Tarishing/Rupal valley information required about road condition etc

[Zia1967]

I am planning a road trip from Karachi to Astore and Tarishing/Rupal valley from 20th of this month(June). I have been to Astore and Rama(PTDC) few years back. Since I am traveling first time to Tarishing, therefore, would like to have below information about the area.

1. Any good hotel in Gorikot village for family, contact details if available.
2. Road condition from Gorikot to Tarishing and Rupal. Can I take my Corolla 2017 on this road or need to hire jeep from Gorikot.
3. Any suggestions for night stay in Tarishing or Rupal. Any views about Rupal Resort?
4. How long is the Nanga Parbat track, at least for enjoying its beauty.
5. I assume the road from Astore Turn from KKH to Astore and then to Gorikot is in Okay condition and suitable for any type of cars, am I correct?

Regards,
Zia

Thanks!
Regret late respond as busy continuously in office, family and on some ongoing projects.
Due to uncertainty, I just out back from Wazir Mahal(Gorikot) but the jeep took us very near to Nanga Parbat first base camp, way after Rupal village and hence just have to hike about an hour.
Additionally I took advantage of visiting Minimarg and Domel next day as the place is now open for common public with conditions of CNIC, Covid vaccine proof, 4X4 vehicle and onsite registration at Chilum. Anyhow both places were very beautiful and less crowded as well.
Road conditions from Gorikot to Chilum were OKay but after Chilum, roads were in good conditions.
Wazir Mahal is excellent place to stay having excellent ambience, however the room conditions are OK, charged me 16000/night. Prado Vz rented for Tarshing and Rupal at Rs. 12000 and 21000 for Minimarg from Gorikot.
