Skardu, Gilgit-Baltistan
The high desert of Skardu and the Baltoro Glacier — gateway to K2, Broad Peak and the Gasherbrums.
Baltistan is the roof of Pakistan. From the sand dunes and apricot orchards around Skardu, jeep roads lead to Askole, the last village before the Baltoro Glacier and the long walk to Concordia.
Beyond the big expeditions, Baltistan is a place of quiet lakes, old wooden mosques and forts at Khaplu and Shigar, and the vast Deosai plateau — one of the highest plains on Earth.
