Nanga Parbat And Rakaposhi Base Camp
Fairy Meadows is a lush green area and German adventure lovers call it “marchen wise” to Fairy Meadows. We stay in beautiful camping sites/huts and have a fascinating view of Nanga Parbat, Raikot peak and Chongra.
Full day excursion to Nanga Parbat BC and back to Fairy Meadows. We have a gentle walk through the forest to Beyal camp, on left side there is Raikot glacier and Buldar peak. From Beyal continue trek to UP to moraine cross Chongra glacier and reach to Nanga Parbat Base camp for lunch and after rest trek back to Fairy Meadows.
Minapin to Hapakun Camp
This trek is located within the Rakaposhi Range in the region of Hunza – Nagar valleys. It is also an opportunity to see the local culture of the mountain people. There are summer settlements in this trekking route, local people with their cattle (sheep, goats, yaks and cows etc.). There are pasturelands on the whole trek only on the top have the glacier moraine, it takes 2-3 hours easy walk to cross the moraine. It is just like Nepal but there are no lodges, therefore, we are arranging the camps for the portage we use the animals. From Minapin village the path follows the irrigation channel and crosses the river on a good bridge. It then follows the River before ascending steeply through woods to a summer settlement knows as Bungidas. Higher up is the smaller summer settlement of Hapakun with good camping.
Hapakun Camp to Rakaposhi BC
The path continues through woods pastures, climbing steeply to the crest of lateral moraine which until now has hidden the huge Minapin Glacier to the left. There are spectacular views from here of Diran peak 7,266 m excellent view of the north face of Rakposhi 7,788 m. The narrow path then traverses across slop, which drops away steeply down to the glacier before descending to Tagafari, a narrow field between the lateral moraine and Rakaposhi. If this is as far as you intend to go, it is well worth spending a day here to explore and take in the scenery. From Tagafari, it is possible to cross the Minapin glacier to Kachel, a summer pasture with superb views of Rakaposhi.
