11 Who carries the things/gears, and food during the trek?
 
In Ladakh normally you have to trek around the height of 4000mts and the passes are around 5000mts so its very difficult to carry heavy loads at this height, that’s why we provide horses/ponies they will carry everything, trekkers will have to carry only the pack lunch, water, camera, note book, and some delicate things which they don’t want keep with the horses.

Where do i need a special permission?
 
As Ladakh is surrounded by China in the east and from south west it’s covered by Pakistan, there fore doing sight seeing or trekking near to these boarder areas you need to apply for inner line permission, which you can obtain just with in a day through any local travel agent based in Leh.
