Nangma Valley is one of the best rock climbing areas of Karakoram Baltistan. It boasts excellent areas ranging from moderate to high altitude rock climbing, including the famous Amin Brakk (5850 M) and 5800-meter Great Towers. We have tailored this program to provide maximum opportunity for scaling peaks by selecting independent objectives just setting the base camp at the spectacular grassy site surrounded by soaring granite spires.
