Islamabad: Efforts
of the tour operators have yielded fruit and the Gilgit-Baltistan Council Secretariat has finally issued a
notification lifting the ban imposed on trekking in the Baltoro, Gandoro-La,
Hushe, range.
The ban had
created difficulties for the tour operators and tourists who wanted to visit
the region.
While lifting
the ban, trekking in this particular region has been conditioned to approval
from “defense agencies”. The notification also says that the tourists who come
to trek in the region will have to be accompanied by a Defense Liaison Officer.
