Experience the raw beauty of Pakistan’s northern frontier on this exclusive 6-day adventure from Skardu to the hidden valleys of Minimarg and Domail. Beginning in the picturesque Skardu Valley, explore tranquil lakes, desert landscapes, and ancient forts before venturing into the vast wilderness of Deosai National Park — the second-highest plateau on earth.
From Deosai, journey deeper into the breathtaking landscapes of Astore District to reach Minimarg, a remote and peaceful valley rarely seen by travelers. Surrounded by alpine meadows, crystal-clear streams, and pine forests, you’ll visit the legendary Rainbow Lake, known for its vivid colors and serenity. With a mix of nature, light trekking, cultural immersion, and off-the-beaten-path exploration, this tour offers a once-in-a-lifetime experience in Gilgit-Baltistan’s most untouched region.
