Werthum Pass Along The Batura Glacier Trek

Package Overview

Werthum (‘millstone’ in Wakhi) is an infrequently crossed nonglaciated pass (5315m) linking the Batura Glacier to Chapursan’s Lupgar Valley to its north.
The pass offers an alternative exit from the upper Batura Glacier, especially attractive for those climbing in the Werthum Valley.
This rugged side valley north of the Batura Glacier has some easy nontechnical snowy peaks, and several technical peaks ranging from 5400m to 5900m at the valley’s head and along the Shireen Maidan (sweet field) Glacier. The views from the pass include the six Batura peaks and Shishpar. Crossing Werthum Pass isn’t technically difficult but requires basic mountaineering skills.
It is recommended that trek may be started from Askole as group can reach up to Concordia being able to see major Baltoro Peaks and return the same route in case of extreme snow conditions and unkind weather situation. We recommend that the member should take high altitude clothing/bedding, rope, crampons, ice axes etc. We also suggest you that come for this trek after having couple of week walking or acclimatized yourself. Come and visit us we will show you the real adventure paradise on earth!!!
