Khosar Gang Expedition Overview
This “climb only” itinerary is designed for climbers who prefer to organize their logistics independently in Islamabad and Skardu. You’ll only require trekking and climbing services from Apricot Tours. The services for this itinerary start from pick-up at the hotel in Skardu and end with a drop-off back in Skardu. Participants will join the same groups arriving from Islamabad, who have booked the 15-day all-inclusive adventure.
