This beautiful and famous peak, also known as Golden Peak, is located in the Rakaposhi and Haramosh massif, near the Barpu and Garumbar glaciers. Its elevation is 7,027 meters. The approach to the mountain leads through the beautiful Shigar Valley.

The expedition begins with a flight to Islamabad, from where we will fly to the heart of Baltistan - Skardu. The flight is operated by local airline PIA with Airbus A320 aircraft. From Skardu, we will travel by jeep to the village of Aroundu, where the illusion of civilization ends and our home will become our tents.

The approach to Base Camp (BC) is relatively short by local standards - just 3 days of trekking. Each day, we will set up our "moving BC" with the help of local porters, a cook, liaison officer, and other members of the expedition.

The classic ascent route follows the southeast ridge, and usually, three high camps are established along the way. This route is relatively technically easy and quite safe. Spantik is generally considered one of the easier 7,000-meter peaks and is an excellent entry point to the world above 7,000 meters.

Of course, the difficulty of the ascent depends not only on weather conditions but also on the physical and mental condition of each participant, as well as their essential experience in high-altitude climbing. We strongly recommend previous experience at altitudes of 6,000 meters.

Spantik is often used as a testing peak before the first expedition to an 8,000-meter summit. Every participant must be prepared for the challenges associated with high altitude, isolation, oxygen deprivation, cold, and harsh weather. Of course, we are here to assist with all the experience we have gained from similar climbs.

Camp I is located at around 4,450 meters, and the climb to it follows a technical trail, about 8 km from Base Camp.
Camp II is at 5,300 meters.
Camp III is at 6,050 meters.

Some sections of the ascent route between the camps will be equipped with fixed ropes to ensure our safety and smooth progress, as well as an easier descent. Climbing from Camp II to Camp III is truly spectacular, with each camp positioned on a small summit of the southeast ridge offering 360-degree views.

Acclimatization and the division of collective tasks on the mountain are based on rotation between expedition members. The summit day will be particularly challenging, with an elevation gain of nearly 1,000 meters at high altitudes.

Each participant must be aware of the risks associated with working in such terrain and must be capable of moving independently and responsibly in this environment.
