Ladakh Phitse La and Baralacha Treks
Maximum Altitude: 5250 meters (Phitse La)
Duration of Trek: 19 Days camping
Grade: Hard
This
pioneering trek takes you through one of the most beautiful regions of
northern India – with two high passes crossing into Lahaul and
Himanchal Pradesh from Ladakh.
This is a strenuous trek
as the Phitse la pass (5250m) is normally covered by snow most of the
seasons and occurs occasional storms too. Still normal trekking time in
this region is from early June to early October.
