Travel Story

Fairy Meadows, locally known as Joot, is a grassland near one of the base camp sites of the Nanga Parbat, located in Diamer District, Gilgit-Baltistan.

The Journey:

It starts with a thrilling (and terrifying) jeep ride from Raikot Bridge to Tato Village. From Tato, it is a 3-4 hour hike. The trail is moderate but gains altitude, so take it slow.

Accommodation:

You can rent wooden cabins or camp in tents under the Billion Star Hotel (the clear night sky).

The View:

Waking up to the reflection of the Killer Mountain (Nanga Parbat) in the small lake at Fairy Meadows is a memory that will stay with you forever.
