Officials cautioned that travel along the route becomes extremely hazardous after 6 pm due to rapidly worsening snowfall intensity and sharply reduced visibility conditions.
They further highlighted that icy surfaces, mechanical brake failures, glacial movements, rockfalls, and potential landslides collectively pose grave threats to both life and property. The administration appealed to tourists, transport operators, and the general public to avoid all non-essential journeys until further notice and to strictly comply with instructions issued by local authorities and law enforcement agencies. — DNA
