The 5,200 meter high pass is the pinnacle of lonely trekking in the Markha Valley. Technically easy, the hiker has to deal with the altitude in particular. The highest peak of the Ladakh Range, the 6,400 meter high Kang Yatse with its glaciers, dominates the scenery. But the six-thousander Dzo Jongo is also clearly visible. The pass connects the Markha with the Indus Valley.
