Day 1
Arrival at Ladakh and Acclimatization
One of the most popular winter treks in India, Chadar Trek cuts and runs through craggy rocks and offbeat places where the temperature may even drop down to -10° C. This trek is considered one of the toughest and challenging trails in the country. However, on this expedition, you would cover all its scenic locations but in a short period.
The rest of the day will be free for you to relax and acclimatize.
(Since you are reaching an altitude of 4000 meters approximately from 200 meters in just one hour’s time, you may be excited and would want to explore everything on your very first day. However, your body needs to get acclimatized to such height and climate. We sincerely suggest that you rest on the first day for acclimatization.)

On the way, you will cross Shingra Koma that mesmerizes with picturesque views of huge mountain walls and serene environs. Once in Gyalpo, relax in your tent, enjoy your dinner and drift off to sleep.
