About this trip

One night at Padum is the shortest foothold in the remote Zanskar valley: the Karsha and Stongdey monasteries above the plain, and the start of the trail towards the cliff-set Phugtal Monastery. It is a brief, high-altitude stop reached by a long mountain road from Kargil — enough for the valley's great gompas, not its longer treks. Weather and road access govern the plan, which is priced on enquiry and confirmed close to travel.
