12 Looking Back Towards Fairy Meadows On Trek To Nanga Parbat Base Camp  [12 of 15]


We walked from Fairy Meadows through the quiet pine covered valley and passed the Beyel camping site (3500m) after an hour. We follow the ridgeline ever upward, with Rakhiot Glacier flowing on our left side and the summit of Nanga Parbat in the clouds straight ahead. The Rakhiot Glacier stretches for about six km, sometimes with rock rubble on top and other times gleaming white.
