Mountaineering in Ladakh


We would like to offer you an opportunity to share in an adventure that captures the essence of the mountaineering experience. Too often mountaineering is judged by success or failure, were the mountain is "conquered" or a climber is "defeated". More perceptively the mountain is eternally victorious and a climber who has tested himself physically, emotionally and spiritually will always come away from the experience fulfilled.


LADAKH is mountaineers delight with numerous mountain ranges all across the region. Mountain climbing and trekking are physically demanding and medical facilities are very limited in the remote areas of Ladakh. You must certify that you are in good health as part of the expedition.


 




Foreign climbing expeditions are required to obtain permission from the Indian Mountaineering Foundation for climbing a peak. A booking fee, based on the height and popularity of the allotted peak is charged and a Liaison Officer is assigned to every climbing team. The minimum period required for processing applications is six months.

POPULAR PEAKS:

STOK KHANGRI:- This elegant 6153 mts. mountain is an ideal peak for amateur Himalayan mountaineers. Stands very close to LEH and is after the STOK village. Competent trekkers with experience using Crampons and Ice Axe should find the ascent of Stok Khangri a challenging but attainable goal.

The shortest time required is 4 days but its advisable to do this during the trek as you will get time for acclimatization. Best season July – August – September.

Mentok 1 requires some delicate climbing but Mentok 2 is fairly simple climb going up steep slopes.

The shortest time required is 4 days for the climb. Two days is required for going and coming back from TSOMORIRI LAKE by jeep as the starting point is 240 kms. from Leh.
