Trails people plan around
The hikes travelers ask about first.
Skardu · Skardu / Baltistan
Deosai Plateau Walk
The Deosai Plateau walk is a moderate high-altitude outing on open plains above Skardu, often paired with Sheosar Lake viewpoints. Access is seasonal and jeep-dependent; walking segments are exposed and colder than valley trails.
Raikot Bridge / Tato · Astore
Fairy Meadows Trek
The Fairy Meadows trek pairs a steep jeep approach to Tato with a moderate-to-hard forest walk up to high meadows facing Nanga Parbat. Most parties overnight at the meadows; stronger hikers continue toward Beyal the next day.
Skardu · Skardu / Baltistan
K2 Base Camp Trek
The K2 Base Camp trek follows the Baltoro Glacier toward Concordia and the K2 base camp area in Baltistan. It is an expedition-grade multi-day hike requiring permits, local crew, and serious altitude preparation - not a casual valley day walk.
Nathia Gali · Islamabad / Murree
Miranjani Top
Miranjani Top is a moderate-to-hard day hike in the Galyat / Ayubia hills, typically staged from Nathia Gali. It is longer and more demanding than Mushkpuri for many parties, best done with an early start and weather buffer.
Nathia Gali · Islamabad / Murree
Mushkpuri Top
Mushkpuri Top is a moderate day hike from Nathia Gali in the Galyat hills, popular with Islamabad weekenders. Most parties summit and return the same day, with lodging available in Nathia Gali if splitting the trip.

Pipeline Track
Pipeline Track is an easy forest walk linking Dunga Gali and Ayubia in the Galyat hills - a classic family-friendly half-day outing from the Murree corridor. Most parties walk one way and arrange a vehicle at the far end.
