This new, thrilling adventure will take one on yak back on the traditional shepherds' route to high pasture grounds. Beginning at the foot of Batura Glacier, whose nearly 65 km length makes it the second longest glacier in the world outside the polar regions, one will traverse the glacier near Malungin, and ride to Yashipirt. From here there are superb views of the Batura Peaks, ranging from 6830m to 7785m, the Kampire Dior Group, ranging from 6931m to 7143m, Shispare (7619m), and Passau Peak (7284m). From Yashipim, retrace one's route back to Passu village, perched comfortably atop one's sure-footed, shaggy friend.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud

It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:

  • It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
  • If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
  • Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.
