Ladakh Marteslang To Stok Trek

The trek from Marteslang to Stoke is considered challenging due to the long days and the maximum altitude of the Kongmaru Pass at 5260 meters. However, the trek is relatively easy following a good path. The average daily walk on this trek is 5 to 7 hours due to the long days. Therefore, a basic knowledge of adventure is required for this trek. No prior trekking experience is required, but you should be fit and comfortable walking for 5 to 7 hours each day carrying your day pack, although anyone with a good level of stamina and determination can do this trek.

The best time to trek Marteslang To Stok is from mid-June to August. The days are dry and warm with bright overhead sun, enough to cause dehydration, however, evenings and nights can be really cold, amidst the desert landscape of this Marteslang To Stok. The hills are bare with little or no vegetation, and only in the valley below are trees and fields scattered along the entire route. Camping can get really cold due to the high altitude. But we will not be disturbed by this. Because there we will have all the camping set.

It’s mandatory and highly recommended to get travel insurance before embarking on any adventurous trips. We advise all our clients to get travel insurance that covers up emergency helicopter evacuation that may be needed in case of the occurrence of AMS (Acute Mountain Sickness) or any other reasons in high altitudes where there are no other means of transportation available. It is advisable to review carefully the insurance and its coverages before making the final decision. More information: Travel Insurance

In this remote area, there are very few homestay accommodations; that is why we chose to offer camping treks.

At our campsites, we will provide you with a comfortable tent and sleeping mat, a toilet tent and a dining tent. There will also be a kitchen tent where the camp chef will prepare delicious meals and boil hot water for drinking. We try to make everything as comfortable as possible for you, make no mistake, this is hard camping with no facilities other than what we carry. If that doesn’t sound like your kind of adventure, we offer other treks that don’t involve camping! For example, Lamayuru to Hemis, Spituk to Chilling and Lamayuru to Chilling – all of which are homestay treks.

It is customary to tip your staff on treks to appreciate the wonderful people who help make your trek enjoyable and comfortable. Please note, 100% of your tips go to the staff.

We recommend the following:

Tip the guide 10% of your trip cost.
Tip the chef (cook) 8% of your trip cost.
It is customary to tip porters a total of USD120 per porter.

Tips for guides and crew members are divided by the number of hikers on the trip i.e. if you are three hikers, you pay USD40 per porter.
