Here lies a valley cut off from the world -- a hidden secret land of Nubra. Mountains rise on both sides abruptly from the valley in great masses, forming walls of solid rock broken only by narrow side gorges that strike directly into the heart of the range, dividing the facing wall into enormous sections. The gorges have formed perfectly and symmetrical "fans" radiate out broadly from the narrow openings and extend to the middle of the valley or beyond. On these "fans" are situated the villages, scattered throughout the valley at fertile spots. The hot water spring at Panamik is always inviting to the trekkers and makes a very good camping ground.

Since it is set barely a kilometer away from the L.O.C., an Indian citizen will need an Inner Line Permit to visit this place.

It is set at a distance of approximately 205 kilometres from the Leh city. An 8-hour drive should get you here from Leh, but it all depends on your vehicle, its speed and the conditions of the weather and roads.  By
