Skardu Valley
Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan
Skardu Valley is a majestic expanse in Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan, where the Indus and Shigar Rivers meet beneath the towering shadows of the Karakoram and Himalaya ranges. Stretching roughly 40 kilometers in length and 10 kilometers in width, it’s the beating heart of Baltistan and a gateway to some of the world’s highest peaks, including K2, Broad Peak, and the Gasherbrums.
The valley is a dreamscape of contrasts—lush green meadows, sapphire lakes like Upper and Lower Kachura, and the surreal white dunes of the Katpana Cold Desert. Skardu town itself is a hub for trekkers and mountaineers, offering access to legendary routes like the Baltoro Glacier and Concordia. Historical gems like Kharpocho Fort and the ancient Manthal Buddha Rock whisper tales of the region’s rich cultural past.
