Your adventure begins with a beautiful drive from Leh, offering dramatic views of the barren landscape.

Please note that a minimum of 4 travellers are required to book this Sham Valley adventure.
Sham Valley is a relatively unexplored destination in Ladakh, hidden away from the throng of tourists that arrive in Leh each year. The valley is surrounded by high-rising mountains, painted in all shades of brown and grey. Small villages settled by local natives add a flair of culture and tradition with small monasteries and fluttering prayer flags. Nearby, the gushing Zanskar River flows with a roar, making its way down from the melting glaciers to the flatlands.
