picturesque landscape we reached the Confluence Of The Indus And Zanskar River,
And drive towards Kargil enroute visiting the 11th century Lamayuru Monastery enroute visiting the
mesmerizing Moon Landscapes (you will believe why the name of this area is Moonland. Exactly the same
formations of Land are visible as on the moon), Later Drive to KARGIL over Fatu-la (13,489 ft) which is the

Post
breakfast we drive to Nubra Valley. The road journey from Leh to Nubra Valley passes over Khardung La
(The Highest Motorable Road In The World) at 5,602 Mtrs / 18,390 Ft, around 39 km from Leh. From the
pass, one can see all the way south over the Indus valley to seemingly endless peaks and ridges of the
Zanskar range, and north to the giants of the Saser massif. Nubra Valley is popularly known as Ldumra or
the valley of flowers. It is situated in the north of Ladakh between the Karakoram and Ladakh ranges of
the Himalayas. The average altitude of the valley is 10,000 Ft. above sea level.
Upon arrival in Nubra we check in at our Camp OR Hotel. Evening we drive to Hunder where you have
opportunity to ride on a bacterian camel (double humped) amidst the sand dunes of this high altitude
desert with snowcapped mountains on the horizon. Between Hunder and Diskit you come across sand
dunes besides the road. Seen in isolation you could well be amongst the sand dunes of the Thar Desert in
Rajasthan. On the return stop at Diskit which is the headquarter town of Nubra Valley. Stroll around the
bazaar observing the shops and local people going about their daily chores. Diskit is famous for 515 years
old Buddhist Monastery, lying magnificently situated on a hilltop, facing the entire Valley. Later we drive
back Camp for Dinner & Overnight
After an early breakfast we
drive to Turtuk, and a lot of other small villages, were brought under Indian control after the 1971 war,
when the Indian army pushed the Pakistani soldiers past the mountains towering the Nubra Valley. Turtuk
lies at the extreme corner of the Indian border, and hence its accessibility is a challenge. Due to
treacherous roads and sensitive army base camps, permits were not issued to Indian civilians until late
2010. Although the roads are marred by landslides and shooting stones, the 3 hour drive from Hunder to
Turtuk is nothing less than exceptional. Throughout the journey, one has the company of Shyok, as well
as the vistas, that define the barrenness which is characteristic to Ladakh. After visting we drive back to our camp or Hotel in Hunder for Overnight stay.
Post breakfast we drive towards Pangong Tso via Agham & Shyok Valley. Some of the road patches in
areas are extremely tough (towards nubra side) in terms of road conditions but no doubt the journey is
very scenic! Later after crossing this adventurous part we drive further towards Durbuk & Tangtse for
Pangong you pass through few small villages of Changthang and finally you can have a sudden view of
the Pangong lake situated at 14,000 feet (4,267 m). This famous blue brackish Lake of Pangong is 5/6
Kms wide and over 133 Kms long with half of its running the other side of the "Indo China Border". One
rarely feels so close to nature and environment and the scenery is unforgettable. After the success of 3
Idiots, this beautiful natural location has attracted more tourists from all over the world. Upon arrival we
check in at our Camp Near Pangong lake. Dinner & Overnight at the Camp.
Morning at leisure to explore the beauty of lake and later we drive back to Leh via Changla Pass 5486
Mtrs enroute visiting Thiksey an impressive complex rising tier upon tier on a hill above the village and
another 5 Kms driving through a picturesque landscape we reach to Shey Palace, The ancient capital of
