Package overview

Ladakh, an annex of Tibetan plateau and Gobi desert, contains several worlds’ highest and roughest terrain. Great extend of harsh high elevated deserts and ‘moonscapes’ compose it a threatening landscape to analyze from the safe squeeze of an airplane – but there is extraordinary beauty, an magnetism that is roughly addictive. Accommodation is average, but comfortable.
Driving from Leh, you are mugged with the keep-changing palette of the peaks…incredible shade of red and purple that situates in sharp disparity of snow capped peaks. Scour and coarse obstinate ground wrap little to dress the harshness. The land looks blank, until a pale chime of bells indicates the entrance of pashm goats, whose swindle shrouds the famous pashmina, pursued by the roaming herdsmen with sheep and yak. The mostly Buddhist area has Gompas [monasteries] clutch to mountainpeaks in what appear the most unstable locations.
