Stok Kangri (6153m) is very ideal for first time mountaineering experience in the Himalayas. This majestic mountain offers beautiful panoramas of the Karakoram and sub Himalayan mountain range of Zanskar. The ascent of Stok Kangri is not technical; the main challenge is the very high altitude. Good physical condition and proper acclimatization are very important for a successful summit attempt. The shortest route to the peak is from the village of Stok; this expedition can be done in 4 days if you are already well acclimatized to the altitude. The Stok Kangri climb can also be combined with the Markha valley trek.
The program includes all transfers by ac cars. We stay in good quality tents, and even experience staying at a traditional Hotels at Leh. Kashmir Alps can offer this excellent program at very competitive prices.
