What You Get

The extreme isolation and length of the trek. You need a massive support crew (mules/horses) to carry 10 days of food, as there is zero resupply between Hemis and Zangla. Transport back from Padum to Leh is also a major cost.
Always ask your operator if these are included in the upfront package price.
Taxi from Padum back to Leh (2-day journey via Kargil or new Nimmu road, approx. 15,000 - 20,000 INR per vehicle)
