K2 Base Camp Trek (21-Days)"
The K2 Base Camp Trek is a demanding yet highly rewarding adventure, leading trekkers to the base camp of K2, the world's second-highest mountain. This challenging journey, which begins in Skardu, takes 8 to 10 days to complete, depending on the chosen route and individual pace. Set in the remote Karakoram mountain range of Pakistan, the trek offers stunning close-up views of K2 and its surrounding peaks, as well as an immersive experience of local culture.
