"The musa Peak trek is a hidden gem in the Gilgit-Baltistan region of Pakistan, offering a diverse landscape ranging from the serene Kharfaq Lake to high-altitude alpine ridges. This four-day adventure begins at the Gayeri Resort and takes trekkers through lush meadows and rocky terrain, culminating in a spectacular ridge walk at musa Peak. At the summit, explorers are rewarded with 360-degree panoramic views of the surrounding Karakoram giants, making it a prime location for photography and drone cinematography. The route transitions from the tranquil lakeside at Kharfaq to the high pastures of Chogo Xoo and Bara Lakhaas. It is an ideal trek for those seeking a shorter but physically rewarding expedition that combines cultural village life with raw wilderness. Trekkers can expect cool nights in alpine camps and breathtaking sunrises over the jagged peaks of Baltistan."
