The Wakhan Corridor (وخان in Persian) is the little panhandle of Badakhshan Province in the far northeast of Afghanistan, wedged between Tajikistan and Pakistan, and its only link to China.

[edit] Get in

While it may seem tempting to cross into China or Pakistan from this area, it is highly illegal and you stand a good chance of ending up in jail.

Recently there has been word of a possible new border crossing between Afghanistan and Pakistan at the Broghil Pass. There aren't checkpoints as such, but if you're willing to do a lot of legwork to get the necessary and arduous permissions, start your enquiry in Kabul.
