Malakand Pass Tunnel
The Malakand Pass (Pashto: درہ ملاکنډ; Urdu: درۂ ملاکنڈ) is a mountain pass in the Malakand District of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa that connects Peshawar with the Chitral District.
The pass road begins at Dargai, which is 150 km the north-west from Islamabad. It then slopes upward towards the tunnel to reach the areas of Swat and Dir. From the top of the pass, Swat Canal descending through the valley can be observed. The Canal was built by the Britishers in the colonial era to channel water from the Swat River through Malakand Pass to the plain areas around Mardan.
The Pass is a wide open road and is well-structured but sometimes it may get extensively trafficked.
At the top end, it is guarded by the Malakand Fort from which it descends through the bazaar of Batkhela, with a Hindu Shahi fort perched above it. After this, it continues to reach the headworks of the Swat Canal to the Swat River. At the bottom end, it meets the plain areas of Mardan and the Charsadda District.
