EXPEDITION TOURS


CHADDAR " FROZEN RIVER TREK"

JAN & FEB ONLY

Zanskar is situated south west of Leh, the only motor able road is from Kargil , in the harsh Ladakh winter, the high passes out of the Zanskar valley become blocked by heavy snowfall and the only access to the outside world for the hardy Zanskaris lies along the frozen waters of the Zanskar river. We join them in the stark beauty of these icy landscapes on our adventurous trek along the "Chadar"  means frozen blanket. 
For this expedition we uses local staff from Zanskar, all the porters, and guide are from Zanskar itself, in every sense we want to give you a local feeling, and it helps the visitors to interact easily with local families, and monks. You will never forget the gathering and camp fire in evening, some places you have to sleep in caves, which will give you a life time experience.

There are two options for Chaddar trek..  

  • Option (A) To Padum,  the longer options  is 20 days from Leh - Chilling -Padum-Chilling and back to Leh 
  • Option (B) To Lingshed, the shorter option is Leh Chilling-Lingshed-Chilling and back to Leh  

Stok Kangril and Kangyatze Expedition

IMPORTANT:

Please note that climbing of peaks can be done without IMF permission. There are many groups and individuals who do the expedition without IMF permission but there is risk involved in this case if any accident happens, would be clients responsibility and repatriation could be difficult. Also if the team is caught doing climbing without permission, it would be a problem for every body. For such expeditions without IMF permission and also make them declare that this is going trekking expedition and not mountaineering expedition. This is to keep ourselves on safe side.

If u book the peak through IMF there is an extra expenditure of roughly about USD: 3000 to 3500 for whole group.
