Trekking in Pakistan is fast becoming an interest of the global walking community. Pakistan’s northern areas are home world’s three great mountain ranges. These include the incredible Karakoram, the grand Himalayas, and, last but not least, the amazing Hindukush. The rich natural environment is made of mountains, glaciers, rivers, streams, lakes, pastures, etc. The rugged yet beautiful landscape of northern areas makes it a perfect destination for trekking in Pakistan.
Our Mountain Travel Agency’s expertise particularly lies in tours, treks, and expedition assistance in northern Pakistan. Moreover, it is important to mention that we are equally involved in tourism-related activities throughout Pakistan with the same volume.
Born in northern areas of Pakistan and comprising a diverse team from young minds to experienced team members, we at Alpine Adventure Guides understand the strengths, weaknesses, and, most importantly, the potential for improvement of the tourism industry in Pakistan.
We understand the changing travel patterns and the importance of plans/itineraries compatible with international routes for on-the-go travelers. Our experienced staff is the best in realizing and responding to our guest’s needs for customized plans.
Our security-centered approach towards designing plans and itineraries and providing free consultation on all matters while planning new itineraries makes us different.
Most of our staff, including porters, drivers, tour guides, scouts, and event managers, belong to different towns and villages in northern areas. Hired on merit and competence, they better understand tour cycles, from planning to executing tours, be it road trips or trekking tours in the mountains.
We hope you enjoy your time on our website, and please do not hesitate to contact us for further information or assistance.

What Our Traveller Say About Us
Yugala Priti Wright and Jeffrey Thomas Wright
I highly recommend Ali Saltoro and his company if you are interested in doing a mountain climbing or trekking expedition. He is very organized, perfectly arranging all of the logistics for my team’s two month trip to the Gilgit Baltistan region. Jeff Wright and I successfully summited K6 Central in the Nangmah valley, making the first ascent of this peak. The base camp team that Ali had put together for us, made sure we were well taken care of
Our trip from Geneva to Skardu was probably one of the fastest in history, as we didn’t even leave the Islamabad airport, before flying out to Skardu with Ali. He arranged for our excess luggage to be driven along the Karakoram Highway to meet us in Skardu, and provided everything we needed for a deluxe basecamp, covering kitchenware, solar panels, communication devices, helicopter rescue deposit, sleep and mess tents, and even a cricket bat.
He made sure we quickly got through the military checkpoints along the road to Hushe/Kande and always had the right contacts to get things done, and quickly.
If you know anything about Pakistan, you know how important that is!
We always felt safe and in contact with him. The rescue would come if, God forbid, we actually needed it.
Ali Saltoro and his team at Alpine Adventure Guides are excellent, and you will certainly be in good hands!

I went to Pakistan for the first time in 2008. When we discover this country, this people, these smiles, these high and beautiful summits of the planet, we can only go back… I met Ali and his agency Alpine Adventure Guides in 2013. He organized all the logistics for us to reach the Nanga Parbat base camp in winter, and stay there for the duration of the expedition. Everything was just perfect: the atmosphere, the equipment, the timing, the food… everything was in place to ensure that the expedition was smooth and went smoothly. We only had to focus on our goal, without stress since the logistics were managed with a master's hand. The food at the base camp is very varied, well prepared, with a lot of specialties from all countries. It may or may not be spicy depending on our request. The logistics are well-oiled, without downtime between transport, trek, base camp ... Ali also knows all the history of ascents in Pakistan. It is a mine of information, anecdotes, stories…. We can spend very pleasant evenings listening to it when it is snowing outside and we cannot go to the mountains. He is also a mountaineer who knows the mountain, its dangers since he has already climbed the C4 of some 8000 in Pakistan. In addition to the organization Ali has a long arm, especially with the army since he alone can have permits to ascend the mountains still untouched by Pakistan on the border with India, China, or he can still extend a visa when it is no longer valid. He can also find last-minute solutions for us or even arrange our stay as well as possible. Short, I no longer ask myself which agency I'm going to go with. I give my ideas to Ali and he organizes all the logistics of the expedition. And I know there won't be any last minute surprises! I no longer have any stress on the logistics. So yes, I recommend Alpine Adventure Guides to everyone!

In 2013 I took part in the expedition to Gasherbrum II. The expedition was organized by Ali Muhammad, the owner of Alpine Adventure Guides Pakistan. Our offer included all services Islamabad-BC-Islamabad with full board in the BC. I can recommend Ali as a responsible, reliable, helpful and trustworthy partner. He is always ready to solve all problems which might occur on the way. Ali provided us a very good cook and his assistant who prepared meals in the BC. He can give you most of the up to date information about climbing routes, route conditions, statistics and any other special details since he is a climber by himself and knows the region very well. All necessary papers before and after the expedition were prepared in time. So Ali would be happy to help you with your expedition in all possible ways, don´t hesitate to ask him.

Ali Saltoro and his team at Alpine Adventure Guides Pakistan are second to none. I was part of an expedition team living and working on a remote glacier in North East Pakistan for two months; a remote and hostile place. The expedition simply could not have happened without Ali and his team at the helm. From logistical organization, to safety, to best tasting food I have ever eaten at a base camp. Every aspect is covered, nothing is too much trouble and Ali has an incredible network of people, both within and outside the country, to make things happen fast. I will be returning to Pakistan in the near future to attempt my second 8000m peak and I look forward to working with Ali and AAG again.

Traveling with Alpine Adventure Guides Pakistan was a great experience - they took care of all my needs in a professional manner and the trip went off without a hitch - I highly recommend them as a provider.

Я рекомендую Али Мухамад и его компанию после моего треккинга к К2 в Августе 2016 г. Хорошая организация логистики благодаря Али. Палатка и питание входит в стоимость треккинга, приготовлением пищи занимается команда Али. Мулы используются для переноса тяжелых вещей. С собой несете только легкий рюкзак, бутылку воды и фотокамеру. Внимательное отношение к клиенту, готовность изменить маршрут, сделать его индивидуальным ув ититититисиотитити 2-3 дня треккинга могут сопровождаться днем отдыха. Необходимо взять аптечку, солнцезащитный крем, треккинговые кросовки, пуховой спальник. Так как в Пакистане распространена острая пища, то нужно заранее согласовать кухню с Али. Спокойные и доброжелательные люди, к русским и иностранцам хорошее отношение.

I have known Ali Muhammad Saltoro and his tour company, Alpine Adventure Guides Pakistan for two years in both a personal and professional capacity. As leader and founder of the Karakoram Anomaly project (www.karakoram.co) - a multidisciplinary endeavor to investigate why, while mountain glaciers in other parts of the world are receding and shrinking due climate change, many Karakoram glaciers are advancing. The effect, known as the Karakoram Anomaly, has drawn the attention of scientists around the world. My team and I had worked with Alpine Adventure Guides to add to the understanding of the glaciers' behavior and the risk they present to people living in the region, particularly in respect to the risk of glacial lake outburst floods. The Karakoram Anomaly project comprised a complex two-month expedition into the heart of the remote Central Karakoram Range to carry out scientific research, community development, filming and mountaineering activities. Mr. Muhammad has been our tour guide and in country organizer for the expedition to Shimshal valley. His resourcefulness and capacity to manage challenging logistics have been invaluable to our project and I would recommend his services for any mountaineering or scientific endeavor in the Karakoram Mountains. Being able to adapt to differing individual and expedition needs as well as fluctuating budgets, Alpine Adventure Guides has enabled us to carry out a successful expedition. I can confidently vouch for Ali's personal and professional qualities. I know him to be an approachable and knowledgeable person with good communication skills in English and excellent knowledge of expedition and mountain logistics. From my contact with him, I know him as an honest, reliable and friendly person, having the skills, resources and contacts to organize successful expeditions to the top of K2 as well as the farthest regions of the Karakoram. In my eight-year experience as expedition leader and mountaineer, therefore, wholeheartedly recommend Ali Muhammad Satoro and his company, Alpine Adventure Guides Pakistan to organize your expedition to the Karakoram.
