Is Fairy Meadows Worth the Hype? | Hiking in PAKISTAN
Рет қаралды 536,355
Күн бұрынWelcome to Fairy Meadows, one of Pakistan's renowned trekking destinations! In this video, I set out to discover if this popular spot lives up to the hype, and explore a lesser-known part of the trail: Beyal Camp and Nanga Parbat view point.
👀 What to expect
Join me on this hike as I share my firsthand experience of Fairy Meadows, debunking the myth of it being overly touristy. Surprisingly, the trail was calm and peaceful, and I especially enjoyed the part of the trek leading up to Beyal Camp.
🗺️ Trail insights
* duration: 3 hours from the Starting point to Fairy Meadows - 2 hours from Fairy Meadows to Beyal Camp - 1 hour from Beyal camp to Nanga Parbat view point.
* best Time to Visit: We visited in October, avoiding the peak season. Fewer crowds, more serenity!
* don’t skip out on Nanga Parbat view point, which comes just after Beyal Camp.
🌞 About Me:
I'm Flora, a female adventurer passionate about hiking, nature, and exploring off-the-beaten-path destinations. My goal is to show what it's truly like to travel in Pakistan - specifically as a female foreigner - and show that it isn’t like what Western media portrays it to be.

I am sitting here in Amersfoort, Netherlands and it’s cold, dark and rainy. Somehow this video suddenly popped up on my timeline. I am from Pakistan and this made me feel nostalgic, bit of homesick but also gave me a warm feeling inside. Thank you for making this, your style is very simple and relatable and thankfully not like so many pretentious KZfaqrs. Wish you happy times ahead and keep making more of such videos.

A beautiful V-log from two wonderful travelers. Glad to hear the words 'Pakistan is a hiker's paradise' A word of caution to all foreigners who are traveling or visiting Pakistan, please always keep the local civil administration or police in the loop about your whereabouts so that they can provide you proper security. Though Pakistan is generally safe the possibility of any accident or uncalled-for situation could not be overruled which my jeopardize the image of Pakistan and its 250 million people across the globe!

Hello You both are very lucky you have probably visited Pakistan off peak season as one can assume when I saw the snow around and colour of grass is light brown which is the indication that you most probably visited in OCTOBER/ NOVEMBER and that is fully off peak season and if you would come in June / July you would see dozens of groups of young guys and Girls came from every part of Pakistan. Your time to visit this part of Pakistan is off peak season and visit to the area at this time is extremely excellent decision and off course save some money too .

It was magical, captured beautifully. Fairy meadows in Autumn looks magical, thats the beauty of these places that they changte evey season with its own unique beauty, which dates were these exactly when u visited. Also I would agree 100% so many more gems in Pakistan and many even not known to locals and not visited by anyone at all. Did u goto Shandoor the road from Gilgit to Shandur via Phanader is just magical both in Summer and Autumn with both v diff fro each other but Autumn there is iconic, not much big mountains but v beautiful road trip a tough one thou due to bad road. BTW , these videos r so good that very hard to believe these are ur first few vlogs, only complain is subtitles arre hard to read with yellow color.
