Guardians of Pashmina Jul 24-Aug 02, 2026
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...

In Quest Of The Snow Leopard
Mar 07-Mar 18, 2026
Mar 03-Mar 14, 2027
In the dead of the night, in peak winter, when the mountains are covered by a snow quilt and are in deep slumber, ‘the grey ghost’ descends from the high inhospitable Himalayan heights to the lower reaches in the valley…in search of a mate and its prey - the wild mountain goats!
Snow Leopard (Ladakhi: Shan) - An enigmatic mammal capable of surviving in some of the most brutal terrains and in extreme environmental conditions, is the undisputed King of the snowcapped regions Easily the most magnificent of all the wild cats, this nocturnal cat moves like the phantom in the high mountains of Central Asia in about 12 countries including India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, China, Tibet, Bhutan and Nepal In India, it is most prevalent in parts of Ladakh and Spiti Due to...

Markha Winter Walk Custom Departures Only
During the middle of winter, in the high altitude arid mountains, when the peaks and valleys are covered in snow, and the trees stand all bare, it feels like the Himalaya is in deep meditative state! A state which exudes an aura of peace and serenity so profound that it pervades into the being of every traveller who cares to visit
We discovered this trip accidentally in the winter of 2017, when our scheduled trip to Chadar got cancelled due to excessive snowfall and we had to think of alternatives and zeroed on Markha Valley Markha Valley is generally a summer favourite and has few takers in winter with its illustrious cousin the Chadar trek drawing all the attention of trekkers To our good fortune, what we chanced upon to our delight when we walked the Markha...

Markha Valley Trek
May 30-Jun 07, 2026 – 9 days
Jul 04-Jul 12, 2026 – 9 days
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 11-Jul 26, 2026
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...

Stok Kangri Climb No Departures
Stok Kangri at 6153m is a superb introduction to high altitude mountaineering in the Himalayas It is considered a trekking peak that can be attempted without being bogged down by the technicalities and skill of mountaineering On the other hand, Stok Kangri can prove to be a serious challenge depending on the snow and weather conditions on summit night
In recent times this mountain has garnered so much popularity among amateurs and novice climbers, that it could easily be considered as the “common man’s Everest”! The most important aspect to consider while attempting Stok Kangri would be the acclimatization to high altitude At 6153m, the peak is very high while the Base Camp itself is at a height of 4900m, as high as some passes one would encounter on a...

Complete Chadar Trek Custom Departures Available
The Chadar Trek is a phenomenal winter expedition Period
If Ladakh is a remote Himalayan region of Indian Himalaya, then Zanskar would be called the remote region of Ladakh! The region gets its name from the Zanskar river that cascades through the stunning Zanskar Gorge famously referred to as ‘The Grand Canyon of Asia’ Zanskar river is a tributary of Indus and is popular for whitewater rafting and kayaking in the Summers In the winters, the temperature in this cold, arid desert plummets drastically falling as low as -30 degree celsius forcing the Zanskar to freeze on the surface Thus the top layer forms a veil of ice referred to as ‘Chadar’ by...
