Around Nanga Parbat (Nanga Parbat Trek Without Jilipur Pass)

Nanga Parbat (8125 m/26,813 ft) is the second highest mountain in Pakistan and 9th in the world, also known as one of the three most challenging mountains in the world. The huge massif has a series of ridges and pinnacles culminating at 8125m/26,813ft with the name of Nanga Parbat, which means ‘naked mountain’. The other given name which gained fame is Killer Mountain as the early disasters on this peak were drastic and once had the maximum number of causalities as compared to any other mountain in the world. After a long struggle, it was finally conquered by a joint Austrian-German expedition when Hermann Buhl made the final ascent in a strenuous forty one hour solo ordeal without oxygen.

In the program we make a circle around the mountain and witness the beauty and culture of the surrounding areas. While trekking, we cross the maximum height of 5300 meters at Mazeno, a semi technical pass, which requires fixed ropes while making the descent on steep crevassed slopes. We finish our trekking at Fairy Meadows, the given name of which really defines its meaning.
