Karomber Lake
Karomber Lake (Yak Sarai) ’95
The trek through Ishkoman and Broghil Valleys is commonly know in Pakistan as “Along the Wakhan Corridor“. It runs inside Pakistani territory almost in parallel to the Wakhan corridor. This is one of the most amazing treks in Pakistan’s North because it offers everything that a trekker encounters during different trekking expeditions i.e. lush green meadows, high passes, glaciers, rivers, and some of the most beautiful lakes including the magnificent Karomber. Tarar sb’s “Yak Sarai” vividly describers the journey through this trek. |
