Enjoy an afternoon getting acclimated to the 3500 m altitude. Spend the rest of the day basking in the colourful culture peppering the city: marvel at the ruins of Leh Palace and walk through the vibrant Leh Market.

As soon as the sun paints the sky with golden hues, get out of bed for a sunrise walk to Thikse Gompa. Snow-capped mountains paint the sky of this lovely viewpoint. Head to a nearby restaurant for a delicious breakfast before embarking on a two-hour walk to Shey Village.

Continue along the road until you reach Alchi Monastery, which was discovered in the 11th century! Drive for one more hour before arriving in Tia. Enjoy a tasty dinner and a night of camping.

Get ready to spend the next few nights in the wild, where you’ll camp overnight and explore the tumultuous mountain passes spanning Ladakh’s backyard.

Get ready for one of the toughest days on this guided backcountry trek! After a pleasant meander along the stream and through greenery, you’ll begin your ascent to Samun La Pass. Expect to encounter stunning views once you reach Domkhar road. The remainder of the trail takes you along a river and past a collection of chortens. After the unforgettable hike, settle into camp.

Today’s hike takes you to two passes: Thangla La and Yakra La. Expect to traverse steep sections and along a ridge until the path dips, revealing a rewarding view of Skuburchan Dok. You’ll spend the night at a campsite in Khangral.

This is your last day amid Ladakh’s vast, unspoiled backyard! The trail today descends an established path towards Skuberechan. En route, you’ll visit the vibrant Drokpa community at Baima and stop by a gompa. Spend the night sleeping in a tent!
