Stok Kangri – the pride of Ladakh & one of
the least explored 6000mt summits in India. Be the one to join the elite club
of trekkers to have conquered the 20000ft / 6000mt peak. Being at 20K Ft it is
still considered as an easy peak as this peak does not require technical
skills. This route has been uniquely designed to approach the summit from one
side & descend from the other.
Route
taken by us in this trek is very unique & the entire route is filled with
green pastures, high oxygen availability with a entry from one side & exit
from the others. With this approach you will not have to repeat the route along
with MUCH BETTER VIEWS of the valley.

Hours daily. On the day of the summit it will be 12 to 14 hours of Trekking. You

Fitness
:
Stok
Kangri Summit requires the trekker to be in top physical condition before you
start the trek. The temperature variations between the day & night vary
anywhere between 15ºC. Hence it is very essential to have a fit body &
mind. You must be able to jog 4.5 km in 30 minutes or walk continuously in
15º incline for atleast 1 hour.
LUNGS – Push your lungs, Most critical
work in any high altitude trek is of the LUNGS. They are at over work as they
get very less oxygen & physical exertion will push them harder for 1.5 month
prior to the trek.
