Ladakh Mountaineering
Ladakh is mountaineers
delight with numerous mountain ranges all across the region. Mountain
climbing and trekking are physically demanding and medical facilities are
very limited in the remote areas of Ladakh. You must certify that you are in
good health as part of the expedition.

We would like to offer you an opportunity to share in an adventure that
captures the essence of the mountaineering experience. Too often
mountaineering is judged by success or failure, were the mountain is
"conquered" or a climber is "defeated". More perceptively the mountain is
eternally victorious and a climber who has tested himself physically,
emotionally and spiritually will always come away from the experience
fulfilled.
Foreign climbing expeditions are required to obtain permission from the
Indian Mountaineering Foundation for climbing a peak. A booking fee, based
on the height and popularity of the allotted peak is charged and a Liaison
Officer is assigned to every climbing team. The minimum period required for
processing applications is six months.
