Hiking
The Karakorum is a mountain range in Central Asia that is up to 8,611 m high and includes the K2, the second highest mountain on earth, as well as three other Eight-thousanders, namely Gasherbrum I, Broad Peak and Gasherbrum II. The Karakoram joins the main chain of the Himalayas to the north-west. The high mountain massif is separated by the valleys of the Shyok and the Indus but is not regarded as an independent mountain range.
