Notes For the Trip
Road conditions vary in this part of the mountains. This may result in longer travel times. In case of unavoidable road blockage that prevents travel, we will be responsible for managing your lodging and food during this extra time. However, you will need to cover the expenses for the extra days.
It should be noted that climbing permits are not guaranteed for individuals who have previously violated mountaineering rules in Pakistan, as they may be rejected due to past misconduct or violations.
Any additional services beyond the itinerary or possible changes during the tour will incur extra charges, and these changes should be discussed with the guide beforehand.
If flights to Gilgit from Islamabad are canceled, be prepared for a 12 to 14-hour road journey via Islamabad Naran Hunza.
Money paid in advance for permits is completely nonrefundable in case of any individuals or expedition cancellation.
