After an early breakfast, a jeep will drop you at Korzok, which is 225 km from Leh and is the headquarter of the area. Korzok village is situated on the bank of Tsomoriri lake and the Korzok monastery stands mightily overlooking the village and the lake. You will reach there by the afternoon and stay overnight at Tsomoriri (4450m)
The day's trek starts early in the morning along the trail that first enters into the Korzok Phu Valley, then it starts ascending up over the slope. The valleys down there will be filled with some of the herbal flowers whose color and the fragrance will be filling the valley. Then as we go around toward the back of the peak, some rocky path makes it difficult for the horses. The base camp at the peak is quite windy and the camping area will be rocky too. Overnight in camp
The trek starts at around 02:00 am after having breakfast and then starts ascending towards Mentok Kangri. To climb up along that scary slope of an adjacent peak which is probably above 6250 meters is technical and quite tough. But be sure that you should summit the peaks before sunrise. When you are at the top of the much-anticipated peak, it offers a spectacular view of Mt Kharlung and on the other side, Mt Chamser and Mt Lungser will all be visible with those beautiful meadowy valleys and the blue lake all lying beneath. After enjoying the view, slowly and steadily get down towards base camp before it gets too late. Overnight in camp
The day is to rest and explore around the Lake and the village. Tsomoriri Lake is famous for its clear blue lake with the nomadic families settled around the lake. The local people consider the lake sacred. This lake is the breeding ground for numerous species of bird like Bar Headed Goose, great Crested Grebe, the Brahmini duck etc. Then visit the Korzok monastery before you leave this memorable trek. Overnight in camp
Early in the morning, the jeep will pick you up and drive on to Polokongka pass (13500 ft) and visit Tsokar (a small Lake). The place is famous for wild Asses and the nomadic settlements. From there, a short drive will bring you on the national highway route (Leh-Manali). Continue driving towards Leh via Taklang Pass (5350mts, the second highest motor able pass in Ladakh). You’ll reach Leh in the evening.
