TRIP OVERVIEW
Diran is a beautiful snow pyramid rising above the Minapin and Bagrot valleys, climbed by its north-west face and ridge.
The route is moderate in grade but requires careful avalanche judgement, and the summit day is long.
Approach and base camp share the lovely Minapin meadows used by the Rakaposhi Base Camp trek.
