Northern Areas Trip

Posted in Uncategorized by expatheather on October 26, 2007

Sorry I haven’t been posting recently, as internet connection is quite slow here. We just had a week long break from school where we travelled to the Northern Areas of Pakistan.

From Ultar Meadow

We took a day hike to the Ultar Glacier and Ultar Base Camp with Hunza Guides Pakistan, www.hunzaguidespakistan.com

From Karimabad

800 year old Baltit Fort in Karimabad, Hunza Valley

From Minapin

Minapin Village offers stunning views of 7000+meter peaks set in a flower-filled garden. We definitely recommend staying or eating at the Diran Guest House in Minapin.

From Karakoram Hig…

We drove for over 2100km, most of which was on the Karakoram Highway or the “KKH”.
