Amin Brakk is one of the wall hung in the surroundings it is an impressive wall located in a remote valley of the Karakoram and that with its 5850m, forms one of big walls more interesting at international level.

If driving down the Karakoram Highway, we will arrive in Islamabad late afternoon. If we manage to fly the day before, then we will spend today sightseeing in Islamabad. In the evening, we will have a final group meal.
Skardu is a ‘weather-dependent’ airport, which means the planes will only fly here if the visibility allows a line of sight to the runway by the pilot on the approach. Fortunately, the weather is mostly clear in the Karakoram, but local weather conditions can bring clouds and rain from time to time. If we cannot fly, we will travel down to Islamabad by road along the spectacular Karakoram Highway. If we flew up to Skardu, this would be a bonus as it is a fantastic travel experience in its own right. The drive down the Indus River to Islamabad takes two days, so this is an important contingency day to allow for this. If we have flown to Islamabad, this will be a further day for sightseeing in the capital, and your leader will advise the group on the options available for today.
