The Chadar Trek or the
frozen river trek is different in the slow gain that it takes in altitude,
spread evenly throughout, and takes you to a maximum height of 11,800 ft, deep
in the Himalayas! The weather throughout the Chadar trek remains mind-numbingly
cold. Though you may have the blessed opportunity of experiencing a temperature
slightly above 0 degrees as you land in Leh, as soon you cross over to Ladakh
and start the frozen river trek, the temperature dips down to sub-zero degrees.
The temperature throughout the trek varies from -5 to -15 degrees during the
day and reaches as low as -30 degrees during the night.
