Markha Valley Trek

Trip Overview

Bounded by two of the world's mightiest mountain ranges, the mightiest mountain ranges Ladakh is such an amazing place to visit. Ladakh is a high-altitude desert; thus, summer temperatures rarely exceed about 85 degrees, but winter temperatures can plummet to -20 degrees. Ladakh's remoteness and awesome high-altitude landscape are a few of the numerous attractions for adventure visitors. Tibetian-style traditions and lifestyles are prevailing in Ladakh. For close to 900 years, Ladakh was an independent kingdom, its dynasties were descendants of the king of old Tibet. The Markha Valley (the heart of Ladakh, known as Little Tibet) is one of the most beautiful in Ladakh. It includes an exciting crossing of the Zanskar River by trolley or Jola Bridge at the village of Chiling. This fascinating Markha Valley Trek provides us with tremendous views of mountains, gorges, and an arid landscape dotted with villages with colorful fields of mustard and barley. Beyond this, the trek offers religion, social structure, day-to-day activities, and areas of historical and ancient importance. The hospitality of people can make for a good experience in life.  In addition to this, living with a local family, participating in their daily activities, working with them on farmlands, enjoying time with children, etc. may add flavor to the tour. Since 1974, when Ladakh first became accessible to foreign visitors, this high and arid region has captured the imagination of adventure travelers. This itinerary between Ladakh and Zanskar offers a large diversity of landscapes, from the jagged Kongmaru La pass (5000 m) to the green oasis of the Markha valley with breathtaking views of the Korakoram snow-capped peaks. Many scattered high villages, each with irrigated fields of barley and potatoes, add color to this otherwise quite barren environment and provide the chance to meet the Ladakh peasants in the simplicity of their daily lives. Markha will have the opportunity to visit the old monastery, famous for its paintings.
