Additional Info:
Spantik in the center-background. The famous saddle is clearly visible.
More specifically, as most of you must have recognised, this is Fairy Meadows.
Another easily recognisable place, it's the track leading to Lake Saiful Maluk from the town of Naran.
Not Rama Lake but the valley leading to it.
Definitely not the Astore Valley, is for sure the KKH. Might be the stretch at Bunji in the Diamir Valley where you get off the KKH and drive south-east towards Astore.
To be exact this is Passu and the massif you see in the background is known as the famous Passu Cones, the most prominent of which (centre-background) is called the Passu Cathedral.
It's at the north-east side of Nanga Parbat. Trekking a little southwards from here gives you amazing views of the feared Rupal Face.
Che halio brother. Where exactly do you hail from?
Well you really can't ever decide on the best with the kinda places Pakistan has.
The Chitral National Park is snowed shut and Rama Lake would be hell to trek to. Naran and Shogran can be reached by jeep if your lucky with the weather while Fairy Meadows is a tough trek in the snow, but still doable. All the other places shown in the pictures are easily accessible.

...BtW are u a tourist planner?
The question remains whether you plan to travel alone, with family, with friends. All have different expenses.
. It all depends on what your groupd of friends is like, who you are travelling with and what is you age range. By age, actually what matters is if you are a group of care free college students (you can travel cheap and are not really into exploring it all) a bunch of university/hostel fellows who are mostly even closer then brothers (it do not matter if you have spacy rooms, you are used to hostel and have no problem sharing the bed n blanket with ALL those friends, yeah, get them all in there together) or it is a group of office colleagues traveling to get away from the hectic office routine (in that case you look for more peaceful and better planned tour AND everyone needs his own bed, even room in some cases)
