From Leh to Pangong Tso: A Scenic High-Altitude Expedition

Pick up from your hotel in Leh and start your drive to Pangong Lake, taking the scenic route via Karu. This journey begins with views of the lush green Shakti Valley, an oasis of vibrant vegetation set against the backdrop of the stark Ladakhi landscape, offering a picturesque contrast.

 

As you ascend towards Chang La, the third highest motorable pass in the world at an elevation of 5,360 meters, you’ll be treated to breathtaking panoramic views. The rugged mountain terrain and expansive sky provide a dramatic backdrop to this high-altitude adventure.

 

After descending from Chang La, arrive at Tangste village, where the local wildlife becomes a highlight. Spot endemic and migratory bird species, including the elusive Himalayan Snowcock and the graceful Bar-headed Goose. Keep an eye out for Tibetan Marmots, known for their playful behavior and often seen basking in the sun.

 

Continue towards Pangong Tso Lake, renowned for its stunningly clear blue waters that shimmer under the sunlight. The lake stretches over 134 kilometers, and its vivid colors change throughout the day, creating a mesmerizing visual experience.
