in Delhi. Early morning flight to Leh.
Day 2: Tour of Leh city, including the 17th century
palace and gompa.
Day 3-4: Touring the monasteries and palaces of the
Indus valley.
Day 5: We take a morning stroll to Sankar Gompa, then
to the nearby village of Sabu. Overnight in Sabu.
Day 6: In Sabu, we meet our horses and begin the trek.
Our first day takes us through lovely grazing areas to the
campsite at Polu Digar. From this vantage point, the Stok
mountains appear to float majestically above the Indus valley.
Day 7: Continue upward to the Digar La base camp. A
short day to aid acclimatization.
Day 8: We make an early start to cross the 17,230 ft.
Digar La. From the top, views stretch south to the Zanskar
range and north to the Saser range, Ladakh's highest peaks.
The descent is steady and we camp by a lovely meandering stream
at Chumik Yogma.
Day 9: Continue down through the village of Digar to
the tiny settlement of Aghyam.
Day 10: Trek to Tangyar, a prosperous village in a
remarkable location.
Day 11: Continue upward to Dhungle, our base camp for
the pass.
Day 12: Our second pass! Ascend the 17,061 foot Wuri
La for views all the way to the Karakoram in Pakistan! Descend
to camp at Zule Tokpo.
Day 13: Finish the trek with a short walk out to the
village of Sabu, and the TakTok gompa, an ancient shrine built
within an impressive cave. Travel by jeep over 18,000 foot
plus Chang La to the village of Tangtse, where we camp amongst
idyllic meadows.
Day 14: We explore the shoreline of the brilliant turquoise
and azure Pangong Lake, Ladakh's largest and one of the great
salt lakes of Central Asia. Proximity to the Chinese border
prevents us from penetrating much beyond the western shore
or camping at the lakeside, but the views are stupendous.
Our return to Leh takes us back over Chang La, the second
highest motorable road on earth. Back in the Indus valley,
we visit the little-known gompa of Chemrey before returning
to Leh that evening.
