Nanga Parbat (the Naked Mountain) boasts a long history of unsuccessful climbing attempts and disasters; hence it came to be known as the killer mountain. It rises high at 8,126 meters above sea level out of the Himalayas in Diamer District of Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan.

Historical accounts suggest that mount Nanga Parbat popped up as a result of collision between the Indian and the Eurasian tectonic plates.

Nanga Parbat has three massive faces:

  1. The Rakhiot Face, overlooking the gray cliffs and highlands on the north and south
  2. The Diamer Face, which is quite rock-strewn in the start but transforms into ice fields as you approach the killer mountain
  3. The Rupal face, which boasts the highest cliff in the world

Nanga Parbat is one of the most desired prizes for mountaineers. Climbing the killer instinct mountain in the icy gravities of Himalayan twilight seems like madness, but the world’s best mountaineers can’t just sleep without putting their passion to the test. Just like mount K2, Nanga Parbat is the ultimate challenge for the world’s veteran mountaineers.

Climb Nanga Parbat with Karakorum Expeditions

Stringing like a trinket through the curvature of the Himalaya, there is no harsher game in the world than attempting to climb the Naked Mountain. The cold is extreme and terribly penetrating, so much so that it would chill you down to your bone. Temperature falls as low as -50 degree Celsius, and the gusts burnish the ice into goblet, cutting down any feeble part of your outfit and shelter.

And the odds are what the real mountaineers love the most. They give us the opportunity for extreme adventure. They allow us to go to the extreme and see if our passion outweighs the hardships. Karakorum Expeditions can make your extreme adventure possible for you. We have highly trained and experienced climbing instructors and high altitude porters who will try their best to make things possible for you.

We have 50 days itinerary for Nanga Parbat expedition, starting with your arrival in Islamabad. We will take care of the briefing at the Ministry of Tourism, your logistics, accommodation and food, drive to Diamer, trek to the Nanga Parbat base camp, and of course your ultimate challenge: climbing the killer instinct mountain.

We will dedicate 6 to 45 days to your climbing attempt, which counts on the weather conditions, your fitness, and your experience as a climber. We will also take care of your safe return to your destination after your attempt to climb Nanga Parbat.

Minimum Group Participants and holiday Status The required number of participant bookings i.e. six (6) registrations are required to conduct the “Fixed departures”. Although we receive several guests for each fixed departure, we feel that it is important to mention it. You can make sure of the trip status on this page. Status “available” means we are registering guests and “guaranteed” means we have crossed the required number of participants and the trip will commence on the given dates. We will constantly be in touch with all our guests who register. We will timely guide you step by step regarding visa applications and flight reservations to Pakistan etc. 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. For more information please write us at info@karakorumexpedition.com
