Drive to Liker which is 45 km away from Leh on Srinagar Highway. At Liker, you can visit the monastery atop a hill upstream of the village. As you begin your trek you’ll come across Yangthang and Sumdo villages after crossing small passes such as Phobe La (3550 meters) and Charatse La (3650 meters). Overnight stay is in camp.
After the breakfast, trek towards Hemis Shukpachan which is relatively a short walk and involves crossing Tsermangchen La (3720 meters) to get to the village. The village has its own beauty with a rich cultural background, myths and mysteries. One can also take a 3 hours walk to Dakmar, a small lake situated adjacent to the village. Overnight stay is in camp.
Today will be a bit of a longer trek since you’ll be crossing Maptek La (3750 meters), which has a great view of its surrounding valleys and mountains. Soon after crossing the pass you’ll get sight of the Ang village. From Ang, the road leads down to the Temisgam village, which has ruins of a historical fort and a small monastery enshrining the highly sacred marble statue of the Avalokitesvara. Overnight stay is in a camp.
After having breakfast, drive back to Leh via Lamayuru, en route you can also visit Rizong and Alchi monasteries. You'll reach Leh by evening.
