Trekking in Ladakh

LADAKH offers great scope for undertaking adventure activities amidst breathtaking landscape & rugged beauty.

Ladakh has been a great attraction for the past few decades for the trekkers from around the world. There are many areas to trek around Ladakh like Nomadic area of (Rupshu & Kharnak), Zangskar, Nubra Valley, Kargil, and Leh itself. We cannot express it in words how wonderful place Ladakh is for trekking. It's our endeavor to offer you some of the best trekking locals in Ladakh taking to isolated villages or monastic settlements, or across a ridge to enjoy the sheer beauty of the lunar mountainscape.

Trekking in Ladakh offers wonderful opportunity for direct interaction with unique cultures and the natural world. The first westerner in this region was a Portuguese traveler Diogo d'Almeida, who crossed the high passes in 1600.

LADAKH is the highest, most remote and least populated region in the whole country. It has become a popular destination for aficionados of wild mountains and unique culture.

The environment in LADAKH is fragile as the survival of the inhabitants depends upon the land, despite its apparent starkness. As such, it's our endeavor to keep our trekking locals clean and pollution free and request same to the trekkers. Every one should ensure that no garbage is left undisposed at camp site. Plastic containers and polythene wrappers must be incinerated or brought back, while other types of garbage should be properly buried.

Description: MARKHA valley, the classic trekking route takes you through some of the most beautiful villages, were you can explore the traditional life style of LADAKH, the crumbling forts and the Buddhist Gompas scattered throughout.
The meandering Markha River is our guide; we follow it through groves of apricot, willow, popular & Himalayan oak trees and gaze up at the cathedral-like structures perched on the cliffs which tower above us. Along the way, we are likely to spot wildlife such as deer, blue sheep and Ibex serenely grazing in the valley. Monasteries hold 'pujas' or prayer ceremonies in the mornings and evenings, prayer flags are strung up on high peaks, monks wander the trails and villagers bring offerings to the Gompas.

Caravans Trek - Ladakh & Changtang: RUPSHU VALLEY

The people of Ladakh have lived for centuries in barren, inhospitable terrain. But the Ladakh for tourists and the Ladakh for trekkers and climbers are two different worlds. Many people stay at Leh, visit monasteries and enjoy the barrenness. But if you can manage some treks, there is nothing quite like Tsomoriri. Heading southeast, we cross remote mountain passes to reach the 4500 meter Changtang plateau and Lakes Tsokar & Tso Moriri, where the Tibetan nomads of Rupshu Kharnak live, as they have throughout history. This region is famed for its good grazing, and the nomadic population has traditionally transmigrated from the high plains of Tibet in search of nutritious grass for their livestock, salt to trade, and a market for their butter and wool. The high-altitude brakish lakes of Tso Moriri and Tso Kar, backed by high snow-peaks, are stunning, and we camp along the meandering rivers that feed into the lakes. Being a high altitude trek of an average of always above 4000 mts., one should be highly acclimatized and physically fit. The true beauty of the region lies in its vast untamed space, wildlife & nomadic inhabitants.

Markha Valley Nomad's Trek

Kharnak is a remote region situated between Indus Valley and Zangskar, on the western edge of Rupshu. The area is sparsely inhabited by semi-nomadic peoples. Their simple winter villages and summer encampments are the only signs of civilization you'll see on this demanding high altitude trek.
The journey begins in the green Markha Valley, a bit lower in elevation, where we have plenty of time to explore the traditionally Ladakhi villages, the crumbling forts and the Buddhist gompas scattered throughout.
When the trek enters Kharnak after crossing Zalungkarpo-la pass 5050mts. the trek gets tough as you are always above 4000mts. Changtang plateau and Lake Tso Moriri, where the Tibetan nomads of Kharnak live as they have throughout history. This region is famed for its good grazing, and the nomadic population has traditionally transmigrated from the high plains of Tibet in search of nutritious grass for their livestock, salt to trade, and a market for their butter and wool. The high-altitude brakish lakes of Tso Moriri and Tso Kar, backed by high snow-peaks, are stunning, and we camp along the meandering rivers that feed into the lakes.
