| BIAFO HISPER TREK |
| An
interesting yet less frequented traverse from Baltistan to Hunza valley
crossing over the Biafo-Hisper pass at an altitude of 5151m. The combined
length of 116 kms Biafo and Hisper glaciers forms the longest glacier
after the poles. It offers excellent view of group of mountain and
glaciers. Above all the Snow Lake has the charms of none. During this
trek you will find a stunning experience of sunrise and set over the
Karakoram mountains. The unique bio-diversity with natural flora and
fauna gives great chances to see wildlife especially the Himalayan
brown bears. The trek involves crossing of high pass, snow lands and
many glaciers and streams. This trek requires good fitness and courage
for a lasting nature reward.
Driving through the Shiger valley up to Askoli village, the trek begins and enters into a corridor full of savage beauty. Traversing through the Biafo Glacier and snow lake the trek ascends up to the pass. After crossing the Pass and walking on Hisper glacier we will reach to the Hisper village in the next five days. The Jeep drive to Karimabad and luxury van journey along the Karakoram Highway takes us to Islamabad. ITINERARY |
