LAKES & MOUNTAINS - Leh Ladakh

Ladakh is not without its share of natural, visual marvels and lakes are a big part of its humbling landscapes. Within the modest landmass it occupies, the Cold Desert of Kashmir has 3 beautiful lakes - Pangong Tso Lake, Tsomoriri Lake and Tsokar Lake - each more awe inspiring than the other. In fact, not many know that the Pangong Tso changes colors with every hour and turns from emerald green color to varying hues of sky and velvet blue. The best time to visit these lakes is in summers (May to July). During the winters, these lakes get frozen and become so solid that they are better used as roads.

Pangong Tso Lake

Situated at an altitude of about 4,350 m is the famous and endorheic Pangong Lake, in Pangong region near Leh. With an extension 134 km from India to Tibet, the lake is the main attraction in Pangong region. During winter the lake freezes completely, despite of being saline and one can visit during tourist season from May to September.

It is reachable from Leh, which is only five-hour drive, while one requires an Inner Line Permit for visiting this lake as it lies on the Sino-Indian Line of Actual Control. Indian nationals can have individual permits while others require having group permits (minimum of 3 persons) accompanied by an accredited guide.

natural ass. One can also get to see groups of travelling nangpa or bar-headed birds, along with sporadic flocks of pashmina goats and champs of travelling herders.
