The Nanga Parbat trek through Rupal Valley offers stunning views of the Rupal Face, a 5000-meter-high panorama of the “Naked Mountain.” Locally known as Diamir, meaning “abode of fairies,” Nanga Parbat features dramatic folklore and breathtaking landscapes. As Pakistan’s second highest peak and the ninth in the world, it stands at 8126 meters with three faces: Raikot, Diamir, and Rupal. The trek from Rupal Valley to the base camp takes 5-6 hours, offering close views of the peak. For adventurers, the trek can extend to the challenging Mazino Pass at 5400 meters, providing even more spectacular sights.
