Highest Polo Festival

Shandur Pass connects Chitral and Ghizer, Balatistan, and is home to the world’s highest Polo ground at 3,700 meters (12,000ft).

This polo ground was established by a Balti prince for traditional polo games which have been held annually since 1936. The Free-styled mountain polo is arguably polo in its purest form. The only rule is …There are no Rules. The Shandur Polo Festival is a multi-day tournament between local teams that invites visitors to view the game along with shows of folk music, dance and celebration.
