Fairy Meadows is famous for its beautiful lush green plateaus and World’s ninth biggest mountain Nanga Parbat (the Killer Mountain) and located in Diamer District of Gilgit-Baltistan Pakistan, at an altitude of about 3,300 meters above the sea level. The place was named Fairy Meadows in 1953 by an Australian climber Hermann Bhul due to its mesmerizing beauty. Fairy Meadows is also called “Heaven on Earth” due to its matchless beauty. In 1995, the Government of Pakistan declared Fairy Meadows as a National Park. Fairy Meadows is approachable by a 12 km long jeep track starting from Raikhot bridge on Karakoram Highway to the village Tattu. Further from Tattu, it takes about three to four hours hiking by a 5km track or by horse to Fairy Meadows. The meadows are also home to many species of wildlife. Mammals found are brown bears, musk deer, Marco Polo's sheep, red fox, Markhor, and Himalayan ibex.
