This trekking on a frozen river will leave you an extraordinary memory. It is the traditional winter way which connects Zanskar to Ladakh. This singular path is practicable only during the winter when the strong cold freeze the river in its deep gorges. It is a whole adventure which could be undertaken only by experienced trekkers having a very good mountain practice (use of the ice axe and cramps) and prepared for the extreme conditions (-35 degrees the night). Aside the sport aspect, this trekking will lead you in the old Zanskar kingdom. Protected all around by insuperable mountains in winter, it is an intact way of life which we propose to you to live in good Company with the zanskari. ******************************* **************** *
