Overview

The weeklong ‘Journey to Ladakh’ tour explores two naturally furnished regions of Ladakh- Pangong Lake and Nubra Valley. The Nubra Valley is a cluster of tiny villages with irrigated and fertile land. The presence of Buddhist monasteries can be rightly attributed to its natives, who are followers of Buddhism at large. Next is Pangong Lake, an important breeding ground for migratory birds such as Brahmini Ducks and Bar-headed geese. Along with these two places, the 6-night and 7-day Journey to Ladakh tour package encompasses various challenging high-altitude passes and other prime attractions such as Leh, Alchi, Khardung La, Hunder, and Turtuk.
