Phyang To Hunder Trek Overview
The number of days needed to do this trek is 5. The best time to do this trek is between the months of Mid June to End of September. Lasermo La is the highest point in this trek. The highlight of this trip is visits to monasteries, high altitude passes, interacting with villagers and experiencing local life.
Our first day is spent acclimatizing in Leh. We drive to Phyang the next morning passing through several streams and beautiful landscapes. There is an alpine valley on our way to the Phyang camp. We cross Lasermo La on the first day itself. From Phyang camp we go to Lasermo high. From lasermo high we go to Stok range from where we see the Karakoram ranges. The wild flowers and high valley are also part of our trek to Laser mo high.
From here we reach Drok Yokma which is at 4200 m. From there we arrive at Hunder drok where we spend an entire day strolling across the pastures and enjoying the sight of the glaciel melt. After spending a day here we drive to Hunder and visit its very famous village. We spend a good day trekking across forest valleys, steep hillsides, the mountain ranges and end the day camping in the grove of willows.
