Frequently asked questions

When is the trekking season in Pakistan's Karakoram?

June to mid-September for the high glacier routes. The Baltoro, Gondogoro La and Snow Lake need that window — outside it the passes and high camps are snowbound and the jeep roads to Askole and Hushe are often cut. Lower treks such as Fairy Meadows and Barah Brok run May to October.

How fit do I need to be for a Karakoram trek?

For K2 Base Camp expect six to eight hours of walking a day for two weeks, on moraine and glacier, carrying only a daypack. Three months of regular hill walking with a loaded pack is a realistic minimum. Shorter treks such as Barah Brok (5 days) suit first-timers.

Do I need a permit to trek in Gilgit-Baltistan?

Open-zone treks such as Fairy Meadows need no trekking permit for most nationalities. K2 Base Camp is in a restricted zone and needs a trekking permit and an NOC, which we arrange. Liaison officers are for peak climbs: any summit above 6,000 m needs a peak permit and a liaison officer, which we also arrange. Everyone needs a Pakistan visa.

What does a trek price include?

Our quoted prices cover permits and fees, all ground transport, a licensed Balti guide, cook and porters, full camp equipment and all meals on trek. International flights, insurance and personal gear are not included. Each package page lists its own inclusions.

How much does a Karakoram trek cost?

Short treks start around $1,200 for six days. K2 Base Camp runs $1,800 to $2,600 depending on route and length. The 8,000 m expeditions start at $15,900. All prices are per person and listed on every package page.
