Ex Leh | Incredible Ladakh

Package Overview

Ladakh is a land like no other. Bounded by two of the world’s mightiest mountain ranges, the Great Himalaya and the Karakoram, it lies athwart two others, the Ladakh range and the Zanskar range. Ladakh lies at altitudes ranging from about 9,000 feet. The summer temperatures rarely exceed about 27 C in the shade, while in winter they may plummet to minus 20 C even in Leh. Surprisingly though, the thin air makes the heat of the sun even more intense at lower altitudes; it is said that only in Ladakh can a man sitting in the sun with his feet in the shade suffer from sunstroke and frostbite at the same time !
