Dara-i-Pech
7.8
Lower score (below 6)
Pech Valley is scenic—lush river gorge and dramatic mountains—but it's one of Afghanistan's most dangerous valleys with significant ISIS-K and Taliban activity throughout. The remoteness is deliberate; access is militarily controlled. Women don't have a social presence in populated areas, and foreign men are watched constantly.
