In the far-flung northern
reaches of India, Ladakh is one of the most remote and
sparsely populated regions on earth. Bordered by Tibet,
it is often described as the roof of the world
and has almost moon like terrain, girdled by some of
the greatest mountain ranges of the world. Arid and
barren but interspersed with isolated settlement, green
oases of swaying poplars and cultivated farmlands, it
is awe inspiring in its starkness and strangely beautiful.
Ladakh is land of medieval gompas (monasteries) clinging
to Cliffside, fluttering prayer flags, gentle people,
high altitude deserts, rushing rivers, high peaks and
passes but few roads.
After a sensational flight
across the Great Himalaya and an exciting landing at
Ladakhs Capital City, Leh, you spend two days
acclimatizing and sightseeing in the Indus valley. Each
departure is planned to visit Spectacular Festivals
of Hemis and Phyang. The trek starts at the village
of Stok from where you climb through the gorges and
remote Ladakhi villages of the northern Zanskar Mountains.
You may well spot a legendary Snow Leopard, who romes
the upper valleys of Nimaling and Markha. Having crossed
the high passes, our trek ends at Hemis monastery, from
where our jeeps will take us back to Leh.
