Marvel trek is one of the renowned companies that has been famous for its treks and expeditions ever since its establishment in the year 1998. The Marvel trek team has organized about 377 treks alone to Mt.Everest with many more exciting treks and expeditions to other well-known mountains like Mt.Manaslu, Mt. Kanchenjunga, Mt.Makalu, and others as well. It also organizes expeditions in a few other countries like Bhutan, India, Tibet, and Pakistan.

The Marvel trek team is full of professionals who can provide great help during your adventures with their years of experience in climbing and mountaineering. However, K2 Expedition is the toughest expedition of all.

Mt. K2, the second tallest mountain in the world, lies in the northern part of Pakistan on the border of Pakistan and China. It stands tall at 8,611m(8.611km). The first 6000m of Mt. K2 is full of steep rocks while the remaining portion is a huge snow sea. Out of many attempts to climb this mountain, only a few have succeeded. Every one in four people who reach the summit dies. This has earned the mountain the title of the most terrifying mountain among others. Due to all the unsuccessful attempts, this mountain is often referred to as the ‘savage mountain’, ‘the killer mountain’, etc. Even though Mt.Everest is taller, the hard and bitter weather of Mt.K2 has earned its the title of ‘Mountaineer’s mountain’ or the ‘King of the mountains’. Therefore, K2 Expedition is one of the thrilling climbing ventures.
