Places to visit in Nangma Valley Meadows
Nangma Valley Meadows are the high grass camps trekkers reach on day two of the Hushe approach — open flats around 3,950 m (≈12,959 ft) beneath the Towers of Nangma Valley, with K6 and the main big-wall cirque filling the skyline.
Most itineraries camp first at Mingulu Broq (~3,500 m), then walk a shorter day to these upper meadows for the classic Nangma sightseeing day — the same block used on our 5 days Nangma Valley tour by air and 8 days Nangma tour by road.

What to see at the meadows
The headline is the amphitheatre of vertical granite above grass — the same walls climbers base for Amin Brakk and neighbouring spires. Trekkers do not need ropes: a day hike from camp covers viewpoints toward the Towers of Nangma Valley and side ridges when weather is clear.
Pair this stop with the wider Nangma Valley sightseeing hub (Kanday, Hushe routing) and Skardu tour packages for flights, Khaplu nights, and jeep logistics.

Nangma Valley Meadows FAQs
Where are the Nangma Valley Meadows?
They are the upper grass camps in the Nangma side valley above Hushe — typically around 3,950 m, one trekking day above Mingulu Broq.
How do I reach the meadows from Skardu?
Drive Skardu to Khaplu, jeep to Kanday Village, trek to Mingulu Broq, then continue to the upper meadows. PTG includes this routing on Nangma Valley tour packages.
What is the difference between Mingulu Broq and the upper meadows?
Mingulu Broq is the first camp (~3,500 m) on the walk in. The Nangma Valley Meadows hub describes the higher flats (~3,950 m) used for tower views and K6 panoramas on the main sightseeing day.
When is the best time to visit Nangma meadows?
Plan late June through August when bridges, grass camps, and day-hike trails are most reliable — the same window as climbing teams in the valley.
Does PTG run a fixed package to the meadows?
Yes — the 5-day Nangma tour by air and 8-day by road both include two camp nights and a full day toward these meadows. Share dates on WhatsApp for a final quote.
