Sarmang Adventure Tours

Get you closer to nature by Nature Walk, Meditation in the Woods, Hiking and Cycling

Every mark on the #LadakhUmlinglaChallenge route was made using natural roadside soil, not paint or chemical sprays.

Finish lines. U-turns. Course markings.

Nature erased them. The memories remain.

Because adventure should leave footprints—not scars.

The race ended. Our responsibility didn't.

Team Sarmang collected all event-generated waste, transported it from the Changthang region to Leh, and handed it over to the Municipal Committee for proper disposal.

🏔️ Leave No Trace.

We didn't just leave footprints in Koyul—we left hope.

Before departing, participants of the Ladakh Umlingla Challenge 2026, 21 Battalion, ITBP, volunteers and the Sarmang team planted saplings together.

A small gesture today. A greener Ladakh tomorrow.🇮🇳

The Ladakh Umlingla Challenge begins from Umling La.

It's more than a race. It's a test of preparation, resilience and determination in one of the world's harshest environments.

जहां सांस लेना भी चुनौती हो, वहां भारतीय सेना जीत का इतिहास लिखती है। 🏔️🇮🇳

दुनिया की सबसे ऊंची 70 किमी उमलिंग ला अल्ट्रा मैराथन में भारतीय सेना ने अद्भुत साहस और सहनशक्ति का परिचय दिया। मेजर दीपक कुमार ने प्रथम स्थान हासिल कर यह साबित किया कि कठिनतम ऊंचाइयों पर भी भारतीय सैनिकों का जज़्बा अडिग रहता है। यह उपलब्धि अनुशासन, धैर्य और मिशन के प्रति समर्पण का प्रेरक उदाहरण है।

दुनिया के सबसे ऊंचे अल्ट्रा मैराथन में भारतीय सेना का ऐतिहासिक परचम! 🇮🇳🏃‍♂️🏆
13 जुलाई 2026 को, 153 जनरल अस्पताल के मेजर दीपक कुमार और लद्दाख स्काउट्स रेजिमेंटल सेंटर (LSRC) के कैप्टन शिवागुरु वेल्लासामी एस ने दुनिया के सबसे ऊंचाई पर आयोजित होने वाले बेहद कठिन 70 किमी के 'उमलिंग ला चैलेंज' (Umling La Challenge) को सफलतापूर्वक पूरा किया।
इस प्रतिष्ठित रेस में मेजर दीपक कुमार ने प्रथम स्थान (1st Position) हासिल कर भारतीय सेना के अदम्य साहस और दृढ़ संकल्प का लोहा मनवाया। यह शानदार उपलब्धि सबसे चुनौतीपूर्ण परिस्थितियों में भी हमारे जांबाजों की शारीरिक और मानसिक मजबूती को दर्शाती है।
