Leh–Kargil–Srinagar Educational Expedition

The Leh–Kargil–Srinagar Educational Expedition, organised by the Salwan Education Trust from 23–29 July 2026, provided six students, accompanied by Sports faculty Ms. Mukta Kapoor, with an enriching blend of adventure and experiential learning.

Beginning in Leh, students explored Ladakhi culture and visited Thiksey and Hemis Monasteries, Shanti Stupa, and the Hall of Fame Museum, gaining insights into the region’s heritage and the valour of the Indian Armed Forces. The expedition to Pangong Lake via Chang La Pass offered valuable lessons in geography, biodiversity, and environmental conservation.

Travelling through Magnetic Hill, Gurudwara Pathar Sahib, Indus–Zanskar Sangam, Suru Valley, Kargil, and Drass, students developed a deeper appreciation of India’s geography and military history. Visits to the Kargil War Memorial and Tiger Hill View Point strengthened their respect for the sacrifices of our soldiers.

The expedition concluded in Srinagar with a memorable stay on Dal Lake and a Shikara ride, enriching students’ understanding of Kashmir’s culture and traditional way of life. The journey nurtured resilience, teamwork, adaptability, environmental awareness, and national pride.
