Easy way to the “Throne Room of the Mountain Gods
- Trekking into the heart of Karakoram to Concordia
- Five famous glaciers (Baltoro, Godwin Austin, Broad, West Gasharbrum and Abruzzi)
- One night spent in a tent at Concordia increases the life span by one year
Trekking into the heart of Karakoram to Concordia, once considered to be a tough proposition, is now well within the capabilities of any regular hill walker. At Concordia, our ultimate destination, there is an assembly of giant peaks, which lie simply unmatched any where in the world and where five famous glaciers (Baltoro, Godwin Austin, Broad, West Gasharbrum and Abruzzi) meet. Spending a night at Concordia, surrounded by the mountain giants is spectacular. A legend that one night spent in a tent at Concordia increases the life span by one year. The air around here is pure, cool and invigorating. This is why, not surprising, that the mighty mountains of the Karakoram should but attract the mighty adventurous persons from all over the world to make them feel stronger.
