Geography & terrain

Warwan Valley lies in the Kishtwar district of Jammu & Kashmir at about 2,500 m, 120 km from Kishtwar and 300 km from Srinagar — the trek valley of the region, its high passes, the villages and the river set on the Zanskar range's southern side.

History & culture

The valley's story runs with the 20th-century trek era — the trek valley of the 20th-century-era trail life and the 19th-century-era village life of the remote farming, with the valley's modern role as the offbeat trek of the Kashmir circuit and the home of the passes and the villages and the 2000s-era camps; the valley's history of the 2010s-era trail works and the river paths, gives Warwan its trek character.
