CHOGOLUNGMA HARAMOSH GLACIER
the ultimate vista cruise
 
Grade: Strenuous

The rarely visited vast region of Chogo-Lungma Glacier is located in the northeastern corner of Baltistan. The panoramic view of numerous 6000 meter peaks and about twenty glaciers that converge in to the Chogo-Lungma and Haramosh glaciers, make this vista point the real rewarding destination. One can see Ibex on the distant hillsides, and the tracks of bear and endangered Snow Leopard on the top of passes known as la in Balti.

The traverse from Chogo-Lungma Galcier in Baltistan to Haramosh Glacier in Gilgit region over Haramosh La covers three glaciers and witness grand panoramas, can be best described as the "Ultimate Vistacruise".

The venture begins at Skardu with a drive to the end of the jeep trail at Doko village in the Shigir Valley. First day’s trek takes us to Arandu the last permanent village surrounded by glacier snouts. One will come across seasonal settlements of the shepherds along both glaciers. It is fascinating to observe their simple way of life.

 

The next few days
will be spent on the white glacier. We’ll spend three days at Laila base camp to enjoy the spectacular panoramas from nearby Las and the numerous glaciers. We ascend Haramosh La 4985 m, where only superlatives can describe the views of Haramosh. Main Peak, and the Chogo-Lungma region. Descent in to the Haramosh Valley brings us into a lush alpine region with pine, birch and juniper forest. We cross Mani Glacier and descend well-worn trail through meadows down to the arid and barren land of the lower valley to the hamlet of Dasso. Another day of easy trek brings us down into the Indus gorge where we end the trek and drive to Gilgit.
