About The Trek

One of the most important cross state trek this one is challenging and tough in grade and needs proper acclimatization good enough pre experience of trek and us definitely not for the novices. The trekking team size is huge for this trek thus it mostly looks like an expedition in technicality and preparations. From the valley of Sham to the Zanksar region it crosses several rivers and remote petit villages and finally the expeditions ends at Darcha in Himachal from where we drive to Manali. It also gives a chance to visit the most famous and remote monastery of Ladakh in Zanskar region, the Phuktal gompa which is otherwise not accessible by road and thus very less visite
