Many of the mountaineers climb on the giants of Baltoro Glacier, whereas not far is the superb Charakusa valley with isolated towers and superb granite spires which are out of the world. In the north east of Hushe, Charakusa valley possesses some of the best rock climbing peaks in the world. The Fati peak, Neza peak and Farhat peak presents unique climbing opportunities for rock enthusiasts. The valley is located 2-3 days by foot from Hushe valley. K7 (6934m), first climbed in 1984 by a Japanese expedition, and Link Sar (7041m) form a ridge north-east of the upper Tsarak Tsa Glacier. K7’s granite face is one of the world’s largest.
