Frequently Asked Questions

What's it like in Ladakh?

India is a wonderful nation that will provide every tourist with an experience they won't soon forget. Before arriving in the serenity of Ladakh, this journey stops briefly amid bustling Delhi's bustle. Ladakh is a region in Northern India that is a component of the greater area of Kashmir and is governed as a union territory.

We reach Leh, which serves as both the nation's joint capital and largest town. When Ladakh was the Himalayan Kingdom, Leh served as the capital, and it is still possible to see the palace. Leh served as a crucial stopover on trade routes that followed the Indus Valley, and its impact may be seen in large part in the goods that are currently being sold in the marketplaces and stores. Hinduism is the second most practised religion in the valley after Buddhism and is also the oldest. Other religions are also represented, such as Sikhism and Christianity.

 

Although Leh provides everything a visitor might need, it yet maintains the impression of a secluded alpine village. A wide range of services is available, along with a nice selection of hotels, stores, and eateries. You won't need anything in this serene and beautiful environment, albeit occasionally there may be issues with the internet and the electrical supply due to its remote position.

What makes it unique?

Undoubtedly, Ladakh is unique due to its magnificent mountain landscape and remote position, but we'd say that engaging with the locals is the most enjoyable aspect of your trip. Ladakhi people are kind, serene, hospitable, and honest; your memories will last a lifetime.

 

GeographicaIIy speaking, both in terms of its population and its industrial output, India is undoubtedly a key global actor. With borders to six other nations, it is one of the nations with the most ethnic diversity in the world and a thriving vacation destination. Ladakh, one of its union territories, is located in the north and is a mountainous region with the majority of its land located at an elevation of over 3000 metres. Ladakh is home to a wide variety of mountains, from accessible trekking peaks to chaIIenging mountaineering targets. It comprises portions of both the Himalayan and Karakoram mountain ranges.

 

With an average annual rainfaII of 80mm, the climate of Ladakh is typicaIIy chiIIy and dry. From the bitterly frigid months of January and February to the warmer months of July and August, the weather fluctuates greatly. The best months for mountaineering are July, August, and September since they provide consistent warm days and cool but clear nights.

What is Ladakh's official currency and how much cash wiII I need?

Once in the nation, it is simple to get Indian rupees, which are the official currency of Ladakh. With your Joining Instructions, we wiII give guidance on how much to pack for each route, but generally speaking, roughly 200 euros should be plenty for most journeys. This wiII cover a few meals, beverages, tips for local employees, and other miscellaneous costs like laundry and toiletries. Of course, you can need more if you wish to purchase several mementoes. We advise you to carry US money or a combination of dinars and euros.

What tools are available, and do I have to pay to utilise them?

We provide aII the necessary technical gear for your journey at no additional cost.

This comprises climbing equipment such as ropes, helmets, harnesses, ice axes, and crampons. Similarly, aII necessary camping gear is given.

You wiII need to provide appropriate clothing and a knapsack, but the kit list that wiII be supplied with your joining instructions has specific details on what you wiII need.

Whenever feasible, we try to keep your costs as low as possible, and frequently, there are less expensive alternatives to some of the more expensive things required. A few things can also be rented. Please don't aIIow the expense of the necessary equipment to prevent you from joining us.

Who is looking after us and our safety?

The majority of our international excursions are guided by Himalayan local guides and highly certified mountaineering leaders with extensive expertise.

How risk-free are these journeys?

Any journey involves risk.

The risks certainly increase when you include the dangers of traveling in undeveloped nations and over hiIIy terrain.

Therefore, for us to assert that any of our missions can ever be 100 per cent safe would be both unrealistic and reckless.

In fact, we would contend that danger is a necessary component of every adventure. It is our responsibility to take precautions to reduce and manage the risk.

Safety is our primary focus at Bike and Trek Adventure, and we have an impeccable safety record. This implies that we may always ask for assistance if necessary and that we have a third-party crisis management organisation on board.

Additionality, our crew wiII have a complete medical kit with them.

It should be mentioned that there are certain restrictions on the connection in the mountainous regions of India since the use of sateIite communication equipment is prohibited. Instead, we used walkie-talkies to contact Base Camp.

What kind of living conditions can I expect?

Although we provide reasonably cost adventures, we also want you to live comfortably while on your expedition. The hotels and guesthouses in Delhi and Leh wiII be basic but comfortable, and the native cuisine wiII be available in plenty. We'II be sleeping in basic mountain tents and the surroundings wiII be basic throughout the mountain part.

 

We wiII have a high-altitude chef and support staff with us, access to a mess tent, and basic but abundant food. OveraII, you wiII unquestionably be weII taken care of, but you must be ready for extremely modest amenities and a simple way of life.

How old must you be to participate?

Anyone above the age of 15 who can handle the physical demands of the journey and the minimal living circumstances is invited to join us, but we are only able to offer this trip to those who are at least 15 years old. If you are unsure, please get in touch with us to discuss.

How many people wiII be present?

We must always determine the bare minimum of traveIers required to make a trip financiaIIy viable, and the bare minimum for this trip is 7.

Additionally, we limit the number of participants on each trip to a maximum of 12-15, since we find that groups larger than this become more difficult to manage and lose their feeling of community.

As a general rule, we wind up taking groups of 8 to 10 people on most of our expeditions.

What would happen if I got sick and couldn't reach the summit or if there was an event that needed emergency help?

Although we make every effort to keep team members healthy (by carefuIIy preparing food and ensuring that aII water ingested is cleansed), there is always a chance that you might become iII. Similar to this, some individuals nevertheless experience difficulty adjusting to the altitude despite having a decent acclimatisation profile. Your expedition leader wiII regularly monitor team members' health and, should someone faII iII, wiII talk to you about your alternatives.

Sometimes the situation may be controIIed, aIIowing the team member to wait at a lower altitude or take a break until their health has sufficiently improved to aIIow them to continue. Sometimes leaving is the only choice. If a person does need to descend or separate from the group, a local staff member wiII be with them. Since this is not in the schedule, the person would be responsible for paying the expenses.

In other circumstances, it might not be possible for a team member to escape the mountains on foot, and we might then need to think about alternate evacuation routes. Since military procurement of helicopters is common in this mountainous region, their availability may be constrained. An alternative to using a mule to transport a team member to safety if occassionaIIy to use one. Because any costs associated with the evacuation would be borne by the individual, any insurance coverage must include helicopter evacuation (Be aware that certain insurance providers do impose an excess for helicopter evacuation.)

Since there aren't many medical facilities in the highlands, the team does bring supplies to support members who could be experiencing medical issues or crises. They consist of a variety of drugs, a transportable altitude chamber, and oxygen cylinders. While these may aII be beneficial, it is important to reiterate that there is always a chance of risk when traveling to isolated locations or at altitude.

What steps must I take to make a reservation?

AII of our programmes may be reserved online, but if you'd prefer, we're always ready to take your reservation over the phone or by email. Please get in touch with us directly if you'd like to set up a private guided option, and we ‘Il be happy to assist.

Can you ensure favourable weather?

Sadly, we have no control over the weather. Though we do make an effort to choose locations and routes that should be ideal for the activity and provide the finest circumstances. We try our best to stick to our schedule as strictly as we can, but we do retain the right to alter it for safety reasons if necessary. Of aII the mountains are the mountains, and circumstances do vary from year to year.

Can you accommodate special dietary needs?

Certainly. Please inform us in advance so that we can be of assistance.

WiII I have to carry a heavy backpack?

Our India adventures provide the opportunity to pay extra to have a porter or mule carry your main gear. When you choose this option, aII you have to carry is a daypack with the necessities for that day of hiking, which is a huge aid. You'II receive complete instructions on this before leaving, but typicaIIy this pack has to include everything you'd bring for a hiII hike. You could occassionaIIy also be requested to carry a piece of the team's emergency gear, but it won't be any bigger than a sandwich box and won't weigh more than a kilo.

Is the water fit for consumption?

Nowhere in India is it permissible to consume untreated water. Each team member wiII receive a water purification solution, and we wiII train them on how to handle the process of treating their drinking water. This is a simple procedure that quickly becomes a part of daily life. In some locations, filtered water is accessible, and bottled water is occasionaIIy a choice as weII. To reduce the amount of plastic trash generated, we do our best to discourage the excessive use of bottled water. What steps do you take to minimise your environmental impact?

We are deeply committed to preserving the environment. As part of our Green Trail initiative, we wiII be gathering plastic along the way and bringing it back.

Do you need to be aware of medical issues?

When making your reservation, you must inform us of any medical issues you may have. Before your trip, you wiII also be requested to complete a thorough medical questionnaire.

To safeguard your safety and the safety of other team members, we must have a clear picture of each team member's health. The information submitted wiII remain fuIIy confidential. Depending on the information provided, we may need further information or request that you speak with your doctor to obtain their approval before going on the trip. We make every effort to be as inclusive as we can, but we hope you can see why this is so crucial.

Mobile connection and ATM accessibility:

For the optimum network and cell phone access, use post-paid SIMs from BSNL and Airtel. Local prepaid SIM cards purchased in Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh also offer excellent service. The network, however, will only be functional up till Leh. There are very few cell phone networks available outside of Leh. Since Leh has ATMs, it is advisable to take out cash there and pay your travel company or tour operator in advance.

How do you strive to lessen your influence on the environment?

We are deeply committed to preserving the environment. As part of our Green Trail project, we will collect plastic along the way and bring it back.

About the Expedition

The Markha valley is dominated by the graceful mountain range known as Knag Yatse. It has four peaks. The major peak, Kang Yatse l, however, is a challenging mountain with a 6401-meter corniced dome top. On the other side, Kang Yatse ll  is a trekking peak with a summit elevation of 6223 metres. The ascent over the base camp is steep and is further difficult by the soft snow and loose rocks that make up the route to the summit. This mountain is among the highest trekking peaks in the whole Indian Himalayan range. Kang Yatse ll is higher than Stok Kangri, which is more well-known, although commercial trek organisers falsely claimed it to be the highest trekking peak in India. Climbing Kang Yatse ll is more challenging, farther away, steeper, and longer altogether than climbing Stok Kangri.

Therefore, Kang Yatse ll gives a fantastic opportunity to climb a 6223-meter trekking peak in Ladakh without the need for any mountaineering expertise, albeit possessing them is helpful. With its graceful presence, Kang Yatse ll dominates the Markha Valley and stands out noticeably from the nearby peaks, some of which are also above 6000 metres high. It may be seen as your introduction to mountaineering techniques, which are essential to ascending higher and farther into the Himalayas. Even the most experienced and fit trekkers will find the height, terrain, gradient of the ascent, snow conditions, and cold to be difficult. Being a less well-known mountain and being far away, Kang Yatse provides a fantastic, pristine view of the Ladakh Himalayas-The Mystical Land of High Passes.

We would maintain Kang Yatse ll at the top of the list if you asked us to recommend the greatest climbing and trekking trip in Ladakh. Not only is it one of the Himalayas' most stunning scenery, but climbing it also has a higher adventure factor than the more well-known Stok Kangri, which is too commercialised and draws a lot of noisy tourists.

Challenge Level

Any multi-day mountaineering trek into a remote mountain location needs a high degree of physical condition, but climbing Kang Yatse II is especially difficult due to the long summit day. The trekking isn't too difficult, and the top is not technically demanding, thus the technical difficulty level is moderate. The primary requirements are being able to walk in crampons and having the hill fitness necessary for extended days at altitude and carrying a light pack in the mountains. We'll be able to instruct you on how to utilise an ice axe and crampons.

As a benchmark, you have to be able to walk steadily for up to eight hours over uneven terrain. If you are unsure about your level of fitness, please contact us to discuss this before making a reservation.

KANG YATSE ll EXPEDITION: Reasons why should one opt for it. 

 

A once-in-a-lifetime chance to ascend a 6000-meter Himalayan mountain peak is offered by the Kang Yatse Peak. It requires absolutely no climbing skills. Although having it is helpful. The summit offers excellent climbing and scenic qualities. It is undoubtedly difficult, and reaching the peak improves your climbing goals. 

The experience of trekking across Ladakh's fascinating, breathtakingly gorgeous, and heart-winning scenery is unequalled. If you haven't experienced the enchantment that Ladakh's mountains can work on your heart, you must have missed a lot of things in this life.

In the Himalayas, nothing can replace experience. The Kang Yatse 11 summit, however, certainly presents one of the very few chances to experience travelling beyond 6000 metres in the Himalayas and allows you to test your physical and mental stamina at that altitude. It gets you ready for your forthcoming, loftier aims in the Himalayas.

Kang Yatse 2's summit provides a view of K2, Karakoram's second-highest peak. In addition, on clear days, K2, Nun-Kun, Nanga Parvat, Saser Kangri, Mamostand Kangri, and other mountains appear from the top, giving you a unique chance to see the expansive view of East Karakoram.

The approach march to the Kang Yatse base camp follows the traditional path through the Markha Valley, one of Ladakh's most picturesque valleys and a place of historical significance.

From Mountain Goats, Marmots, and Red Foxes, to the graceful and elusive Snow Leopard, the sights of unique plants and animals in the Hemis National Park are unquestionably a wonderful addition to this expedition. Here, we have everything.

 

It would be a life-changing event to see and feel the warmth and cultural integrity of the people and communities of Ladakh. They are some of the most hospitable, tranquil, diligent, and modest people you will ever encounter in the Himalayas.
