Ladakh Best Treks
Lotus Adventure offers a Multiple Ladakh Treks such as ..
1. Markha Valley : – The Markha valley in the Hemis National Park is the most popular trek in Ladakh. The Markha valley runs parallel with the Indus valley, wedged between the snow-clad Stok Kangri massif to the north and the Zanskar range to the south. During this trek, you will see breathtaking mountain scenery, wild animals and small isolated villages surrounded by green barley fields. You will have the opportunity to stay in homestays in these villages and discover the way of life of the local people.
The trek takes 6 to 8 days to complete depending on the starting point. The Markha valley can be reached from two different routes: one from Spituk and the other Chilling. The trek from Spituk is the longest option. It crosses 2 passes, Ganda La (4961m) and Kongmaru La (5260m), before reaching Hemis where the trek ends. Those who don’t have enough time and those looking to avoid the Ganda La pass could start the trek from Chilling, an easier and shorter option.
Best time: mid-May to beginning of October
Duration: 6 to 8 days
Difficulty: level 3
Max altitude: 5260m
2. Nubra valley trek from Phyang to Hunder :- The Trek From Phyang to Hundur connects the Indus valley to the Nubra valley. It follows an ancient trade route which was part of the old Silk Route network stretching from India to Central Asia. The highest point on this off-the-beaten-path trek is the Lasermo La pass (5438m) which is covered with ice and snow even in summer. From the pass, there is a wonderful panorama of the Karakoram range. This trek is done in 5 days.
After the trek, you will visit the main highlights of the Nubra Valley. You will have the chance to ride on a double-humped Bactrian camel at Hunder sand dunes and marvel at the sight of the 32-metre tall statue of the Maitreya Buddha at Diskit monastery. Then, you will head back to Leh via the Khardung La pass.
Best time: mid-July to end of September
Duration: 5 days
Difficulty: level 3
Max altitude: 5438m
3.Sham Valley Trek :- Often called the “baby trek” because of the easy nature of the trek, there is no doubt the Sham valley Trek offers some picturesque views to the trekkers. If you are looking for an easy trek suited for your kids, then this is the one for you. It never goes above 4000 metres and it can be done throughout the year.
The trek passes through many small villages where you can spend the nights in homestays and enjoy the authentic local cuisine prepared by the families. Some ancient and famous Monasteries at Likir, Rizong, Temisgam, Basgo and Alchi could be visited during and after the trek.
