Overview
Extreme
The Chadar Trek is one of the most extreme and iconic treks on Earth. When the Zanskar River freezes into a sheet of ice (chadar), it creates a surreal walkway through deep gorges and canyon walls. With temperatures dropping to -35°C and the constant risk of the ice breaking, this is not just a trek — it's a survival expedition.
