Markha Valley Trekking (Ladakh)

Trekking

 

The Markha Valley Trekking is certainly one of the most varied and beautiful treks in the world. It circles from the edges of the Indus Valley, down into parts of Zanskar and passes through terrain that changes from incredible narrow valleys to wide-open vast expanses. The trails are decorated by elaborate Chortens and Mani walls that exemplify the region's total immersion in Buddhist culture.
