A trek to K2 base camp in Pakistan’s Karakoram Range, aptly called the Throne Room of the Mountain Gods, is in the world’s most spectacular mountain region. The fabled expedition and walking route up the Baltoro Glacier to K2 offers truly one of the world’s greatest treks, and justifiably so.

The list of peaks along the way is extensive and each holds a significant place in climbing history.
