AoA,
We have planned a trip for Fairy Meadows and Nanga Parbat Base Camp in mid june. This thread https://www.pakwheels.com/forums/road-trips-vacations/210427-fairy-meadows-expedition-2013-a has been very informative and solved almost all our queries, thanks to the detailed responses of the travel gurus
We are 6 people, we are taking our own camping equipment and as recommended we are also taking our own food and related equipment. We have decided to pitch our camp at FM, and trek towards the Base camp early next morning.
One thing I would like to know is that at almost every place Gurus recommend making a round trip from Fairy Meadows to Base Camp and back, that is of 10-12 hours. Can't we camp at the base camp? If not, then what are the problems there which one may face if they decide to camp for one night at the base camp?
Also, you may note that we have a little bit of experience of trekking. But no experience of camping. Would you recommend us to stay the night at Base camp?
Thanks in advance.
