Download or read book A Trekking Guide to the Karakoram written by Bob Gibbons and published by . This book was released on 2021-02 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new guide to trekking in the Karakoram! Nestled in the north of Pakistan, the Karakoram is one of the wildest and most desolate mountain ranges in the world. Tourism here is not as developed as in Nepal, but the people's friendliness and willingness to help trekkers achieve their goals is unquestionable. Traversing turbulent rivers and tumbling glaciers below sheer rock faces and soaring towers, a trek to K2 Concordia will give more than enough memories to last a lifetime. If K2 is not for you, the adjacent Hindu Kush mountains near Gilgit, Hunza and Ishkomen offer more gentle, shorter but also spectacular trekking. Pakistan has been in the news for all the wrong reasons - it's time to put it firmly back on the tourist map where it truly belongs.
