This trip is a fascinating experience of an easy stroll
along with a flower-strewn gully between the lateral moraine of Battura Glacier and the mountains. It provides breathtaking
views of high Peaks like Ultar (7388), Shispare
(7611m), Passu peak (7284m), Karun Koh
(7164m), and others in the Shimshal region. From Fatimahil you
can have an unforgettable view of the formidable North face of
Battura massif. After halfway between Kukhil and Guchsum is the
wide plateau of Shelmin where the Urthum brook flows from the
North. This is much tougher route than Kilik or Mintaka but not
a technical one. The scenery will simply sweep you off your
feet.
