The K2 Winter Summit Expedition is the hardest and most prestigious climb in the world. Rising to 8,611 m (28,251 ft), K2 is the second-highest mountain on Earth and is located in Pakistan’s Karakoram Range. Nicknamed the “Savage Mountain”, K2 has a fearsome reputation even in summer. In winter, conditions become almost impossible: –60°C temperatures, hurricane-force winds, avalanches, and near-zero weather windows. For decades, K2 remained the last 8,000 m peak unclimbed in winter, until a Nepali team achieved the historic first winter ascent in January 2021.

This year, I had an opportunity to trek to K2 Basecamp, and I chose to go with Active Adventure. I must say, the entire experience was absolutely outstanding. The owner, Imran Shigri, is one of the most cooperative, humble, and genuinely caring people I’ve met. He made sure everything ran smoothly from start to finish. Every aspect of the trek was perfectly organized, from the camps to the food, the guide (Akbar), and the porters. The arrangements were comfortable, well-managed. If you're considering a trip to K2 Basecamp or any adventure in the region, I highly recommend Active AdventurePK. Their professionalism and hospitality truly set them apart. It was an unforgettable experience, and I’m grateful to have shared it with such an amazing team.
Amazing experience. Imran assembled a great support team for our K2 Basecamp and GGLA trek. The support staff were professionals and knew what they were doing. Besides their knowledge, they were super patient and helpful in every way. I will not hesitate reaching out to Imran Shigri and highly recommend Active Adventure Pk if you are considering K2 Basecamp or any other adventure. Thank you Imran Bhai for your service.
The best base camp in the Karakoram! We had the best food, tents, accommodations, staff and comfort of any of the Broad Peak and K2 base camps this past summer. Every other climber and trekker that came by commented on how much better our base camp was than any other in the Karakoram. The food was fantastic. After four 8000 meter peaks this was the only one I never lost any weight on because we ate so well! The staff also treated women equally to men something I saw the opposite of with many other companies. I am looking forward to using them again next year on Nanga Parbat. If you want the best in Pakistan contact Imran at ActiveAdventurePK!
