INDIA/LADAKH

Ladakh lies at an altitude of more than 3500m. It waits with adventure and beauty to all that come and visit. Tucked between two of the world's greatest mountain ranges, the Himalayas and the Karakoram, this forbidden valley lay hidden from the outside world. Ladakh was before inaccessible because of its hostile terrain and later was banned to tourists due to its strategic geographic position. Its snow-clad peaks, translucent lakes, barren terrain and mystic culture have attracted tourists and explorers from all over the world.

Trekking in Ladakh
For trekking in this reason one need to be physically fit and be prepared to face the austere of backcountry travel as well. This region covered in intensely cold waves and snow i.e. extreme wintry conditions. The fluctuations in the day and night temperature takes its toll. The best season to go on trekking expeditions in this region is between July and September.
Depending upon the time and budget, we can design trekking programs for you. We will take care of all arrangements including camping gear, provisions, portage, staff and all other matters. As the terrain is inhospitable and ecology very fragile, it is advisable to take as much provision and fuel as possible.

The Changtang Plains - Rupshu
Following a wonderful route, this trek offers a very different landscape as you approach the high Tibetan plateau. Lush meadows, vast grazing grounds, natural springs and lakes make it the ideal haunt for roving shepherds (Changpas) who live here. You may see wild asses (Skyangs) which roam these high plateaus. We end the trip at Tsomoriri (4550 m), a beautiful high altitude lake that is also breeding ground to bare headed geese, brahminy ducks and other species. The altitude of the trek is all between 4200m and 5200m.

Zanskar Trek

With its succession of high passes and awe-inspiring environment, this popular trek is a classic - the experience of a lifetime. Starting from Darch in Lahaul/Spiti we cross the snow bound 5090m Shingo La pass into Zanskar. In the desolate, harsh and arid desert land of this region, the numerous Zanskari settlements we come across are marvelous oases in the wilderness. The rocky landscape is a kaleidoscope of colors under the changing sun. The Zanskar River cuts its way through it all, across flatlands and sown canyons, adding a surrealistic touch to the scene. We finally walk into Lamayuru where the trek ends. En route, we see monasteries built as early as the 10th century. Among the ones we visit are Phuktal, Bardan and Karsha.
Although physically taxing, this trek is a tremendously popular, being both a challenge and the ultimate experience for the trekking enthusiast.

Ladakh Ultimate Trek

A very interesting route beginning at the famous Lamayuru monastery, you walk up the less traveled Ripchar Valley with its small villages, nomadic settlements and pastures where you see a wide variety of flowers and many species of birds. Season for this trek is from the end of July to end of August. We cross some high passes with excellent views of the Karakoram and the Zanskar Mountains. The initial part of the trek ends at Chilling, a small village and the only one where Ladakhi metal work is carried out. From Chilling, we cross the river by cable pulley.
Different sets of ponies are on the other side of the river to carry our gear. We then continue on to Markha Valley - considered one of the most beautiful valleys in Ladakh. Here you pass through several Ladakhi settlements as you walk through their fields and observe their life style. Several river crossings are involved, but these are not dangerous. Crossing several more passes, through gorges and wide opens pastures; we end the trek at Matho village. Here we visit the monastery built on a hill between Stok and Stakna, the only monastery belonging to the Sakyapa order. It is worth visiting this monastery for the beautiful view it has over the valley.
