Something hidden go and find it, go and look behind the ranges, something lost behind the ranges, Lost and waiting for. Go Rudyar Kipling.
Enjoy a once in a lifetime experience walking on the frozen river Zanskar in the high lands of the Buddhist Kingdom of Ladakh, where the temperature will be sub zero. This route has been used for centuries as a trade link by Zanskaris. On the way you will also have chance to stay with local Zanskaris and visit some of the ancient monasteries behind the ice walls, wedged between the mighty Karakoram and the Great Himalayan range.
LADAKH,
popularly known as, the land of numerous passes of mystic Lamas, the 'Broken
Moon' and the 'last Shangri-La', is bounded by two of the world's highest
Mountain ranges, the Karakoram and the great Himalaya. The Leh region
varies between 9,000 ft. / 2743 mts. to 25,170 ft. / 7672 m. above the
sea level. Ladakh is characterised by medieval monasteries, fluttering
prayer flags, high deserts, peaks and passes.
Based in the town of Leh (11,500 ft./ 3505 m), the journey include many
fascinating excursions to nearby gomps (monasteries), villages and surrounding
countryside.
ZANSKAR:
Zanskar valley lies to the south-west of Leh, surrounded by the Himalaya
and Zanskar ranges. It is the most isolated of all the trans - Himalayan
Valleys.
Zanskar comprises of two main valleys the Stod (Doda Chu) and the Lanak
(Tsarap Chu)which coverage below at Padum. The valley has an area of about
5,000 sqr. kms. and an elevation of 13,154 feet 4010 mts. The area remains
inaccessible for nearly 7 months in the year. All passes close in, the
winter and the river freezes over. Zanskaris walk along it to reach the
Indus River in Nimoo (Chilling village), which is known as the Chadar
(frozen blanket) Trek.
The geographical isolation has resulted in the preservation of the rich
Buddhist heritage and identity. Many ancient monastic establishments are
still active along the river believed to have been the hermitage of the
successive Buddhist saints engaged in meditation in pursuit of knowledge
and enlightment.
