BALTORO KANGRI EXPEDITION

 Baltoro Kangri Expedition (7,312m) – Karakoram


 Discover the Hidden Jewel of the Karakoram

Baltoro Kangri (7,312m), also known as the Golden Throne, rises proudly above the mighty Baltoro Glacier in Pakistan’s Gilgit-Baltistan region. With its elegant pyramid shape and commanding views of iconic peaks like K2, Broad Peak, Gasherbrum I & II, and Masherbrum, Baltoro Kangri offers one of the most visually spectacular and less-crowded high-altitude climbs in the Karakoram.

This technical yet achievable 7000m peak is perfect for mountaineers seeking a serious adventure without the extreme technical challenges of an 8000er. At Chogholingsa Trek & Tours, we offer fully supported Baltoro Kangri expeditions with expert guides, seamless logistics, and a deep respect for the land and its people.
