    The majestic Himalyas, Korakorams and the Hindu-kush mountains in the Northern Areas are must see.......You will definitely fall in love with these areas and unique culture of friendly people living here. There are numerous treks which pass through lush green pastures, sprinkling streams, freezing glaciers etc.

    Pakistan has some absolutely stunning trekking! The number and variety of trekking trips is almost boundless, all the high-altitude trekking is in the Northern Areas and North-West Frontier Province (basically the areas North of Islamabad) with the glacier treks up to K2 Base Camp, Broad Peak, Gasherbrum and Masherbrum being in the Baltistan region - accessible by a flight or bus trip to Skardu and then Jeeps to the head of the trek.

    There are plenty of Pakistani companies offering treks - try searching online for K2 Pakistan Trekking type things and you should get quite a few hits. I found about 21 local companies to choose from and then ruled out dodgy sounding ones and finally found one to suit my interests, budget and departure date. I went with Adventure Tavel - http://www.adventure-touroperator.com/ (Give me an email if you want more details)

    Highest Mountain Ranges: Yasin Valley...Virtual Heaven
  • Tip Rating:
  • At 3200 metres, Astore is in a country lush green and wooded with many fine grazing meadows. There are two lakes close to the glaciers and Chongra Peak is also visible. The area is dotted with snow-covered glaciers and Songo Sor Lake which is fed by the glaciers has good trout fishing. At the confluence of grey Punial with the clear blue water of the Yasin River, the trail leads to the Yasin valley which is 2,500 metres high. Gupis is situated just before Yasin valley, and less than 40 km. Tiny Kashmir, Teru is about 32 km from Phander and a little less than half way is Ghizer which is a tiny village where the trekking route to Kalam in the Swat Valley begins. Shandur Pass is about 24 km from Teru and one of the most scenic routes in the region.
    It dips down gradually to a small hamlet 6 km away, which is the last settlement before Laspur. From Shandur Pass, the first town in Chitral is Laspur situated at an altitude of 2,600 metres. This is the starting point for trekking routes to Mastuj, Madaghlast, Kalam and Teru. Mastuj is hikeable 16 km away where the Mastuj and Yakhund rivers meet. Trekking routes leading to Darkot, Thui Ann and Chumarkhan passes into Yasin, Laspur, and Chitral start off from Mastuj. There is a paved road from Laspur to Chitral, which runs south of Harchin and Mastuj, joining Chitral road at Koghozi

  • Tip Rating:
  • We made a two hours hike across the glacier. It is a kind of strange feeling walking on a glacier as you hear the ice crack.
