Why visit

Why Ladakh?

A cold desert at 11,000ft and upwards, where altitude shapes everything. The itinerary opens with two easy days in Leh before any pass crossing, then runs over Khardung La into Nubra and east to Pangong for a lakeside night.

Khardung La

One of the highest motorable passes on earth, taken slowly.

Pangong at dawn

The lake changing colour as the sun comes over the ridge.

Monasteries

Thiksey, Hemis and Diskit, prayers at first light.

Nubra's dunes

Sand dunes and double-humped camels at 10,000ft.
