Altit Fort is an ancient fort above Karimabad in the Hunza valley in Gilgit Baltistan, Pakistan. It has been built on a sheer rock cliff that falls 300 meters (1,000 feet) into the Indus river. It was originally home to the hereditary rulers of the Hunza state who carried the title Mir although they moved to the somewhat younger Baltit fort nearby three centuries later. Altit Fort and in particular the Shikari tower is around 1100 years old which makes it the oldest monument in the Gilgit Baltistan
