This trek is not savage, but it is wild. Without having to scale any peaks, this trek helps you to experience an expedition. Unlike Everest Base Camp, there is not that much in K2 Base Camp. In reality, there is absolutely nothing outside of the trekking and climbing season at the location of K2 Base Camp.
Furthermore, this magnificent trek begins in Askole and follows the Braldu gorge to the snout of the Baltoro glacier, which trekkers can then follow to reach Concordia. An optional day walk to K2 and Broad Peak base camps is available. This is one of the most beautiful mountain treks in the world, and with a scenery of unmatched grandeur, it is wild and remote.
Be part of the upcoming K2 Base Camp Trek Pakistan – 2024 and acquaint yourself with the Karakoram.
The aforementioned trek starts in June 2024.
