The participants will begin their jeep safari in the direction of Daso, passing via the Shigar Valley. The journey will take place along the banks of the Braldu River, which runs all the way to Askole. Askole will be the final settlement on our itinerary; after exiting the jeeps, participants will begin walking. However, depending on the road conditions, participants may begin their walk before arriving in Askole. The distance up to Skardu will take you between six and eight hours to complete. The road has recently been extended up to Jhola and Paiju. Work on construction and maintenance is ongoing. Because of this road aspect, the route may change slightly.

On this day of our K2 base camp trip, we will follow the Braldu Gorge and the Braldu River's bank. The participants will be able to see the spectacular Trango Tower and Cathedral Peak rocks. Participants should avoid getting sunburned on this day because the walking conditions can be exceedingly dry and hot.

Several glacier streams flow down into the valley, and depending on the water levels, participants will need to utilise river crossing shoes. On a clear day, the trekkers will be able to see the snout of the Baltoro Glacier. On this day, the participants will climb away from the river to camp at Paiju, the last camp where they will see trees for quite some time.

The walking will be difficult on this day, but the landscape will become more spectacular with each step onto the snout of Baltoro Glacier. The trail involves continual up-and-down climbs on the glacier moraine, and while the trail is relatively safe, it is strongly advised to be cautious at all times. As they go, the participants will be treated to breathtaking vistas of Trango Tower and Uli Biaho. The participants will next walk a steep road along the edge of the Baltoro or sometimes to Khoburtse, the side of the glacier where camp will be set up.

Today's GPS Data Altitude: 3,905 m

On this day of the K2 base camp trip, hikers will arrive at Concordia after trudging up the moraine continually, with more and more high snowcapped peaks appearing along the route, culminating in the view of K2. Broad Peak, Mitre Peak, Gasherbrum, Sia Kangri, and many other summits may be viewed.

Today's GPS Data Altitude: 

 K2 BC (5,155m) + Gilkey (5,230m) + Broad Peak (4,844m)

Duration: 6-7 hours 

Today, you can hike up the Godwin-Austen glacier to the Art Gilkey Memorial (an American geologist and mountaineer), which is right before K2 Base Camp. This is a fantastic day. We will leave early in the morning, crossing the glaciers onto the thin track leading to K2 (the trail is all rocky). The mountain appears to grow larger and larger as we follow the glacier toward K2. 

Broad Peak appears to our right, and we pass the base camp after around 3 hours. We normally stop here for lunch and then continue on with K2 looming over us as we approach closer and closer.

The Art Gilkey Memorial is located just before base camp, among the rock and ice-strewn landscape. A brief scramble gets us to the memorial for those whose lives K2 claimed. Plaques and etched tin plates are affixed to a small rocky outcrop at the base of this massive mountain. There are excellent views of K2 just above us, and we may see some climbing excursions. We spend the night in K2's base camp.

Today's GPS Data Altitude: 5,400 m

Duration: 4-5 hours 

On this day, we walk northwest from the K2 base camp along the upper stretch of Godwin Austen Glacier to Khayrut Peak, which is northwest of K2 and west of Broad Peak. The trail to Khayrut Peak base camp follows the upper section of the Godwin Austen Glacier.

Today's GPS Data Altitude: 6,402 m 

Duration: 10 hours

Khayrut Peak (near Sella Pass - 6,068m) is for ambitious mountaineers who wish to try their hand at their first Karakoram trekking peak with little previous crampon and ice axe expertise. Its location is unrivaled; Khayrut Peak is located at the point of a triangle formed by K2 and Broad Peak. The ascent to the summit from base camp takes about 10 hours.

Our climbing guide will determine the number of days we will have for the climb. His option to rest, acclimatize, or press for the summit will be influenced by the weather, the health of the participants, and the overall team spirit. Those who do not intend to tackle the summit at this time can relax at base camp and enjoy the wonderful views while the remaining participants attempt the peak.

Duration: 3.4 hours.

On this day, we return to Concordia from K2 Base Camp and recuperate in preparation for the next day's hike.

Duration: 5-6 hours

On this day, we return to Concordia from Khayrut Base Camp and recover in preparation for the next day's hike.

On this day, the participants will take a little different and less traveled path. To avoid crevasses, short mini-tours will be undertaken, and participants should walk on tough ice rather than slick ice. In the event of snow, the participants and porters will walk together while wearing crampons and roped together.

The base will be established in Ali camp, which participants will arrive at after hiking for 5-6 hours. The name "Ali Camp" comes from a local porter who was the first to traverse the Gondogoro La Pass. When the participants get to the base, they will be taught some basic techniques for the next day's crossing of the Gondogoro La Pass.

Participants will be up as early as 2 a.m. on this day. After getting ready and eating breakfast, the group will depart as one team for the Gondogoro La base. Depending on the situation, our support personnel will be on hand to repair ropes or assist members with equipment. The trip to the top of Gondogoro La Pass takes about 3 hours. You will be able to see and experience all four 8000ers in the Baltoro region. K2, G1, Broad Peak, and G2.

Fixed ropes will be used extensively while descending to the other side, and the usage of crampons is critical for the members' safety. Members will get views of the stunning and sword-shaped Laila Peak (6,096m), as well as vistas of other Trinity summits.

To avoid jolting stones on their teammates, the members will have to be extremely cautious when descending and look out for every step they take. The routes grow easier as the participants descend the slope and go along the moraine. The camp will be located at Khuispang (4,600m), the meeting point of the Gondogoro and Trinity Glaciers.

Participants will continue hiking down. Because the descent will be a relatively easy hike, the climbing equipment, such as ropes and crampons, will be packed while descending. The rough and mountainous terrain will be carried over the lovely green landscapes of Hushe Valley.

After lunch, the hikers will proceed to the edge of the Gondogoro Glacier, where they will find a track that will lead them to a magnificent valley of rhubarb and grass.

There are two routes to the destination at the valley's end. Our guide, with the help of local porters, will choose the most popular treks.

When the two pathways intersect, the journey becomes much easier. The members will visit stone cottages built by herdsmen and local inhabitants. The participants will see the signs of the villages in the vicinity on this day and will be able to breathe easily due to the large trees and lower altitude. The camp will be put up at Saicho (3,350m), a sand and grassy area along the flowing glacier water streams.

Today's GPS Data Altitude:  2,498 m

Distance: 20 kilometres hike + 127 kilometres drive

Duration: 5-7 hours trek + 6 hours drive

On this day, participants must hike down the river stream of glacier-melted water from the Charakusa, Ailling, Masherbrum, and Gondogoro Glaciers for only 3-4 hours. The participants will begin to notice signs of dwellings, shelters, fields, and people living.

The participants will see the Hushe village's two-story shelters, where the ground floor is for cattle and the first floor is for the family to live. Participants can explore the picturesque hushe valley and connect with the locals after setting up their camp. 

This would be the Gondogoro La Trek's final camping day.

When the participants arrive at Hushe, they will depart towards Skardu town, and the route will take them through many magnificent scenes of the Hushe Valley's various little villages. To reach to the other side, the participants will traverse a suspension bridge spanning the Shyok River (which flows from Ladakh, India).

Traditional rafts constructed of goat skin and filled with air were used to traverse the river in the past. The suspension bridge that is now used to traverse was erected in the 1990s. The participants will arrive in Khaplu after crossing the bridge. The road from Khaplu to Skardu becomes smoother, and the option to take is the paved road along the Shayok River, which leads to the Indus River's confluence. Participants will arrive in Skardu in 4 hours after traveling along the Indus River. The participants can use the amenities that they did not have for the previous two weeks. The first item on the list would be a hot shower, followed by a satisfying supper.

This day is set aside for any potential trekking delays. We do not want any of our visitors to miss a domestic flight owing to delays. These delays can be caused by a variety of circumstances, including (but not limited to) road construction. This time can be spent sightseeing in Skardu.

Today's GPS Data Altitude: 590 m

The participants will fly from Skardu Airport to Islamabad Airport on this day. You will have a pleasant time relaxing at the Islamabad Hotel.

Domestic flights are occasionally canceled due to weather conditions. If your flight is canceled, you will drive to Chilas for the night. A vehicle takes eight to 10 hours.

Today's GPS Data Altitude: 538 m

This day is set aside for any potential delays if the domestic flight does not operate the day before. Our guests will travel from Chilas to Islamabad in the early morning, which could take up to 10 hours. However, if the players make it to Islamabad on the domestic flight, it would be a free day. This time could be spent sightseeing in Islamabad.
