Overview
The journey
Spantik's south-east ridge is one of the most accessible 7,000 m routes in the Karakoram, making it a classic first big expedition before an 8,000 m peak.
We provide permits, base camp services, high-altitude porters, fixed lines and an experienced climbing leader. The schedule includes a generous summit window.
