About Baltoro, K2 & Concordia

The Baltoro Glacier in Baltistan is one of the longest glaciers outside the polar regions. Trekking up its moraine brings you to Concordia, the meeting point of glaciers below K2, Broad Peak, the Gasherbrum group and Masherbrum.

This is the gateway to our Broad Peak, Gasherbrum II and Trango Tower expeditions and to the K2 Base Camp trek.
