iTINERARY
Day 1: Arrival in Leh
- You would be welcomed by none other than the Leh
weather, a mix of hot and cold breeze that will certainly
catch your attention. Well, it is just not about this. As
soon as you would start gazing all around, you will notice
the peaks of the mountains covered with ice, SnowCapped mountains all around. The view would certainly
lock itself in your muscle memory. With all the formalities
done and luggage picked up, hop-in to a taxi and head
towards the pre-booked hotel. Get comfortable and relax
overnight for the next day.
Day 2: Acclimatization Day
- Wake up early after spending your first night in Leh and
kick-start the day by acclimatizing yourself at high
altitude. - You will then walk towards a sacred Buddhist Stupa,
Shanti Stupa, to witness an altogether beautiful sunrise
along with capturing a panoramic view of the town of Leh.
Remember to keep yourself hydrated as this would get
your body ready for the upcoming adventure.
Day 3: Medical check-up (SNM Hospital) and Leh Market
- This particular trek would need you to get a medical
check-up done at Sonam Narbu Hospital as the
government has made it compulsory for all the trekkers to
obtain a clearance certificate. We suggest you to improve
your stamina and energy, for removing the thin line
between your fitness level and the Great Chadar Trek.
Once it's done, you will have sufficient time to roam
around in the market and try the local cuisine. Thukpa
along with Kulcha and Qahwa(can you feel the heavenly
aroma?) would go hand in hand.
