In only 8 days, you will discover the mineral desert, the greenery oasis , the monasteries and old castel put up on inaccessible peak, rivers with turquoise water. You will meet at the Ganda La camps and Nimaling the shepherds and their goats or yaks herds. Each village will be a special place for exchanges with Ladakhi people. Their jullay (hello) will accomodate you cordially and you will have maybe the occasion to test the Ladakhi traditional dress. Unforgettable moments for you. To explore in good Company, of course...
