Kalash girls in Bumboret, Chitral, Pakistan.

The man to the left is a Kalash mountain goat herder who says that he almost shot me by mistake when I encountered him by night in the high mountains above Achulga Valley

Would you like to speak to these girls? If so, here is my Kalasha-English Word List.

For questions about the origins of the Kalash people, see: Alexander the Great and the Kalash.

The Kalash speak the language of Kalasha. For the story of a Kalash girl, see: Afiyat, a beautiful Kalash girl.
