Tourists Resting During Trek To Fairy Meadows Grassland Editorial Photo

Tourists riding on horses back from Fairy Meadows grassland. Fairy Meadows is reachable by a twelve kilometer-long jeepable trek starting from Raikot bridge on Karakoram Highway to the village Tato. Further from Tato, it takes about three to four hours hiking by a five kilometer trek to Fairy Meadows. The grassland is located in the Raikot valley, at one end of the Raikot glacier which originates from the Nanga Parbat and feeds a stream that finally falls in the River Indus. Since 1992, locals have operated camping sites in the area.
