Skardu is the staging town for every Karakoram expedition and a superb destination in its own right, with lakes, forts, cold deserts and the Deosai Plains nearby.
Our Skardu tours suit travellers who want big Baltistan scenery at a comfortable, road-based pace.
The K2 Base Camp trek walks the length of the Baltoro Glacier to Concordia and the foot of K2 (8,611 m). It is the classic Karakoram adventure and the trip most foreign trekkers ask us about first.
This is the advanced version of the K2 trek. Instead of retracing the Baltoro, you cross the Gondogoro La (5,585 m) for a sunrise panorama of K2, Broad Peak and the Gasherbrums, then descend into the Hushe valley.
Skardu is the staging town for every Karakoram expedition, but it is a superb destination in its own right: alpine lakes, cold deserts, ancient forts and the road to the Deosai Plains.
The Baltoro Glacier is the approach route to K2, Broad Peak and the Gasherbrums. Trekking its length to Concordia is one of the world's classic high-mountain journeys.
