    [name] => Ladakh's Snow Leopards (lodge-based) & Ranthambore's Tigers
    [code] => IND58
    [slug] => ladakhs-snow-leopards-lodge-based
    [description] => 
For generations of naturalists, the awesome Snow Leopard was an almost mythical creature, stalking the remote high mountains of Asia which were accessible only to expeditions. Whilst a spirit of adventure is still required to enter the domain of the Snow Leopard, modern communications have made it feasible to finally observe this specialised predator in the wild and in recent years Naturetrek is proud to have organised a number of successful tours in Ladakh achieving this objective. Previous holidays have included an element of camping but now we are glad to introduce a revised Snow Leopard tour which utilizes a comfortable new guesthouse in the heart of the animal's winter territory and thus ensures that participants will no longer have to spend any nights under canvas. Sightings of the charismatic Snow Leopard will be the main focus of the tour but in addition we will hope to see other inhabitants of the high mountains such as Blue Sheep and Asiatic Ibex together with a small but interesting selection of birdlife. Quite apart from the wildlife, Ladakh is a fascinating and unusual destination steeped in Buddhist history and the itinerary permits time to admire some of the ancient architecture in and around the capital Leh.


    

  • Excellent opportunities to observe Snow Leopards
    •

                    [description] => 
Our holidays to India take the wildlife enthusiast to a diverse and abundant land. The Indian subcontinent encompasses an enormous range of habitats, extending from the spectacular peaks of the Himalayas in the north, through forests, lakes and deserts to the moist Nilgiri hills in the south of the country where the shoreline is lapped by the warm waters of the Indian Ocean. These diverse landscapes support some of the most spectacular profusions of life on Earth.




India is an exciting destination in other respects. The abundant archaeological reminders of the country’s extraordinary history, and the fascination of a completely unique and complex culture are reasons enough to visit India. However, for anyone interested in natural history the attractions of a wildlife holiday to India are simply too great to resist.

Few species embody wilderness quite like the Snow Leopard. This legendary cat makes its home in some of our planet's last truly remote places and, until a few years ago, actually seeing one in the wild was thought to be all but impossible. Even after our annual 'Ladakh — A Snow Leopard Quest' started to encounter Snow Leopards regularly — in the Himalayan winter when the predators and their prey descend to accessible altitudes — we had no option but to use tents to shelter ourselves from the bitter cold. Now, by basing our search in a new area, the Ulley Valley, we are able to stay throughout our quest in a cosy, if simple, mountain guesthouse. This new accommodation offers eight twin rooms and two shared bathrooms, with hot washing water being provided in buckets each morning and evening since most pipes are frozen at this time of year. The main living area, built in traditional style, is heated by a warm central stove during the day, whilst hot water bottles are provided at bedtime to ensure a cosy night's sleep. This setting, and the friendly hospitality that goes with it, provide a comfortable alternative to camping in this remote area as, during each day, we go in search of one of the world's rarest and most stunning big cats — a species that is still only beginning to reveal its secrets to Western observers.


To reach Ladakh, in the far north-west of India, we will first fly to Delhi. From there we will take another flight to Leh, Ladakh's capital, which boasts one of the highest airports in the world, at 3,256 metres. Our first three days will be spent in Leh, as we acclimatise to the high altitude while enjoying a little local culture and wildlife, which could include Solitary Snipe and Ibisbill. Then we will drive west to Ulley, our base for six nights as we search for Snow Leopards in an area that is rarely visited by other tourists.


The village lies at the centre of three interlocking valleys that support a healthy number of about 10 Snow Leopards. These three valleys can be accessed by road, enabling us to use vehicles to explore the region, but we will also search on foot. The effort should be worth it, for with the help of our local guides' sharp eyes and expertise, there is an excellent chance of a memorable Snow Leopard sighting, whether at a kill or making its solitary way up a remote mountain pass, blending into the wilderness in which it is totally at home. We will also be on the lookout for Blue Sheep, the main prey species of the Snow Leopard, plus Asiatic Ibex, Ladakh Urial, Woolly Hare and cute Large-eared and Royle's Pikas. The Snow Leopard is not the only predator up here, and with a bit of luck we may also encounter the elegant Mountain Weasel, Stone Marten, a pack of Tibetan Wolves, or perhaps even Eurasian Lynx — another notoriously elusive feline. As for the birdlife, few species spend the winter here, but those that do — the Lammergeiers, Himalayan Griffons, Golden Eagles, Himalayan Snowcocks, redstarts, finches and accentors — make splendid mountain companions.


We will return to Delhi by air, leaving behind the mountainous Himalayan kingdom. In Delhi we will end our tour with a visit to Sultanpur National Park and Bird Sanctuary, a compact wetland, woodland and grassland reserve just 13 miles from our hotel. It covers less than two square kilometres, but what it lacks in size it more than makes up for through the abundance of its wildlife. This is an ideal birding spot, where large numbers of migratory species arrive each winter to complement the resident waterbirds. We will hope to find species such as Painted and Black-necked Storks, Indian Roller, Sarus Crane and Great Spotted Eagle, as well as mammals like Nilgai, or perhaps even Blackbuck or Jungle Cat. Your holiday need not end here, however, for should you wish to extend your stay in India with a search for Tigers and other wildlife in the country's lowlands, we are pleased to offer a post-tour 3-night extension in the Ranthambore Tiger Reserve, one of India's most spectacular and best-known Tiger Reserves. Alternatively, you might wish us to help you to extend your stay with a bespoke extension itinerary of your own choice. If so, please do call the Naturetrek office.

                                    [introduction] => Reni Pani occupies a peaceful spot beside a dried ‘nullah’ amongst the extensive dry deciduous forest of Satpura’s ‘buffer zone’. Exquisitely crafted from local materials, this lodge oozes charm and finesse; its 12 luxury cottages each have individual character and its library, dining room, bar and jungle-side pool offer everything else you might need. The wildlife experience here is also exceptional – the lodge’s location, amongst good forest, provides excellent encounters outside the park (especially on walks and night-drives) as well as in it.

Your hosts, Jehan and Katie, have honed the art of both the Kanha wildlife and camp experiences. They also offer several other activities including village walks, bicycle rides and visits to the local tribal markets.

Summary

Few species embody wilderness quite like the Snow Leopard. This legendary cat makes its home in some of our planet's last truly remote places and, until a few years ago, actually seeing one in the wild was thought to be all but impossible. Even after our annual 'Ladakh — A Snow Leopard Quest' started to encounter Snow Leopards regularly — in the Himalayan winter when the predators and their prey descend to accessible altitudes — we had no option but to use tents to shelter ourselves from the bitter cold. Now, by basing our search in a new area, the Ulley Valley, we are able to stay throughout our quest in a cosy, if simple, mountain guesthouse. This new accommodation offers eight twin rooms and two shared bathrooms, with hot washing water being provided in buckets each morning and evening since most pipes are frozen at this time of year. The main living area, built in traditional style, is heated by a warm central stove during the day, whilst hot water bottles are provided at bedtime to ensure a cosy night's sleep. This setting, and the friendly hospitality that goes with it, provide a comfortable alternative to camping in this remote area as, during each day, we go in search of one of the world's rarest and most stunning big cats — a species that is still only beginning to reveal its secrets to Western observers.

To reach Ladakh, in the far north-west of India, we will first fly to Delhi. From there we will take another flight to Leh, Ladakh's capital, which boasts one of the highest airports in the world, at 3,256 metres. Our first three days will be spent in Leh, as we acclimatise to the high altitude while enjoying a little local culture and wildlife, which could include Solitary Snipe and Ibisbill. Then we will drive west to Ulley, our base for six nights as we search for Snow Leopards in an area that is rarely visited by other tourists.

The village lies at the centre of three interlocking valleys that support a healthy number of about 10 Snow Leopards. These three valleys can be accessed by road, enabling us to use vehicles to explore the region, but we will also search on foot. The effort should be worth it, for with the help of our local guides' sharp eyes and expertise, there is an excellent chance of a memorable Snow Leopard sighting, whether at a kill or making its solitary way up a remote mountain pass, blending into the wilderness in which it is totally at home. We will also be on the lookout for Blue Sheep, the main prey species of the Snow Leopard, plus Asiatic Ibex, Ladakh Urial, Woolly Hare and cute Large-eared and Royle's Pikas. The Snow Leopard is not the only predator up here, and with a bit of luck we may also encounter the elegant Mountain Weasel, Stone Marten, a pack of Tibetan Wolves, or perhaps even Eurasian Lynx — another notoriously elusive feline. As for the birdlife, few species spend the winter here, but those that do — the Lammergeiers, Himalayan Griffons, Golden Eagles, Himalayan Snowcocks, redstarts, finches and accentors — make splendid mountain companions.

We will return to Delhi by air, leaving behind the mountainous Himalayan kingdom. In Delhi we will end our tour with a visit to Sultanpur National Park and Bird Sanctuary, a compact wetland, woodland and grassland reserve just 13 miles from our hotel. It covers less than two square kilometres, but what it lacks in size it more than makes up for through the abundance of its wildlife. This is an ideal birding spot, where large numbers of migratory species arrive each winter to complement the resident waterbirds. We will hope to find species such as Painted and Black-necked Storks, Indian Roller, Sarus Crane and Great Spotted Eagle, as well as mammals like Nilgai, or perhaps even Blackbuck or Jungle Cat. Your holiday need not end here, however, for should you wish to extend your stay in India with a search for Tigers and other wildlife in the country's lowlands, we are pleased to offer a post-tour 3-night extension in the Ranthambore Tiger Reserve, one of India's most spectacular and best-known Tiger Reserves. Alternatively, you might wish us to help you to extend your stay with a bespoke extension itinerary of your own choice. If so, please do call the Naturetrek office.
