Brief Description

Grade:Pro
Location: Ladakh
Altitude:6030 m
Duration:11 Days
UT Kangri (6,030M) in Ladakh, is an offbeat climb not frequented by many. The prospect of climbing this isolated peak in the desert-like terrain of Ladakh becomes even more thrilling when you attempt it in the winters. Climbing to 6000M in high season is hard enough, but scaling a mountain at the peak of winter is a feat reserved for those with a heart of steel. A non-technical peak otherwise, UT Kangri in winters offers challenges which could throw off the most experienced climbers. Think up difficulties associated with a high-altitude expedition and multiply them by 3 – that’s how challenging this peak gets in the winters. There aren’t many mountains in the Himalayas which are attempted between October and June – UT Kangri happens to be one of those very few which makes this rare experience possible. Accessible in winters but demanding true grit, UT Kangri is a perfect playground to put to test the skills you may have acquired as a mountaineer over the years. An experience of a winter climb is far above any peak you may climb in the designated pre and post monsoon seasons. This mountain was made popular as recently as 2019 when members of Ladakh Mountain Guides Association successfully reached its crown. Being right next to the trail head reduces the risks of climbing this mountain under challenging conditions, as evacuation and access to help is readily available. The terrain of this mountain matches that of the dry, rocky region of Ladakh. Its summit offers an unobstructed view of ranges in its vicinity like Stok, Zanskar and Karakoram. Climbed from July through September, the mountain also makes itself accessible for a short window between January and March for those who want a winter climbing experience. The winter expedition to UT Kangri is reserved for those with extensive experience in high-altitude climbing.

Detailed Itinerary


Day 1: Make your way to Leh (3,500M)

Since the trek starts in the high-mountain city of Leh which is at an altitude of 3,500M, it is essential for the body to acclimatize. We utilize the first two days to get in tune with the new environment and while we are doing that, to get acquainted with each other, some of the basic mountain rules and what to expect on the UT Kangri Winter Expedition.

Day 2: Rest and Acclimatisation at Leh (3,500M)

Day two is reserved for rest and acclimatization to the altitude, too. This is important to allow your body to adapt to its new environment and reduce chances of adverse health conditions. You can go around and explore the city market, delve into the colors and culture of this high-mountain city and visit some places nearby. A little movement around the city would be good for acclimatization. Also, use this time to go through your checklist and do some last-minute shopping for what you might be missing for the expedition. Leh has the best market for trekking essentials.   

While the body acclimatizes, we take this time to get together with the group for a briefing session where we get to know each other better and delve into the happenings of the next few days - schedule, what to expect from a winter climb, basic do's and don'ts and other such matters of importance.

Day 3: Leh (3,500M) to Rumtse Phu (4,600M)

Distance: 100 kms

Distance: 100 kms

The drive from Leh to Rumtse Phu is the perfect introduction to the terrain of Ladakh. This short drive is an opportunity to study and admire the many features of this region since these are conditions we will experience during our climb.

Once there, we set up camp near the trail head and spend the rest of the day acclimatising. We go for a short acclimatisation height gain in the evening before calling it a day.

Day 4: Rumtse Phu (4,600M) to Intermediate Base Camp (4,900M)

Today we get our first taste of Ladakh winters as we move from our camp at Rhumtse Phu towards Intermediate Base Camp. It is only 300M of height gain, but is quite significant for two reasons. Firstly, because winters make it harder for the body to acclimatise. Secondly, because we are moving towards an altitude of 4,900M only on Day 4 of coming from sea level.

Pace yourself, there is no need to rush. Remember to keep hydrated.

Day 5: Intermediate Base Camp (4,900M) to Base Camp (5,100M)

A small elevation gain brings us to our home on the mountain – the Base Camp. The Base Camp of any mountain is where climbers spend most number of days while on the mountain. This is where you get your equipment, practice techniques, get comfortable with your gear, offer prayers to the mountain for a successful climb and wait around for a good weather window.

Base Camp is practically home!

Day 6: Rest and Acclimatisation at Base Camp (5,100M)

Today is reserved to give the body time to acclimatise to the altitude. Remember to be out and about, take in as much of the air at this altitude as you possibly can. Staying active is the best way to adapt to a new height and environment.

Day 7: Training at Base Camp (5,100M)

Once we are a little more comfortable at 5,100M after having spent two nights here, we use Day 7 to train. Learning techniques, understanding how to work together as a team and knowing safe practices is all going to come handy on our most important day on this mountain - the summit push.

We turn in early so as to give the body enough rest to start our summit push tonight.

Day 8: Base Camp (5,100M) to Summit (6,030M) to Base Camp (5,100M)

Summit day is the longest day on UT Kangri and the most challenging. With an elevation gain of 930M under harsh winter conditions, you need all the focus and strength you can garner. Extreme cold, strong winds, whiteouts, snow blizzards in addition to the challenges of the terrain make this climb an unforgettable experience.

Day 9: Base Camp (5,100M) to Leh (3,500M) through Rumtse Phu (4,600M)

The journey back to our starting point is a celebration through and through. We head down to the trail head and get our drive back to Leh. Expect to reach Leh by late evening.

Day 10 & 11: Reserve Day

In case of bad weather or other difficulties which might set us off schedule during the course of the entire expedition, Day 10 and 11 are set as reserve days. These will only get used if unexpected and unforeseeable conditions present themselves at the last minute preventing us from reaching our destination as planned.

Frequently Asked Questions



UT Kangri Winter Expedition is only for experienced trekkers who have done at least one BRS 6 trek or equivalent.

If you can Jog/Run for 5 kms in 25-30 mins, you are ready to take on this trek. Once a week, you can practice running 10 kms in an hour or so to improve your endurance further. In addition to this, you can also add resistance workouts to your schedule like squats, lunges, push ups etc. If you cannot do the above, there’s no need to worry. It is important to remember that it’s all about practice. Get on a training schedule and we can assure you that you will meet these standards in a matter of a few months. Here is a sample workout schedule that you can tweak according to your fitness levels and needs.

The climb demands a few basic mountaineering skills; using an ice-axe, pitching a tent in snow, roping up, working together as a team, ascending and descending on steep gradients and seemingly simple tasks like ‘walking’ on snow in extremely heavy snow boots.

The minimum age limit is 16 years. However, minors between 16 to 17 years of age should be accompanied by their parents/ guardians. If you are above the age of 60, kindly carry a medical certificate from your doctor that deems you fit for adventure activities like trekking.


UT Ladakh Kangri, situated in the upper valley of Rumtse village, is a striking snow-capped peak that was first successfully summited by local mountaineers from the Ladakh Mountain Guides Association in 2019.

UT Kangri (6,030M) in Ladakh offers an offbeat and exhilarating climbing experience, especially during winters. As one of the few peaks accessible between January and March, it presents a rare opportunity for a high-altitude winter expedition. With its desert-like, rugged terrain, the summit rewards climbers with panoramic views of the Stok, Zanskar, and Karakoram ranges. Situated close to the trailhead, it also ensures that help is readily available if needed, making this daring adventure both accessible and thrilling.

Though the trail to UT Kangri’s summit is stunning, it is also demanding and requires prior high-altitude trekking experience. The summit day, lasting around 10-11 hours, is the toughest part of the journey. At 6,030M, the thin air and the barren, desert-like terrain of Ladakh put extra pressure on the body. Winter conditions further intensify these challenges, making each step both physically and mentally exhausting. While UT Kangri is non-technical, climbing it in winter tests your endurance, resilience, and ability to adapt to tough conditions.

Climbed from July through September, the mountain also makes itself accessible for a short window between January and March for those who want a winter climbing experience.

In Leh, we stay in a hotel. On all the trekking days we have twin-sharing tents. In case you want an individual tent, you can add that to your booking request for an additional cost.

Though mornings are mostly sunny, temperature drops during nights. On summit night, it will be between -10 to -18 degree celcius.

Although non-technical, the climb in winter triples the usual challenges of a 6000M ascent, demanding strength and resilience from even the most seasoned mountaineers. With its desert-like, rugged terrain, the summit rewards climbers with panoramic views of the Stok, Zanskar, and Karakoram ranges.

A Basic Mountaineering Course certification from one of the five recognized mountaineering institutes in India is a minimum requirement to join our team. Our field experts are also trained in basic medicine and first-aid response. We also conduct on-ground training for our staff once a year as a refresher for old skills and to learn some new ones. During this training that we call APW (Adventure Professional Workshop), our leaders learn close to 25 topics and techniques of rescue which are not covered in the BMC and AMC courses. For practical training, we simulate on-ground situations to prepare them for quick thinking and quick response during emergencies.

We follow a rigorous regime of hiring and training our experts on the field. Each trek leader is a certified mountaineer with years of experience in the field. The interview process to bring a trek leader on-board is close to 6 months long where we assess various skills as well as personality traits of an individual. They also go through an on-field assignment as part of the hiring process. Trek leaders also progress in time from leading easier treks before advancing to the more difficult ones where the stakes are higher. For detailed information on our selection process, please visit Forerunners - The Making Of A Trek Leader | Episode 2

It absolutely is. We recognize, value and embody the ideology that the world of outdoor adventure can benefit from diversity. We make it our mission to create outdoor spaces as equally accessible and safe for all genders as possible. We also encourage women leaders in the outdoors and all of our staff (irrespective of gender) is gender sensitised. As for accommodation, in case there are no other women on the trek, a solo female trekker is provided with a separate single-occupancy tent.

Our batch sizes for UT Kangri are capped at 12 with the trek leader to trekker ratio of 1:4.

In addition to their qualification, our trek leaders are trained to tackle any and all kinds of sudden conditions that may present themselves on ground. During our recce stage, we study the trail in great detail and map out rescue routes before opening it up for our trekkers. We also have local support staff stationed in each area to arrange for emergency services at the place of need as quickly as possible.

We mobilise road rescue efforts where our trek leaders bring the person to be rescued down to the trailhead of the trek from where a car can take them to the nearest healthcare facility. The cost of rescue is not covered in the trek fee that we charge. It must be borne by the participant. However, if you opt for the insurance the cost of rescue operations can be claimed from the Insurance company on production of valid proof e.g. doctor’s prescription & hospital bills etc. Please note that Bikat Adventures is only a facilitator & not a party in the Insurance policy. You need to raise the claim request directly with the Insurance company. Bikat Adventures is not responsible for any rejection of the claim. You can call the insurance provider directly for any clarifications related to the Insurance policy. Although not mandatory, we recommend buying the insurance. You don’t necessarily have to get the insurance we provide, you can pick an Insurance company of your choice and get a policy directly from them. If you need more information on the terms and conditions of the insurance policy, get in touch with our customer support team.

All the gear used on our treks and expeditions is tried and tested, maintained for good quality and is overall top notch in quality and condition. We are continually looking to obtain the best of everything there is in the market so as to ensure optimum safety.

That will depend on the nature of your medical condition. Do give us a call, and one of our people will help you understand what is best for you. If not this, we are sure there would be plenty of other options you can choose from our vast portfolio to pick as your next adventure.


We have rolling camps on all our trails. To know why we are strictly against the concept of Fixed Camping, read Reasons to Ban Fixed Camping in Himalayas.

This is a complex question and has a compound answer. The simple response is that because it is bad for the environment which we dearly love but if you are interested in a more detailed response to this question, please read Reasons to Ban Fixed Camping in Himalayas.

There are a number of measures that we take to prevent overcrowding on some of the most popular trails. Some of them are capping our group size at 15, capping the number of trekkers on a trail to 250 per season, constantly looking for newer trails and routes to spread the crowd around and providing incentives to our trekkers to try unexplored territories with us. We put in place the system of dynamic pricing, which is the first of its kind in the trekking industry, which incentivises trekkers to choose less crowded trails by offering higher discounts. We have noticed, since we started this system, that this has helped in a big way to spread out the crowds between trekking routes. We are also going international so as to relieve some of the stress on the Himalayan landscape as well as explore newer ranges and design newer experiences for our community. If you want a more detailed description of all our measures in this regard, please read Simple solutions to overcrowding on Himalayan Treks.

Some basic things to remember are: do not use water, do not dispose of anything non-biodegradable inside the pits, carry your own roll of toilet paper and remember to cover up after yourself to leave a clean toilet for your fellow trekkers. Everything else is much the same like using an Indian style home toilet!

Most wet wipes are not biodegradable which means it could take 100 years or more for them to decompose – not the best thing if you are trying to ‘Leave No Trace’, right?

This is quite a tricky situation but not a hopeless one. Since most of our sanitary waste is not biodegradable, we recommend that you pack your pads/tampons neatly, store it in a zip-lock bag and bring it back down with you where there are better options to dispose of them. In case you do not have zip-lock bags, ask our trek leaders for them and they should be able to provide them to you.

Each trekker is responsible for the use and hygiene of their own eating utensils. And as a measure to maintain proper hygiene, we do not provide plates and spoons. Also, dipping your hands in cold water to wash your own utensils adds something to the overall joy of high-altitude living, wouldn’t you think?


On making the payment, you will receive a booking confirmation along with the packing list and a copy of the undertaking form via email. You will subsequently receive emails detailing documents required, how to prepare physically and mentally for the trek, information on pick-up location on the first day etc. Please add info@bikatadventures.com in your trusted emails list to make sure our emails don't go to your spam folder. A Whatsapp group will be formed a few weeks before departure. Members from our team are on those groups as well. Feel free to seek any clarifications you require in regards to the trek, on the group itself. Updates related to transportation/pickup point/pickup timing, accommodation etc. will be shared on the Whatsapp group as well.

Yes, we create a Whatsapp group a few weeks before the departure date so that the flow of information remains smooth and transparent.

Yes, it is one of the mandatory documents you will need to submit before the trek starts. The soft copy is to be sent to us & the original should be on your person while on the trek.

Yes, we will provide you an undertaking form through email which will need to be filled up by you and submitted to us post booking.

Why Bikat?

Small Group Size


Our batch sizes are capped at 15 for smaller treks with the trek leader and trekker ratio of 1:8. This ratio, in our years of experience, has proven to deliver the best trekking experience for individuals as well as groups. Capping the size of the group ensures individual attention to each trekker so that no signs of distress or need during the trek go unnoticed. It also helps to form a more cohesive cohort with better group energy which helps define the rhythm and pace of days on the trek.

As you go higher up on the BRS scale, since the stakes are higher, expeditions have an even smaller group size with the ratio of expedition leader to climber set at 1:2.


Qualified Expedition Leaders


We follow a rigorous regime of hiring and training our experts in the field. Each trek leader is a certified mountaineer with years of experience in the field. In addition to their qualification, they also go through practical and situational training to tackle any and all kinds of sudden conditions that may present themselves on the ground. Being unpredictable is the core nature of the mountains but being ready for any circumstance as best as possible is a controllable asset that we try to nurture.

Our field experts are also trained in basic medicine and first-aid response.
