K-2 Circular Trek
K-2 Circular Trek is a challenging and exhilarating trekking route that takes you through some of the most breathtaking landscapes in the world.
Located in the Karakoram mountain range, the trek offers stunning views of K2, the second-highest mountain in the world, as well as other towering peaks.
The circular route takes you through rugged terrain, crossing high passes and glacial rivers, and passing through remote villages and valleys.
The trek requires a high level of fitness and experience, but the rewards are unforgettable views, a sense of accomplishment, and a deeper connection with nature.
Ranked among the top ten classic hikes in the world, Concordia K-2 Circular Trek Base Camp Trek is a lifetime experience.
The trek leads towards Concordia surrounded by a number of 8000 & 7000 M high peaks including K-2 (the king of mountains), Broad Peak, Gasherbrum IV, Baltoro Kangri, & Chogolisa etc.
En-route glimpses of some other famous high mountains; Trango Tower, Masherbrum Peak, and Muztagh Tower besides many tributary glaciers of Baltoro, will mesmerize you in the wilderness.
Many adventure enthusiasts believed that the beauty of the Karakoram Mountains is unique and beyond description.
Starting from Islamabad; we head towards Skardu, the entry point of the mighty Karakorams.
Driving by jeeps to Askole, a remote and last dwelling will be our first camping day.
Jhula and Paiju will be next campsites.
Paiju, green oasis under the shadows of Paiju Peak, here we have the first views of the immense Baltoro Glacier.
Urdukas an impressive campsite with a panoramic view over the Baltoro and to the dramatic rock spires on the opposite side of the glacier.
Goro II, at about 4300m, is on the glacier where ledges have been leveled out for the tents; there are views of Muztagh (7,270m), Masherbrum (7,800m) and Gasherbrum IV.
We head to Concordia “the throne room of the mountain gods” as described by Galen Rowell, a famous climber and writer.
Finally, we arrive at Concordia, the junction of Baltoro and Godwin Austin Glaciers with several other tributaries, serving as the base for the giants of Karakorams.
Gondogoro La 5450m is the most popular and frequently used high pass in the Karakoram.
This route was established in 1986 that connects Concordia and the upper Baltoro Glacier to the beautiful Hushe Valley over the Gondogoro La.
Though quite challenging and technical pass but provides an alternate route to return from Concordia hence making equally famous among trekkers and climbers.
If weather favors, the high pass offers the most overwhelming and extraordinary view of K-2, Broad Peak, G-I, G-II, G-III, G-IV, Masherbrum, & Chogolisa besides many other peaks and glaciers in the region.
