City Walks in Skardu
Discover the real city
Skardu is the gateway to Baltistan and the great Karakoram giants, K2 among them. Between the Kachura lakes, the cold desert of Katpana, the restored forts of Shigar and Khaplu and the road up to Deosai, it is one of Pakistan's richest bases for city walks. Baltistan's hosts are seasoned mountain people who handle logistics that would defeat a visitor, and booking direct means the earnings reach the valleys rather than an agency in the city.
