The Chadar Trek is an unique and amazing experience that can only be done during the winter, from October to March, when the Zanskar River freezes. The Chadar Trek is not technically difficult, like many other Himalayan expeditions, but it is physically and mentally demanding. Trekkers are often advised to be prepared for any weather. The Chadar Trek in Ladakh is one such adventure, requiring trekkers to stay in freezing temperatures for several days (below 10 Celsius).
