If
the great heights, rocky steeps and mountains rush your adrenaline as much as they
send chills down your spine, then Ladakh is the place for you. Leh-Ladakh has
beckoned the mountaineers, hikers and trekkers from all across the globe with
its challenging mountain trails and heights. If you are travelling to Ladakh for mountaineering, here are some of the spots which you must check out-
Nun-Kun
Massif
An
area much frequented by the foreign climbers, the Nun-Kun Massif in the lap of
the Great Himalayas is connected to the Kargil-Pudum road. You can access it
via the Suru Valley. While the range is made up of six peaks, Nun is the
highest of them all standing tall at 7,135m, followed closely by Kun which is
at 7,077m. But don’t forget to book it years in advance if you are eyeing this
peaky beauty.
Stok-khangri
Massif
Located
in the Zanskar Range, in the south of Leh, this serves as the base camp for
conquering the other peaks of Zanskar. You can trek to this Massif for two days
from the village of Stok. Stok-khangri (6,150m), Kantak (5,275 m), Gulap Khangri
(5,900 m) and Matho West (5,950m) are the best known peaks in this range.
Karakoram
Range
Probably
the most popular amongst all the Leh-Ladakh ranges, the Karokoram in Northern
Leh sits pretty in-between Ladakh and the Nubra Valley. Its summits Saser-I
(7,415 m), Saser II (7,513m) and Saser III (7,495 m) have been attracting
climbers worldwide and all can be accessed from the Nubra Valley. There are
other peaks too which come under the restricted zone and foreigners need
special permission granted by the Indian Government to climb them.
