- Stunning wild and remote scenery
- Trek Broad Peak and Gilkey Memorial (just below K2 Base Camp)
- Spectacular mountain vistas
Starting and ending in Islamabad, the Concordia & K2 trip is a guided trekking tour that takes 21 days. You will travel through Jhola, Paiju, Baltoro Glacier and 6 other destinations in Pakistan. Concordia & K2 is a small group trip which includes accommodation, transport, meals and others.
Concordia has possibly some of the most spectacular mountain vistas. Situated at the confluence of the Baltoro and Godwin Austen glaciers, it is an extraordinary place, dominated by K2, the world's second highest mountain. Gasherbrum 4, Broad Peak, Mitre Peak and Chogolisa form the rest of an astounding circle of mountain giants which has been called 'the throne room of the Gods'. This stunning trek starts in Askole and follows the Braldu gorge to the snout of the Baltoro glacier, which we then follow to Concordia. We have an optional day walk to Gilkey Memorial (just below K2 Base Camp) and Broad Peak Base Camp. This is one of the world’s most stunning mountain treks and is wild and remote with a scenery of unmatched grandeur.

“This was a trip to Mongolia with the 3 day Nadaam festival slotted in towards the end of the trip. 11 of us toured round the country in two ex Russian military 4 x4 vehicles spending a lot of time off road, bouncing up and down. We stayed in a hotel in the capital and Ger camps in the country side.”

“An amazing adventure from start to finish. If you want to have an adventure with your bike then book this one. To cycle/bus through three different countries in two weeks is great.”

“Interesting and varied trip through Thailand, Laos, Vietnam and Cambodia. The contrast of countries, rural and urban environments was excellent. Stayed in mainly good hotels, many with swimming pools, one basic but in a lovely village, Pak Beng, one homestay in the Mekong Delta, one over night train journey.”
