Package Overview

Sham valley is situated in lower Ladakh or western part of Leh with beautiful landscape, villages and monasteries. The trek along this valley is a soft trek as the highest elevation does not rise above 4100m unlike other part of Ladakh, and the walking hour is comparatively less and there would be ample time to explore Buddhist culture and monasteries during and after the trek. The trail crosses numerous villages some among the richest in Ladakh in terms of agriculture produce and resources where the people have kept their Ladakhi ways of custom and tradition intact. This valley is also known as Apricot valley due the presence of apricot orchards in abundance. Sham valley starts from Sneymo ( Nimmo) village and stretches up to Lamayuru. En route some famous villages and monasteries of Ladakh like Bazgo, Likir, Saspol, Alchi, Ridzong, Mangue, Temisgang, Wanla can be found and almost all of them are accessible by road, and some by trekking and hiking. Each monastery in Ladakh is distinct in itself and for those who wish to experience the uniqueness of Ladakhi monasteries- repository of age old Tibetan Buddhism, this trek is an ideal opportunity.
