K-2 Base Camp(5100M) Gondogoro La(5700M)

We follow the same route as the Concordia trek up the Baltoro Glacier but we continue up past Broad Peak to K2 Base Camp where we spend a night, allowing time to absorb the unique atmosphere and environment surrounding this unforgettable mountain. Our return trek takes us over the spectacular Gondogoro La, a dramatic high col that affords further stunning views of the Gasherbrum peaks. We purposefully cross this pass in the early hours of the morning so, given good weather, we are rewarded with a tremendous golden sunshine in one of the most dramatic places on earth. Our trek is one of the few that actually camps overnight at K2 Base Camp rather than a days walk away. Check this out.
