Fairy Meadows, named by German climbers (German
Märchenwiese, ″fairy tale meadows″) and locally known as Joot, is a
grassland near one of the base camp sites of the Nanga Parbat, located
in Diamer District, Gilgit-Baltistan. At an altitude of about 3,300
meters above the sea level, it serves as the launching point for
trekkers summiting on the Rakhiot face of the Nanga Parbat. In 1995, the
Government of Pakistan declared Fairy Meadows a National Park.
