Markha Valley Trek, Ladakh, India

I will be doing the Markha Valley trek in Ladakh (India) this June. I was searching google to see what others have to say about it. From the number of travel tour operaters offering the Markha Valley trek it seems half the world would be doing it. I hope it is not going to get crowded even there. But, maybe I am getting worried needlessly. Crowd in Delhi is one thing and it should mean something else altogether in Ladakh. At least that is what I hope for.

The idea of the trek, for us, is to escape the crowd which we find in plenty almost everywhere in India. I am a bit worried about high altitude sickness though. Still, the thought of sleeping in a tent again and living right in the middle of nature's splender for atleast fifteen days does manage to sooth my worry ridden mind. But the question is for how long after coming back from Markha and Ladakh? I hope for a long long time, till I find more peaceful employment. Boy! if you have stayed in a bad job you will probably understand what I mean.

Lots of Delhi bloggers are going to awesome Laddakh.
Good, get some ice to cool down the Delhi’s heat after rain.

Madhur, work for a European company rather than Indian or the US ones :0 That is how my husband manages to take leave. Otherwise work in academics like me :)

Paavani, I have a strong desire to back to ladakh again, let us see when that happens.
