Spantik Base Camp Trek
Spantik Base Camp Trek

Also known as Golden Peak for its golden wall facing Hunza-Nagar from the south, Spantik is the most attainable 7000m peak in the Karakoram. Spantik Peak base camp trek is a well known jungle gym for mountain dwellers endeavoring their initial 7,000-meter top in Karakoram.

It is also called golden peak and Ghenish Chhish. We undertake a 12-day difficult round trip in the core of Karakoram, moving toward the base camp of this lovely peak on fourth day of our trek . Not many adventurers visit this piece of Karakoram so we have the chance to encounter the sentimental wild of Karakoram.

MAIN HIGHLIGHTS

This breathtaking trekking trip is a wounderful trekking opportunity in an extraordinary scope of mountains. The dramatic approach trek along the Chogolungma Glacier passes through various beautiful mountain surroundings far from the regular trekking routes. Straightforward climbing leads to the mountain’s summit, where clear weather conditions result in tremendous views in all directions.

There are two prominent ridges; South East and North West. South East is a long and demanding snow ridge with few technical difficulty sections and little objective danger.

This route was climbed on July 5, 1955, by a party led by K. Kramer. The North West (Golden Pillar) is a massive combination of ice and rock. The first successful summiteers on this route are British climbers Mick Fowler and Victor Saunders. Spantik is a truly Himalayan scale objective: an ideal next step for those who have previously climbed a 6000m trekking peak or for those preparing for an 8000m expedition.
