Trip Details
Amin Brakk is widely considered to be one of the most magnificent and sought-after peaks in the world, though it is also one of the most challenging to conquer (especially when compared to Trango Towers). While the exact height of the peak is debated, it is generally believed to stand at 5,850m or higher. Amin Brakk is located in the Nangma Valley, which is known as one of the top 10 rock climbing destinations in the Karakoram region of Baltistan. In 1995, the peaks were named after the respective sons of Spanish expedition members, Amin Brakk and Nawaz Brakk.
