10-Day Hunza Valley & Fairy Meadows Tour

📅 10 Days / 9 Nights🚗 By Road📍 From Islamabad

The two views most people come to northern Pakistan for, in one overland trip: Rakaposhi rising above the Hunza terraces, and the north face of Nanga Parbat from the meadow at Fairy Meadows. Driven up the Karakoram Highway with time at both, including a spare day at Fairy Meadows because the mountain is often in cloud.

Questions About This Tour

The jeep track is rough and exposed, then a 2-3 hour uphill walk on a clear path. Porters and mules carry bags. Most reasonably fit travellers manage it; the base camp day is longer at 6-8 hours return and is optional.
Because Nanga Parbat is often clouded in, and a single-shot itinerary means one bad morning costs you the mountain entirely. The extra day is the single most useful thing in this trip.
Partly, you can fly to Gilgit and cut the Hunza approach, but Fairy Meadows is on the road south of Gilgit, so the KKH drive is unavoidable for this combination.
