After breakfast, drive from Batakundi to Gilgit. En route stop at Babusar top and proceed to Raikot bridge and take a jeep ride up to Tatto. From Tatto walk/ride a pony up to Fairy Meadows. Upon arrival, check in to hotel for overnight stay.
It is about 3 hours trek to the base camp of Nanga Parbat (The killer mountain). The first one hour section of the track is flat and then there is an uphill to get to the view point through juniper trees. From the view point onwards, the track is again easier in the lush meadows all the way to the lap of the killer mountain. Enjoy the striking scenery and the cool breeze and return to Fairy Meadows for overnight stay. Usually the weather remains clear during the first part of the day and Nanga Parbat gradually hides into mist afterwards. It is therefore the earlier part of the day is well recommended for a day hike to the base camp.
After breakfast, walk down to Tatto and catch the jeep for a downhill ride to KKH and proceed to Hunza. For lunch, Rakaposhi Viewpoint is the recommended place with scenic view of the mountain and glacier. Proceed to Hunza and transfer to hotel.

Early morning drive up to the Sunrise Point at Duikar (the old pasture now a hub of tourist resorts) located over Altit Valley providing splendid views of Hunza & Nagar Valleys and the magnificent mountain peaks guarding the valleys.
