How would Pakistan be for a long-term visit for a woman traveler? I've zoomed around some of the mountainous areas on google maps and as I'm interested in the hiking/mountaineering areas and one thing I've noticed is that there are ZERO photos of female travelers on any of the google images from those areas. Basically anywhere outside of Karachi I am not seeing pictures of women.

Between that and this recent thread on reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/pakistan/comments/pb5l2k/how_can_yo...

I had been ranking it lower on my travel wish-list.

Frankly would not recommend it for solo travel unless the woman in question is a really tough individual with experience in even more difficult developing-nation environments.
