Welcome to the Indian Himalayas, the most spectacular mountain range on earth. Our Zansar Trek itinerary begins with a three day acclimatization in the capital city of Ladakh, Leh. This ancient town was once a key part of regional trade, a history evident in its people and food.As we adjust to the altitude, we’ll visit 10th century monasteries, sample regional cuisine, and learn about the traditions and customs which help make Ladakh so special.
Our trek leads us through the secluded Zanskar Valley into northern Himachal Pradesh, Ladakh’s neighboring state. We’ll wind our way through scenic river beds, pastures for local shepherds, and Buddhist monasteries hidden in limestone caves. Along the way, we’ll have the rare opportunity to interact with community members and villagers that call this spectacular, and challenging, environment home.
