Kang Yatse 2 (6250m) Climb Jul 27-Aug 09, 2024
Kang Yatse sits like a throne for the Gods in the middle of one of the most popular trekking routes of Ladakh - The Markha Valley! Rising above the grazing grounds of Nimaling and covering the sky, it is the most prominent snow peak on the Markha trail Magnificent in appearance it rises a good 1700m above the camping site of Nimaling and beckons any trekker passing by to think of climbing it some day It has 2 summits The higher one Kang Yatse 1 at 6400m+ is a technically difficult climb and requires considerable mountaineering skills The lower peak termed Kang Yatse 2 at 6250m is a comparatively easier ascent, with many teams launching summit attempt from the base camp itself

Guardians of Pashmina Jul 26-Aug 04, 2024
Pashmina or as the west knows it - Cashmere is the finest wool from the land of Changthang and it literally means 'soft gold' in Kashmiri This fine thinner-than-hair wool is hand-woven into shawls by the Kashmiri artisans and sold world over But lesser known are the goat herders, the nomadic tribe endemic to the vast windswept high-altitude (4500m) cold desert plateau - Changthang It is located at the South-Eastern corner of Ladakh extending 1600kms eastward into Tibet and into modern day China With expansive highlands and giant sapphire lakes, it is home to the Changpas, the wandering nomads of this land
For generations, they have roamed its huge swathes of nutritious pastures with their flocks weathering severe temperatures, high winds, and inhospitable...

Markha Valley Trek
Jun 01-Jun 09, 2024
Jul 06-Jul 14, 2024
If you had to choose just one trek to do in Ladakh, it must be the Markha Valley Trek It’s not “the most popular trek” in Ladakh without reason Right from ease of access, remoteness of valley, wilderness experience and just the feel of trekking in Ladakh - it is all there on this trail The long hours of walking in wind swept arid landscape with green villages suddenly appearing as a welcoming Oasis, is exactly how trekking in Markha is Right in between the valley is the quaint Tacha Gompa perched high up on a cliff adding some mystic to this trek What really adds to the experience is the presence of little hamlets along the way affording a high degree of interaction with the hardy natives This is the first valley where the concept of homestays was pioneered in...

Parang La Trek Jul 15-Jul 30, 2024
An ethereal walk traversing countries and geographies, from Indian desert mounds-of-sand like mountains of Spiti Valley to the vast expansive high altitude plateau, Changthang - the home of the nomadic Changpa’s in Tibet, is the Parang la trek The trek reaches it crescendo, not just on one day – the day we cross the Parang la across the ragged mountains, but another – the day we soak in the serenity of the Tso Moriri The trek is an endless walk along through green meadows where the Kiangs (Tibetan wild horses) run wild, through little bushes of green in the arid brown of the Spiti that are the rhododendrons, along the cobalt blue stillness of the Tso Moriri and then on to the vast expansive ill-populated wetlands of the Changthang plateau This trek embodies...
