Detail about the package
What's included
- Day 1. Meet our guide(s) at the Islamabad Airport Our full-board service package for Concordia, K2 Base Camp Trek begins only after arrival in Pakistan. After airport transfer, there would be plenty of time before lunch to relax at the hotel. Most of the international flights will arrive during the morning. All team will meet for lunch that would end with a briefing about our trek/expedition and a question-answer session. This shall be followed by a short visit to Tourism Ministry of Pakistan for an official and mandatory briefing about traveling to the northern mountains. Meanwhile our team will complete the necessary paperwork.
- Day 2: Early morning air / road travel to Skardu town (2500m) Sightseeing during the day The one hour “subject to weather” flight from Islamabad offers a lot. The stunning route the flight takes goes through major Himalayan mountain range and one can enjoy breathtaking views of world’s 9th highest peak, Nanga Parbat peak (8126m). Before landing the majestic K2 and other known peaks in the area would visible if we are lucky. Some might even be able to spot a part of the K2 Gondogoro La Trek route. After check in at our hotel, the day will be spent visiting Bazar, historical forts, scenic lakes or visiting ancient rock inscriptions, one of which is of 8th century Manthal Buddha Rock that shows traces of Buddhist monks and pilgrims who had influence in the area before Islam.
- DAY 3: Jeep Safari to Askole (3000m) Via Shigar Valley A 7 hours jeep ride to Askole village, crossing the cold desert to Shigar valley first. Askole is small village with few houses in a solitary street. The last two hours drive through Braldu Gorge was once a 2 days trek before the jeep road. In few places the road is intersected by some streams thus only off-road vehicles are considered for this journey. The roads are fragile to landslides due to melting glaciers and thus might require starting the trek a day earlier but this rarely happens. If we reach Askole as per schedule the first night will be spent in the village under the beautiful sky along the rumbling Braldu River.
- Day 4: First Day of Trek towards Korofon (3075m) Our first trek for Gondogoro La Trek begins from Askole which is the last inhibited village on the route to Concordia. We will pass across the local Balti people as they go by their work in their fields which is quite fascinating. We will trek to the foot of Biafo Glacier, world’s 3rd longest glacier outside polar region and which also is a door leading to the Hispar pass (and snow lake) connecting Baltistan region to Hunza valley. The snow river at the glacier’s foot is stretched 63 km which has a bridge, without which we would have to cross the glacier which is boulder and rubble at the bottom. The campsite Korofong (3,075 m) lays across the glacier’s other foot. The trees here are habitat to a variety of beautiful birds.
- Day 5: Trek Via Panma Valley to Jhola Campsite (3100m) From Korofong we will be started gaining altitude and follow Braldu course till we reach Panma River which is crossed taking a detour through a trail built on the face of the cliff. Before this trail, trekkers would climb giant cliffs and boulders in order to cross the high velocity river to continue the trekking journey. We go through the locally operated toll “suspension” bridge under the government license. Beyond this bridge is our camp site called Jhola
- Day 6 : Trek to Paiju (3420m) Through Braldu valley Continuing the path returning to Braldu River. The trek goes on to a narrow path along the river’s edge and then climbs to higher area from where we will view the remarkable Paiju Peak. There would be few streams to settle, thus we would wear the sporty boots. From high points today we will view Baltoro Glacier, peaks of Cathedral group and Trango towers. Continuing the trek to the central Braldu we walk on to the trek’s acclimatization site at Paiju. Acclimatization at this point on the Gondogoro La Trek is essential because ascending too high too hasty can lead to altitude sickness.
- Day 7: Acclimatization and rest at Camp Paiju ( 3420m) Before heading for Concordia, Paiju camp has been designated as the acclimatization point located at the foot of Baltoro glacier where Braldu valley widens. This is a significant staging point during Gondogoro La Trek with availability to spring water. This camp has facilities such as long drop toilets, wash basins and a bathroom. This whole day is designated for acclimatization and the porters also bake breads for the climb up over the glacier. Those with spare energy, a great hike above the camp can be a very good exercise and opportunity to view the group of Cathedral Peaks, the stunning Trango towers and also K2 on a lucky day with clear sky.
- Day 8: Start of Baltoro Glacier Trek ,Walk to camp Khoburtse (3795m) A trek from Paiju leads upstream to Baltoro Glacier from where the melting water outpours into the river. We ascend and walk on top of the glacier that is rubbles and rocks. The team follows the traditional trails here but it will be a tough walk on the mighty glacier. The team will create our path through Baltoro glacier and towards the south side pursue the moraine trails. We head east to continue along the glacier till we get to the glacier’s smaller side. Here we move towards South till we make crossing to enter the valley. We reach by night to camp Khoburtse. Magnificent views of Cathedral towers group, Trango towers, and Uli Biaho tower can be enjoyed after a great trekking day. Baltoro Glacier Trek can be demanding for many participants on the first day.
- Day 9: Baltoro Glacier Trek Views of Trango Towers.Camp at Urdukas (3900m) Considering the increase in sleep altitude and being wary for all participants, we have a short trek day. We will continue alongside the glacier, sometimes on it or above the moraine. We pass by the Trango tower and the lonely peak “unnamed tower” to our camp. This day’s campsite was found and cleared by the K2 expedition by Duke of Abruzzi in 1909. The team will climb around hundred meters higher than the glacier to the terraces where the campsite is located. It offers a mesmerizing view of the Lobsang, Trango Towers, cathedral group etc. We will reach here to have delayed lunch and spend the day resting. Gondogoro La Trek begins to pay off, providing grand views from Urdukas camp.
- Day 10 : Baltoro Glacier Trek .Trek to Goro Camp (4295m) sights of Mashbrum Peaks Having enough rest at Urdukas we move eastward along the moraine till the point where we climb on the mighty glacier. We will go the glacier’s centre through a smooth flow and we will be able to view Masherbrum (7821m). Going over and around the rubble on the mighty glacier, continuously descending and ascending, we will eventually reach to witness peaks surrounding Concordia and the great Gasherbrum IV (7925 m) staring down at us and behind us still visible are the Trango tower and the Cathedral peaks while we move towards camp ‘Goro’ (4,295 m). Sleeping at high altitude on the mighty Baltoro, it is essential to stay warm especially at nights.
- Day 11 : Baltoro Glacier Trek to Concordia(4500m)Baltoro glacier trek to Concordia offers the greatest spectacles of the Gondogoro La Trek. We continue our walk on the mighty Baltoro while participants pass by Mustagh Tower (7,284 m) and Gasherbrum IV, partially obscuring behind it the Gasherbrum I (8,080 m), thus called “Hidden Peak”. We can spot it on the right side of Gasherbrum IV with fin like ridges. Making our route up on Baltoro, views of Broad Peak (8051 m) appear while Marble and Crystal Peaks appear on the left. We will be surrounded by 4 eight-thousanders, 10 out of 30 highest peaks of the world. Camp will be set at 4,500 m in Concordia on the moraine.
- Day 12: K2 Base camp (5100m) and Broad Peak Base camp (4800m) We can start early through crevasses and small rivers created by melting ice. We follow on the glacier that is named after Godwin Austin who first declared K2’s height. After three hours we will be at Broad Peak base camp where we will have a great sight of the astonishing Karakoram 2nd (K2), Mitre Peak behind us and the Bride Peak. We walk on the moraine which is mostly boulders. However we do walk on ice occasionally. After another 3 hours trek, we shall complete one way journey of the K2 Base Camp reaching a moraine safe zone, a traditional base camp area for K2 climbers.
- Day 13: K2 Base camp (5100m) and Broad Peak Base camp (4800m) We can start early through crevasses and small rivers created by melting ice.

Travel Documents & Visa In order to apply for visas to Pakistan, you generally need a passport expiring later than (6) months. For more reliable and updated information, we suggest you to contact the nearest Pakistani consulate or embassy in your country. We expect that you will take full responsibility for ensuring you have the right travel documents. Normally if you are visiting non-EU countries, you must check for 2 vacant pages in your travel document (passport) for every country you plan to travel. A tourist visa (visit visa) is required to come to Pakistan for trekking. People on work visas (already in Pakistan/abroad) require a No-Objection Certificate (NOC) which normally takes up to 6 weeks. The requirements and fee for tourist visas to Pakistan is normally around 200 USD but for accurate information you should consult Pakistani consulates nearby. To apply for a tourist visa, you will need a Letter of Invitation from our company and sometimes a duplicate (copy) of the “government trekking permit” for the group, processed by us. We will help you with all necessary documents to obtain the visa once you register with us.
