Nyerak

Nyerak is an extremely remote village in Zanskar valley and is uniquely situated almost midway through the magnificient Zanskar Gorge on river right. Nearest road head is almost 2 adys walk away via Lingshed.The actual village itself is hidden from the riverside and is almost an hour’s steep walk higher up.While the lower Nyerak is used by camping teams to stay for a night or two while passing by. This village can only be reached by rafting expedition parties in the summers or by long and spellbinding Chadar trek on the frozen river in the winters.The Zanskar Gorge starts a little below the village of Zangla deep in the Zanskar Valley and extends all the way to Chilling which lies about 65kms southeast of Leh, the capital of Ladakh.For rafters, the Zanskar gorge is a 2 day section, and the only place where they can camp for the night in between is Nyerak.
