The Kharmang Valley (Urdu: وادی کھرمنگ), also known as Kartaksho,[1] is one of the five main valleys in Gilgit–Baltistan region of Pakistan.[2][3] The area became a district in 2015, with its temporary headquarters at the town of Tolti.[4] The valley is located 120 kilometres (75 mi) from the city of Skardu.[5]
Tourist destinations in the area include Manthokha Waterfall, Khamosh Waterfall Mehdiabad Valley and Kharmang Khas valley. Kharmang is where the Indus River enters Pakistani-administered territory from the Leh district in the Indian-controlled territory of the disputed Kashmir region.
