Lamayuru
to Hemis Monastry Trek (12 Days)
A very interesting route beginning at the famous Lamayuru monastery, you
walk up the less travelled Ripchar Valley with its small villages,
nomadic settlements and pastures where you see a wide variety of
flowers and many species of birds from the end of July to end of
August. We cross some high passes with excellent views of the
Karakorams 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. A
different set 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
lifestyle. Several river crossings are involved, but these are not
dangerous. Crossing several more passes, through gorges and wide open
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 also for the
beautiful view it has over the valley.

Zangla to Lamayuru Trek (13 days
This trek goes into the hidden kingdom of Zanskar. The trek offers close encounters with Zanskari life, passing interesting villages with their little gompas on practically every day of the trek. The route also takes in eight high passes and, depending on the time of the year, up to a dozen river crossings. Ladakh and Zanskar form the western edge of the Tibetan plateau and are popularly known as "Little Tibet" due to the similarity of the culture and the high altitude desert landscape. Politically, this region forms a part of India, though the religious head is still the Dalai Lama. The flora and fauna is also similar to Tibet and is quite distinct from the rest of the Himalayas. The region, being beyond the reach of the monsoon, is dry with sparse vegetation. Willow groves and poplars are found near villages. Bushes of Eidel berry, wild strawberry and sage brush are also common. The fauna includes marmots, blue sheep and ibex and an occasional snow leopard, besides many birds of prey.
Cost: 630 Euros/person for a private trek of 2 Pax.
Cost: 560 Euros/ person for a group of 3-6 Pax
Size of group: Min 2 & Max 6
Highest point: Singe La (5000 m)
Duration: 4- day drive, 9 days trek (13 days)
Grade: Strenuous
