| Ladakh Range | Trip to Leh during mid Jan 2007 Posted: Tue December 5, 2006 12:49 PM UTC
I am considering a trip to Leh mid Jan 2007.
I am aware that this is not the best time to visit Leh as a tourist, but unfortunately I don’t have a choice! Are there any trekking opportunities that I could consider during this period? I will be there for 4 days. Even a short one day trek will do. I will be accompanied by my friend. We both are in a good shape in terms of physical fitness. I am based in Dubai at the moment and will be flying down to Delhi and from Delhi to Leh while my friend will join me from Bangalore. Trekking is top priority for us plus visiting the not-to-be-missed locations. It will be great if you could give me some inputs Cheers |

Since you will be flying down to Leh, you need two full days to acclamatise. Dont walk more than a few steps at a time, even though you may feel fit. The effects of HAPO may come after a few hours of even walking briskly up and down the steps. Lots of people land up in hospital, feeling very fit the moment they land.
After two days you can travel do some sight seeing if you are lucky and the roads are open. Trekking in Jan will be restricted to trekking in Leh Market :-) 4 days is toooooooo short for Leh, 4 days in Winter in Leh, is ............ illogical to be frank.
