Ladakh
Pangong Lake's surreal blue, Nubra Valley's sand dunes, ancient monasteries, and the highest motorable roads.
Overview
About this package
Six days focused on Ladakh's two most photographed landscapes — the cold desert dunes of Nubra Valley with its Bactrian camels, and the impossibly blue waters of Pangong Tso stretching into Tibet. A comfortable, well-paced circuit for travellers short on time but unwilling to skip the highlights.
