Markha Valley, Ladakh’s most iconic trekking destination, is crowned by the towering Kang Yatze massif, with Dzo Jongo West rising quietly beside it. This expedition combines the highest peaks of both these massifs into one incredible Himalayan climbing journey.
After a gradual approach through the Markha Valley and acclimatization at Nimaling (4750m), we first attempt Dzo Jongo West (6300m) - a non-technical yet physically demanding ascent that requires good endurance and familiarity with basic mountaineering equipment which is required as there is extensive glacier travel involved. With acclimatization in place, we then head to Kang Yatze I (6401m), the highest summit in the entire Valley. The route ascends a steep rocky ridge to a high camp, followed by a sustained 500m push on snow and ice on summit night - a serious alpine challenge. The reward is as wonderous as the challenge itself, with expansive 360° views from Nun-Kun massif in the west to big mountains of Karakoram ranges in the north, to the vast pleateu towards Tibet on the east.
Two 6000m summits of progressive difficulty , set in the stunning landscapes of Ladakh - this is a complete Himalayan climbing experience in one powerful expedition.
