Treks au Ladakh Zanskar

Nestled in the far north of India, in the heart of arid mountains, Ladakh-Zanskar is a region isolated by high passes and populated by peaks reaching over 7,000 metres in altitude. Its most remarkable feature is undoubtedly its extraordinary geology: a land of wild rock formations, a true marvel of earthly architecture.

Along the trails, one is continually surprised by ever-changing shapes and colours. Strange desert mountains, dotted with oases, where clouds play with the sun, highlighting the small patches of tender green from villages and their cultivated fields, clinging to vast mineral walls.

In this hostile environment, Buddhist culture has taken root and flourished for almost 1,000 years. The numerous monasteries, an important cultural treasure of the region, bear witness to the devotion of its inhabitants.

This guide describes, step by step, the walking routes of Ladakh-Zanskar and offers numerous variants, providing a wide choice of combinations, to undertake a trek suited to your abilities, and why not the ascent of a high summit.
