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.

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 Lake’s 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. Highlights:- Leh & the Indus Valley, some monastery tours.
Trip profile: 07 days walking with full porterage. Altitude maximum 5450
mts. average 4400 mts. Duration 14 days. Our Service Includes:

and Zangskar, on the western edge of Rupshu. The area is sparsely inhabited by

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

Chaddar "Frozen Blanket" is the only way in and out for Zanskaris in winter
times, because the road is closed due to heavy snowfall at high passes. It has
been the traditional trade route in winter for centuries. The trek takes you
into gorges and temperatures below (-) 25-degree centigrade, and staying
overnight in caves and walking on frozen river. This itself is an ultimate
experience for adventure lovers
