About Markha Valley Trek
A deservedly popular trek, that follows the beautiful Markha valley. It is almost always done in the direction described, as in the reverse direction the approach to the Gongmaru La is very steep and unpleasant. This means you get an impression of there being fewer trekkers on this route than there in fact are. It is a reasonably straightforward trek, with many villages on the way, and even the odd tea "house" tent, it is possible avoid camping out except for the night before crossing the Gongmaru La, which necessitates a tent, and good sleeping bag as it gets very cold here even in summer. Markha Valley is between Zanskar and Ladakh ranges of theHimalayas. This valley runs parallel to the Himalayan range. Markha Valley has beautiful, wild and barren landscapes.
