Details
This is a lovely peak on a long ridge running south from Korzok village on the shore of the Tso Moriri lake. In July and August the entire Korzok valley is green and colorful with wild flowers giving the peak its name. Mentok in Tibetan and Ladakhi means flower. In some old maps this peak has been named Mata. Return after feeling fully refreshed from this trek.
