About the expedition
The Hunza Classic is our signature short trip, perfect for first-time visitors to Pakistan who want to feel the warmth of the Karakoram without committing to a full 3-week expedition. We spend most of our time in the heart of the Hunza Valley, with two days on the road along the legendary Karakoram Highway.
This is a cultural and scenic trip rather than a trekking expedition. You’ll walk between villages, climb to viewpoints and explore forts, but there are no high-altitude treks. Anyone in average fitness can enjoy this trip end to end.
