K2 Base Camp is ‘one of the greatest hikes on earth’ (Lonely Planet 2021). The Karakoram are a unique part of the mighty Himalayan chain, quieter and more rugged than its Nepal neighbour, our trek takes us to base camp 5,150m (16,896ft) of the worlds 2nd biggest mountain, K2 at 8,611m (28,251ft). The journey along the Baltoro glacier to Concordia allow us a vantage point to see four 8000m peaks from one location; K2, Broad Peak, Gasherbrum I and Gasherbrum II. Whilst in Islamabad and Skardu we dedicate time exploring the fascinating cultural side to Pakistan.
