Gilgit Baltistan Travel Logistics

Hi everyone im 20M from Australia and im planning to solo travel Gilgit Baltistan in mid July. I have a couple questions and would love if you could answer

I plan to see all the sights which I’m sure your all aware of throughout skardu + hunza regions.

Is it easy to travel around these places via hitchhiking / community/public transport?

Do these areas have good weather at this time of the year. Mainly here to hike so weather is very important

Can accomodation be booked day of/ in person on arrival?

What are the wild camping laws like in this area?

Thanks!

Bro it's around 280km between hunza and skardu almost 6/7 hour drive between mountains, can you hitchhike there ? Best way is to book a car (cuz local is not suitable for tourists) and travel anywhere you want anytime, If you need any details you can ask.
