We take a guided tour around the ancient forts of Altit and Baltit and will be given a brief presentation about its history and Royal family inside the forts. The forts are located high up in the mountains. They were first used for defensive purposes, but they also served as the seat of power before the political center moved to modern-day Karimabad. Next, we enjoy the sunset at Duikar View Point. It’s a beautiful view of the valley and the surrounding mountains. From here, we get some wonderful sunset views. Dinner and overnight will be in Karimabad, Hunza.
