Laila Peak Expedition

Laila peak expedition is located in the Karakoram mountain of Pakistan.

Laila Peak is one of the most beautiful mountains in Pakistan, if not the entire globe, with its immaculate needle-shaped summit. The summit is synonymous with its west face, which forms a large ramp with an almost consistent grade as it descends the mountains. Its northern and eastern sides are composed of sharply contrasted granite. The peak is located in the Masherbrum Mountains of Baltistan, east of the Gondogoro valley and west of the Chogolisa valley. Crossing the Gondogoro La from Concordia and K2 base camp, the majority of people have viewed the peak.
