Looking for Markha Valley trekking partners (7–11 Aug) or taxi sharing from Leh
Hi everyone!
I'm planning to do the Markha Valley Trek from 7–11 August as a solo trekker and was wondering if anyone has similar plans.
My itinerary:
7 Aug: Leh → Chilling → Skiu
8 Aug: Skiu → Markha
9 Aug: Markha → Thachungtse
10 Aug: Thachungtse → Nyimaling
11 Aug: Nyimaling → Kongmaru La → Shang Sumdo → Leh
From what I've read, seasonal camps should be available at Nyimaling, so I'm planning to stay there rather than carry full camping gear.
I'm mainly looking for people to:
Share a taxi from Leh → Chilling on 7 Aug.
Share a taxi from Shang Sumdo → Leh on 11 Aug.
Trek together if our itineraries overlap (totally optional!).
I have only done a few hikes before in Himachal, but this will be my first multi-day thing in Ladakh.
I'll be in Leh on 6 August, we can meet beforehand and plan if anyone is interested.
Feel free to comment or DM me. Thanks!
