Fabulous trip. The river rafting and the rocky mountains and being there was an awesome experience.

Overview

Rafting in Ladakh probably is the most indulging activity in Zanskar travel. Rafting is done in the highly challenging Zanskar River. The rafting experience takes you through one of the most breathtaking gorges of the World. The water in the river is freezing cold and it is advisable that you take this ride only with a wet suit on. This exhilarating adventure through the entire river takes around four days and in between, you will spend the nights in camps set up on the rocky banks itself.

Apart from river rafting, trekking also attracts huge number of adventure lovers to these lands. Zanskar has few of the highest mountain passes in the country. The trek routes through them are surely enthralling but trekking here requires ability to take immense physical strain. The most famous trek route is named Chadar Trek.

The trek is carried out on the frozen Zanskar river during the winter season. You will have to take extra precautions and clothing as you will be literally walking over ice. Other breathtaking treks are Padum to Lamayuru which takes around 12-16 days and Padam to Leh which is 15-17 day long trek.

Itinerary

  • Day 1 - We leave Leh in the morning for Lamayuru. Along the way, we come across some of the oldest and most famous monasteries in Ladakh, founded around 11th century by Lotsawa Rinchen Sangpo. Lamayuru, Likir and Alchi are truly worth visiting for their age and historical background. From Lamayuru we will drive towards Hanupatta via Wanla and we will spend the rest of the day exploring and prepare for the trek next day.
