The Spantik Base Camp Trek is one of the most beautiful journeys in Pakistan's Karakoram. Known as the Golden Peak (7,027 m), Spantik glows at sunrise and sunset, making it one of the most photogenic mountains in the world. This trek offers not only magnificent views of Rakaposhi, Diran, Malubiting, and Ultar Sar, but also takes adventurers through the cultural heart of Hunza and Nagar Valley.
Lasting 12-14 days, the Spantik Trek is shorter than other Karakoram expeditions, yet it provides everything trekkers dream of: lush alpine meadows, glacier crossings, traditional villages, and unforgettable mountain panoramas. Whether you are an aspiring climber or a trekker seeking stunning Himalayan scenery, the Spantik Base Camp Trek delivers a perfect balance of adventure and accessibility.

I just came back from Snow Lake - Hispar La with Active Adventures. I simply don’t have the words to describe how incredible this experience was. Everything starting from day one to the finish line was extraordinary. Food was the best I have ever had on any expedition before. The staff, and tour guides were so supportive and respectful that I didn’t feel like a solo female traveller at all despite being the only woman on the expedition. When I got sick after crossing Hispar Pass due to altitude, I was taken care of as best as possible. I will never forget the consideration and care shown by the team. I am already planning my next trek with Active adventure for the year 2027 as we speak. I would recommend everyone who is interested in doing long, hard and arduous treks to choose this company and Imran Bhai- of course. Big applause for the man and his team.

Incredible adventure. Two day trek, climb and scramble through Chundah Valley, camped overnight at 3500mts then next day hard trek to the snowfields and peak of Chundah at 4500mts. Imran organised a driver to skilfully drive us hugging the mountain edge, then a porter and guide who carried tents and sleeping stuff. Really strenuous, epic views, remote, good food, peace beyond belief. Super hard, super team, super views, super snow
This year, I had an opportunity to trek to K2 Basecamp, and I chose to go with Active Adventure. I must say, the entire experience was absolutely outstanding. The owner, Imran Shigri, is one of the most cooperative, humble, and genuinely caring people I’ve met. He made sure everything ran smoothly from start to finish. Every aspect of the trek was perfectly organized, from the camps to the food, the guide (Akbar), and the porters. The arrangements were comfortable, well-managed. If you're considering a trip to K2 Basecamp or any adventure in the region, I highly recommend Active AdventurePK. Their professionalism and hospitality truly set them apart. It was an unforgettable experience, and I’m grateful to have shared it with such an amazing team.
This year I used the services of the Active AdventurePK agency in the Nanga Parbat expedition and was very satisfied with the quality of the services offered. Plus, I have a very good relationship with the owner of the agency, Imran, who is an excellent organizer,highly recommend
Amazing experience. Imran assembled a great support team for our K2 Basecamp and GGLA trek. The support staff were professionals and knew what they were doing. Besides their knowledge, they were super patient and helpful in every way. I will not hesitate reaching out to Imran Shigri and highly recommend Active Adventure Pk if you are considering K2 Basecamp or any other adventure. Thank you Imran Bhai for your service.
