Badgoi Pass

Badgoi or Badogai, also known as Badawi, is a mountain pass that connects the Kumrat Valley of Upper Dir District with Utror and Kalam Valleys of Upper Swat District in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan.[1][2] The high mountain pass is located at 3,523m above sea level.[2]

The rugged road to the summit, also known as Do Teer Pass, Badgoi Pass, and Badogai Pass, is entirely unpaved, locally called Utrar-Dir Road. Stretching 26.53 miles and running west-east from Kalkot to Utror, the winter snow renders Badawi impassable from November through June.[3]
