The blast hit the small town of Jandool in Lower Dir, where Pakistani troops fought a major offensive against the Taliban two years ago.
Militants frequently launch attacks in the restive districts close to the Afghan border.
On Sunday at least 50 people were killed when a Sufi Muslim shrine was attacked in central Punjab province.
