Overview<\/h1>\n
\n

Mentok Kangri expedition lies in the Rupshu valley in Ladakh on the Changthang plateau. The three summits of\u00a0Mentok Kangri<\/strong>\u00a0massif are Mentok Kangri 1 \u2013 6,250 m, Mentok Kangri 2 \u2013 6,150 m, and Mentok Kangri 3 \u2013 6,210 m, all connected by a ridge. \u2018Mentok<\/i>\u2018 is a Tibetan name derived from a wildflower native to this region.<\/p>\n

The 10-day trek begins from Karzok village which is located at the western shore of a famous turquoise lake named Tso Moriri. This plateau is inhabited by the famous Changpa nomads. The climb to Mentok Kangri 2 is a mix of icy slopes, boulder fields, traversing snow-slopes and the conditions at this time of the year. Views of Chamsher & Lungser Kangri across the expanse of Tso Moriri are magical, especially on the summit day!<\/p>\n
