The shortest way out of Balochistan

Every other route from Quetta into another province takes eight hours or more. This one takes five to six. If you are heading into south Punjab or the western Indus belt, coming through Dera Ghazi Khan is considerably quicker than routing via Multan or Sukkur, and it puts you straight onto the western bank network.


The western belt

Rajanpur, Taunsa and Multan

Dera Ghazi Khan is a junction for the western bank of the Indus rather than an endpoint.

MULTAN

Two hours east

The south Punjab hub, with the widest onward operator choice in the region.

RAJANPUR AND TAUNSA

The Indus belt

Both on the Silk Line and Baloch Transport networks along the western bank.

FORT MUNRO

In the hills

The hill station on the DG Khan road, reached by local transport rather than scheduled service.

A daytime corridor, unusually

Sada Bahar runs this route from 9:00 AM to 9:30 PM rather than concentrating departures overnight. At five to six hours you can travel in daylight and still arrive at a reasonable hour, which on a mountain pass is worth choosing deliberately rather than defaulting to an overnight.
