K2 Base Camp Trek

K2 Base Camp Trek

The K2 Base Camp Trek is recognized as one of the world’s top 10 hikes, offering an exceptional trekking experience. The route leads to Concordia, home to the highest peaks in the area, such as K2, GIV, Broad Peak, Chogolisa, and Baltoro Kangri. The journey boasts panoramic views of renowned mountains, including Muztagh Tower, Trango Tower, and Mashabrum Peak. Many local and international climbers are drawn to the incomparable beauty of the Karakoram Mountain Range. The trip commences from Islamabad, where we’ll travel to Skardu and then venture into the mighty Karakoram Mountain Range by jeep. Our first camping destination will be Askoli, followed by Paiju and Jhula. Pajju is a verdant oasis nestled below Pajju Mountain, where you can feast your eyes on the stunning and immense Baltoro Glacier. At the Urdukas camping site, you’ll have amazing views of Baltoro above, and across the way, you’ll see the glacier’s rocky spires. Goro II is approximately 4300 meters from the glacier, where you’ll witness exceptional views of GIV, Mashabrum, and Muztagh. Our final destination is Concordia, also known as the junction of Godwin Austin Glaciers and Baltoro. According to Galen Rowell, a renowned writer and mountaineer, Concordia is the “throne room of the mountain gods.”
