Highlights
This
is a trek into some of the most isolated yet inhabited regions in the
Zanskar mountains, most notably the village of Lingshed. Trekking on ice,
the frozen Zanskar River, we average five to seven hours daily at an easy
pace but a reasonable degree of physical fitness is needed to sustain
walking for nine days during winter conditions. The trek commences from the
village of Chiling located not far from the confluence of Indus and the
Zanskar River. The trek follows the river gorge through a spectacular
landscape, a photographer’s paradise, offering occasional sighting of
wildlife. Although pleasant on clear, sunny days, the weather conditions can
change abruptly, with wind temperatures known to plummet minus 20 to 30
degrees Celsius. Chiling and Lingshed are the only sizeable villages on this
trek, all the rest are names of places and caves along the route.
