Located in the Karakorum Mountains, the road to the summit is gravel, rocky, tippy and bumpy at times. The road is usually impassable from October to June (weather permitting). 4x4 vehicle required. Stay away if you're scared of heights. Expect a trail pretty steep. On the Chinese side, the entire valley around Mintaka Pass is closed to visitors. It has been off limits to foreigners since 1947.
