A 6-day escape to the mountains where the views are wild, the vibes are chill, and the air hits different. We’re heading to Rakaposhi Base Camp Trek for some trekking and camping under the stars, then a fun hike to Baskochi Meadows. Expect glacial trails, bonfire nights, and some seriously unreal scenery. Perfect if you’re into nature, good company, and getting off the grid (but not too far)

Islamabad to Minapin via Naran
