Nanga Parbat has three gigantic faces: the Raikot East face, Diamer West face route, and Rupal South face, with Herligkoffer BC marking the highest point at 4600m from the base camp. The mountain also offers three beautiful moderate treks, along with the challenging Around Nanga Parbat trek.
This strenuous trek involves crossing three high passes: Mazeno La at 5400m, Kado Sagar Pass at 4900m, and Khustu Pass at 4840m. While Mazeno La presents quite technical and challenging terrain, particularly during the descent which is steep and requires rappelling down fixed ropes, the other two passes do not demand technical skills.
