Mountaineering - Stok Kangri (6153 Metres)

Stok Kangri (6153 Metres)

Description

Stok Kangri (elevation 6,137 m (20,135 feet) is the highest mountain in the Stok Range of the Himalayas in the Ladakh region of northwest India. The peak is located in Hemis National Park, 12 km southwest of the trailhead at 3,610 m (11,845 feet) in the village of  Stok  and 24 km southwest of the Ladakh capital of Leh. Despite its altitude, Stok Kangri is a popular peak and is often climbed as an initial non-technical foray into high-altitude mountaineering.

Detailed Day Wise Itinerary

  • Day 1. Drive Leh to Stok and trek to Mankorma (4480 m): 5/6 hrs

      Morning after breakfast you  will drive to Stok village. Which is the drive of only half an hour.  After that you will trek towards Manikarmo. Most of the route are along with a valley with some plants. And alost all the ways are of ascending slowly and slowly.  After lunch you will arrive at Manikargo. Overnight in the camp. 

  • Day 2. Mankorma - Base Camp (4980 m): 4/5 hrs

    We make an early start and reach base camp with still most of the day to rest. We have lunch and then take a short climb from base camp to better acclimatise. We climb a further 100 m and then come back down again to get an early night in preparation for tomorrow's summit attempt. Overnight at the camp. 

  • Day 3. Base Camp - Stok Kangri (6153 m) - Base Camp (4980 m): 8 hrs

    We start climbing in the early hours of the morning to avail of the best weather conditions and a possible sunrise at the summit. First we climb onto a ridge which leads to a large glacier. After crossing the glacier we ascend steeply to the summit. This last leg is the most difficult and takes a lot of physical and mental strength. The panoramic view from the summit is second to none. To the north-west the Karakoram Range, including K2 (8611 m), seems endless. One can also see the Zanskar Range and view Tibet in the distance, an outstanding vista of snow-capped peaks. Overnight at the camp

  • Day 4. Base Camp - Stok village - Leh (3500 m): 8 hrs

     From base camp we descend all the way to Stok village. This is a great walk passing by numerous ruins of old forts and castles. It takes about six hours to reach Stok village where we are met by waiting vehicles. We then drive two hours back to Leh enjoy a meal and some well earned drinks at the hotel. Overnight in the Hotel.
