Far from the hustle and bustle of the capital Delhi, in the north, beyond the snow-capped peaks of the Himalayas, Pradeep, your Indian guide, will introduce you to Ladakh, an ancient Buddhist kingdom nicknamed “Little Tibet”, dotted with monasteries (gompas) and whitewashed stupas with their prayer flags.
This magnificent landscape is home to the elusive snow leopard, Ladakh's emblematic mammal.
It's during the harsh winter months (January/February/March) that this big cat descends to follow the herds of bharals and Siberian ibex, and its calls resound between the canyons in search of a mate for the mating season.
This trip is open to everyone, and approaches are made in private vehicles, so there's no need for long approach walks.
Welcome at the airport by Myriam and Pradeep, your Indian guide.
Transfer to the hotel 15 minutes drive from the airport
Departure for the Indus valley with Stok palace on the road leading to the monastery.
Superb Thiksey Gompa, one of the most emblematic and typical monasteries of Ladakh, founded in 1430 on a hillside overlooking the entire valley.
Opportunity to attend the monks’ prayers (early morning, 6am-8.30am). Return at your own pace, to perfect your acclimatisation.
A superb panorama on a tarmac road that follows the Indus, we pass through Kargil, Srinagar and the small town of Nimmu where the Zanskar meets the river.
We head north to Likir, where we take the time to photograph a famous Buddhist monastery: the gateway to the snow leopard’s domain. The search begins: breathtaking scenery winding through a narrow valley, following the Ulley Chhu stream, just before arriving at our lodge. 5 km of track before discovering the hamlet of 7 typical houses, including the Snow leopard Lodge and its rooms with mountain views.
Full board and activities included.
5 days entirely devoted to immersing yourself in this valley and the neighbouring valleys with the aim of finding, seeing, observing and photographing the snow leopard and the local wildlife of Ladakh.
of Ladakh.
The area is thought to contain around ten individuals. At 7am, the staff will take your cup of tea or coffee to your room.
3 private vehicles for our small group (8 people). We will live at the pace of the spotters and their observations. However, as its name suggests, the ‘ghost’ moves very discreetly and the mountains are its kingdom. There is no guarantee of seeing it, as its kingdom is vast and completely free.
At 1 p.m. we either have lunch at the lodge or the team moves to the valley where we are to set up tables, chairs and chairs.
to set up tables and chairs for a real hot meal (soup, starter, main course, dessert, coffee or tea).
We return to the lodge for the night, depending on our observations.
The lounge, with its large stove providing gentle heat, is a very convivial place to chat or watch a documentary.
After breakfast, we return to the capital. On the way down, the search for the panther continues.
Transfer and overnight at the hotel.
Return flight to Delhi, check-in at the hotel
After breakfast, transfer to the airport depending on your return flight time.
