PADAM LAMAYURU

The Lamayuru Trek is a relatively tough trek for experienced trekkers. Known as the classic trek,
it is a high altitude trek that takes you through barren stark landscapes of sheer grandeur and unparalleled
beauty. Interspersed with an exposure to the culture and life style of remote Ladakhi villages, this trek also takes
you to well known monasteries, in the heart of Zanskar. For those who yearn for the vast, remote reaches
of the Himalayas, this is a trek that a trekker should not miss in his/ her's life time.
