About this trip
This 7-day private tour takes you to Hunza Valley during blossom season, when cherry and apricot trees turn the landscape red, yellow, and white against a backdrop of snow-capped peaks over 7,000 metres, including Rakaposhi and Ultar.
You'll travel the Karakoram Highway into the valley, taking in panoramic viewpoints, historic forts, and local bazaars, with the timing often coinciding with Novroz, the Central Asian New Year festival celebrated on 21 March.
It's a gentle, guided introduction to Hunza's scenery and culture, mixing light walks with sightseeing rather than serious trekking.
What you'll do
- Take in panoramic views of the Hunza Valley from Karimabad
- Explore the historic Altit and Baltit forts
- Visit Attabad Lake, formed by a landslide, known for its turquoise water
