Located in northern Pakistan, on the border with both China and India, the Karakoram is a vast and complex mountain range which includes the greatest concentration of big peaks in the world. KE pioneered treks to the Karakoram in the early 1980's and established many super routes amongst the spectacular high valleys and glaciers of this unspoilt mountain group. The classic approach to K2 and Concordia, the challenging trek to K2 by way of the Gondoro La and the magnificent crossing of Snow Lake and the Hispar La are absolute classics of world trekking. This rugged and endearing part of the world was the place where KE began and has always held a special importance for us.
