Makran Coastal Range
Unique, moon-like sedimentary rock formations and ridges visible shortly after takeoff from Turbat.
Kharan Desert Basin
Vast stretches of sandy plains and salt flats providing a stark contrast to the surrounding mountain ranges.
Ras Koh Hills
Rugged, isolated granite peaks that rise sharply from the desert floor on the western horizon.
Chagai Vistas
Deep views into the remote western Balochistan territory, known for its volcanic terrain and tectonic activity.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid direct sun glare. This side provides the best perspective of the vast desert basins that define the western part of the province. Look for the distinct color changes in the soil from ochre to pale white salt crusts.

Kech River Valley
Small pockets of green palm groves and agricultural patches clinging to the riverbanks near the start of the route.
Central Brahui Range
The primary mountain system of Balochistan, featuring high-altitude ridges and deep, winding canyons.
Mastung Orchards
As you descend into Quetta, look for the greener patches of apple and apricot orchards in the Mastung valley.
Quetta Valley Entry
A dramatic approach as the aircraft weaves between the high peaks surrounding the Quetta basin, including Takatu and Murdar.
The right side is ideal for late afternoon flights when the sun illuminates the eastern mountain faces. Keep an eye out for the historical Bolan Pass route if the flight path tracks slightly east. The approach into Quetta on this side offers excellent views of the city's suburban sprawl against the limestone peaks.
