Day 1: Rumtse to Kyamar

The trail to Kyamar is also known as the salt road because salt was transported from Tso Kar to the Indus Valley and Leh via this valley. Witness the various landscapes and scenery that differ from Ladakh.

Day 2: Kyamar – Kyamar La – Mandalchan La – Tisaling

Leave Kyamar and gradually climb to Kyamar La, which offers spectacular views of the Changthang region. After a brief rest at the pass, descend to Tiri Doksa. It is a stopover for shepherds on their way. Continue trekking to Mandalchan La, where you will have spectacular views of the surrounding area. Enjoy being at the top for a while before descending to Tisaling. After a 13-kilometer hike, arrive at the campsite and retire for the night.

Day 3: Tisaling to Shibuk La – Ponganagu

Leave Tisaling and make your way to Shibuk La, gaining altitude gradually. Ascend to the summit for breathtaking views of Tso Kar Lake. Without further ado, proceed to Ponganagu, your campsite for the day. Ponganagu is located near Tso Kar Lake and is rich in flora and fauna, with Himalayan animals and birds such as ibex, marmots, and kiang easily spotted.

Day 4: Ponganagu to Nuruchan

Brahmini ducks and necked cranes can be seen walking west along Tso Kar Lake. Tso Kar is also known as "White Lake" because salt is deposited on its banks. From here, walk to Nuruchan, today's campsite.

Day 5: Nuruchan to Kyamayuri La and Gyamar Barma

After breakfast, get ready to cross two passes; Horlam Kongka La and Kyamayuri La. On the way come across some nomad families with their goats, sheep and yaks. After crossing these passes and tough long hike reach Gyamar Barma. Setup your camps here and retire for the night.

Day 6: Gyamar Barma to Kartse La and Gyamar

Today you will also cross the "Kartse La" pass. The trek is 5.7 kilometres long and will take approximately 3 hours to complete. After crossing Kartse La, descend to Gyamar Valley.

Day 7: Gyamar to Yalung Nyau La and Karzok

Leave Gyamar and cross the final Yarlung Nyau La, the highest pass you will encounter. The bluish freshwater Tso Moriri Lake is clearly visible from the top. This pristine Lake is 40 kilometres long and 4,522 metres high, surrounded by the Greater and Trans Himalayas.
