Sample Itinerary
|
| Day 01 |
The trek for Nanga Parbat starts from the Raikot Bridge, about 45 miles
south of Gilgit. The journey will commence early morning from Rawalpindi
by bus via Karakoram Highway. We will reach the bridge by the evening.
A two-day walk from there will enable us to reach fairy Meadows.
|
| Day 02 |
Toughest day of the trek - this day requires a steep climb of over 3,000
feet with added disadvantages of no shade or water. The terrain is not
difficult or dangerous but tiring and strenuous.
|
| Day 03 |
Continuing the journey to Fairy Meadows, the walk is fairly tiring, but
now the surroundings offer a great deal of pleasure. True to its name,
fairy meadows hold lush green meadows, gushing crystal clear spring water
and towering pine trees which generously provide cool shade. Above all,
the majestic Nanga Parbat - "the naked mountain" stands tall and proud
for you to behold. This sight is enough to drive away the tiredness of
many a weary trekker.

| Day 04 |
The trek to the Behal Camp is an easy and pleasant three mile walk. The
rest of the day is spent relaxing.

Camp.
