TRIP OVERVIEW
Patundas is a high pasture perched between two enormous glaciers. The climb from Borith Lake or Passu is steep, but short enough to fit into a week.
From the meadow you look straight across at Passu Sar, Shispare, Batura and the tumbling icefalls below.
It is our favourite recommendation for travellers with limited time who still want a genuine high-camp experience.
