Discover Concordia & K2 Base Camp

The meeting point of the Baltoro and Godwin-Austen glaciers, where K2, Broad Peak, Gasherbrum I and Gasherbrum II rise together.

Experience the most spectacular mountain amphitheatre on earth. From Concordia at 4,600 m, four of the world’s fourteen eight-thousand-metre peaks are in view, with Masherbrum, Mitre Peak and the Trango Towers all around. The trek follows the Braldu gorge from Askole and continues along the Baltoro Glacier, camping at Jhola, Paiju, Urdukas and Goro II, before reaching K2 Base Camp and the Gilkey Memorial. A true expedition, professionally planned with porters, a cook crew and experienced local support.

Good to Know

It is a long, high-altitude walk rather than a technical climb, but you spend about a week on the glacier at up to 5,150 m. Previous multi-day trekking experience is required.

Yes. Trekking permits and a licensed guide are required in the Central Karakoram National Park, and foreign nationals need additional clearance. We arrange everything as part of your expedition.
