Ankita Bora
Amazing trekking company. Can trust them with their services. Very prompt and professional.
Shyamlee Khanna
I went for a valley of flowers trek with Justwravel from July 15-20, 2023. I had an absolutely amazing experience with them. The trek leads were very experienced and ensured we had a safe and enjoyable experience. The team ensured to respond to our queries of the weather and assured us of a safe trek experience. I would recommend Justwravel!
Disha Gupta
Had an amazing experience while doing the Sar Pass trek solely because our trek leader Vishal was an amazing human being who understood the team we'll adapted to our capabilities. Some of us were slow, but that was never a problem for him, he just continued being his cheerful self and encouraged us to move on. Vishal also displayed proper planning and leadership skill.
The trek was breathtaking in itself although slightly challenging so I wouldn't recommend it for beginners. I would grade it as moderate coz of the steepness of it at certain places.
Also here's a pic of Vishal so you can ask for him on your trek.
Rebecca Fernandes

Have any Doubts
Where is Chadar Trek located?
Chadar refers to the frozen river trail of the Zanskar River in Ladakh. The river becomes frozen with a sheet of thick ice acting as the only trail that can be used to travel in the region during the winter months.
How to reach the basecamp for the Chadar trek?
The starting point of the Chadar trek is the Frozen Zanskar river itself. One needs to drive from Leh to Shingra Koma to reach Tsomo Paldar which is where the trek initially starts from. The drive from Leh takes approximately 4 hours as the distance is approximately 65 Kilometers.
What are some important things to know before embarking on the Chadar Trek?
The Chadar trek consists entirely of walking on multitudes of icy surfaces and the frozen Zanskar river. It is extremely important to stay cautious and hence novice trekkers shouldn't opt for the Chadar trek.
It is a high-altitude trek and hence acclimatization is crucial.
A medical check-up is done before one embarks on the Chadar Trek and if a trekker is deemed unfit for the trekker, then they're not allowed to go on the trek no matter what.
What is the difficulty level of the Chadar Trek?
When it comes to the difficulty gradient, Chadar falls under the difficult trek. Even though it doesn't consists of steep ascents and descents, it is a trek consisting entirely of walking on a frozen river trail and since the ice can be thin at places, it is important to stay cautious.
Which month is best for Chadar Trek?
The window for the Chadar trek is extremely short as the best time to do the Chadar trek is the month of January when the river is completely frozen and trekkers can walk on the ice without fearing about it breaking.
How many days are required for the Chadar Trek?
The Chadar trek requires 9 days inculding the days spent for acclimatization in Leh as well as the day reserved for the mandatory medical checkup.
How to prepare for the Chadar Trek?
The trek isn't as exhaustive as other high-altitude Himalayan treks as it doesn't require trekkers to climb steep ascents and descents. However, building proper lung endurance by doing breathing exercises regularly will help the trekkers to acclimatize in a better way.
Can we do the Chadar trek alone?
Trekking solo always comes with a lot of risks. It is not advisable for novice trekkers to do any trek solo let alone the Chadar trek. Even experienced trekkers who have done high-altitude treks and have the necessary trekking gear shouldn't undertake a solo trek to Chadar trek as it can be extremely dangerous.

The Kashmir Great Lake Trek with Just Wravel was an absolute dream come true. Words can't fully capture the emotions I felt while exploring the mesmerizing landscapes and immersing myself in the local culture. This journey touched my heart in ways I never expected, and I'm forever grateful to Just Wravel for creating such a profoundly moving experience. It's not just a trek; it's a piece of my soul forever embedded in those majestic mountains and serene lakes.

I had the best time with him and definitely going to be in touch for my future trekking plans as well ??

Shyamlee Khanna
I went for a valley of flowers trek with Justwravel from July 15-20, 2023. I had an absolutely amazing experience with them. The trek leads were very experienced and ensured we had a safe and enjoyable experience. The team ensured to respond to our queries of the weather and assured us of a safe trek experience. I would recommend Justwravel!
Disha Gupta
Had an amazing experience while doing the Sar Pass trek solely because our trek leader Vishal was an amazing human being who understood the team we'll adapted to our capabilities. Some of us were slow, but that was never a problem for him, he just continued being his cheerful self and encouraged us to move on. Vishal also displayed proper planning and leadership skill.
The trek was breathtaking in itself although slightly challenging so I wouldn't recommend it for beginners. I would grade it as moderate coz of the steepness of it at certain places.
Also here's a pic of Vishal so you can ask for him on your trek.

I had been on Sar Pass Trek with Just Wravel Team. I had a v good experience. They gave clear and accurate information about the trek.
This was my first Himalayan trek.
Our on-ground team lead was Vishal Tiwari for the trek. He was v experienced and professional. He helped us with each and everything and was very humble. Got to learn a lot from him and the other trekkers in the group.
Thank you Just Wravel Team for making Sar Pass trek happen for me. Hope to book another trek soon.
