Reality Check
Although most of the walking is straightforward on good trails this is a high altitude trek and there are some demanding days over high passes.
Daytime temperatures can be very hot especially during the middle of the day as at these altitudes the sun is very strong.
This trek is suitable for the fit trekker, confident of their physical fitness preferably with some previous high altitude experience.
For those attempting the climb of Stok Kangri, previous ice axe and crampon experience is highly recommended. Please note on the ascent of Stok Kangri there are some scrambles on loose rock and exposed ridges and the climb is not recommended for those with fear of heights/exposed ridges.

Icons explained
The vast majority of Exodus adventures are adult group holidays. Groups are always small in size. We strongly believe that this adherence to small groups means a better experience for all; more time with your guide, less waiting around and a reduced impact on the communities and environments visited.
Each group is generally made up of like-minded travellers - with singles, couples and friends all joining in together.
All these trips are suitable for single travellers, but if you prefer to travel with clients booking individually, please
see our Solo Departures page.
An E grade tour combines all the elements of our D Grade, tough itineraries, but adds extra difficulties such as tricky river crossings, very high or difficult passes, glaciers or peaks that require basic climbing skills. Often specialist equipment, like ice axes and crampons will be needed and you must have experience of them.

Walking & Trekking: Trips are wholly trekking-focused or simply include a significant number of walking days during the itinerary.
