Pangong Tso lake in Ladakh

Pangong Tso translated as "high grassland lake" in Tibetan is a spectacular lake in the Himalayas situated at a height of about 4,350 m and 134 km long. The colour of Pangong Tso Lake changes to the different shades of blue, green and an unusual red. Pangong Tso is an endorheic lake because the water flow is terminated before reaching the ocean hence the minerals and salts are retained in this lake. Since there is no way for salt outflow, the water in the lake is salty. But during winter from November to March, the lake freezes completely even though it is a saline lake. So the best time to visit this dazzling lake is during summer between June and October.

Due to the presence of less fresh water in the lake, vegetation in this lake is very low. There are no fish or other aquatic life in the lake. Only some crust oceans such as shrimps live in this lake. This lake has many migrating birds coming here for breeding. The Bar-headed goose and Brahmini ducks are mostly seen here during summer which is visual treat for tourists. Some of the wildlife species living in this lake are kiang and the Marmot. Pangong Lake is a disputed territory. Only one third of the lake is in India. The remaining two third of the lake is in Tibet which is controlled by China. The Line of Actual Control passes through the lake. Chine controls the 20 km from the Line of Actual Control which is claimed by India. The western end also remains as a dispute area between India and Pakistan.

This lake is a five hours drive from Leh in Ladakh of Jammu and Kashmir. The road to Pangong Tso Lake Ladakh lies at an altitude of 17,352 feet above sea level. This road trip is enjoyed by all hard core adventure lovers. After a tough drive of 5 hours, the stunning beauty of this lake will make all forget about the hardship experienced. The climax scene of 3 idiots, Mani Ratnam's Dil Se song ‘Satrangi Re’ and many other popular film scenes and songs are shot in this incredible location for its scenic beauty. Accommodation near Pangong Lake is very less and costly. Hence camping is mostly preferred by the visiting adventure seekers. The lake’s colour changing property, adventurous location and peaceful atmosphere are the highlights of this water miracle which attracts many people around the world. This serene lake with unbelievable magic is a must-see destination for any travel lover.

    Md's 10 days trip to Ladakh

    The trip waa designed beautifully and captured the significant parts of Ladakh which we desired to travel. Hotels were good except Grand Yasmin which was too busy to close rather than take good care of guests, food options were limited and okayish. The Pal and Organic Boutique were good, only the re
    ception at the Pal is very novice. Trip Trail personnel Mr Aman was very helpful throughout the trip addressing to any hiccups encountered during the trip. Shoutout to Mr Rigen Gurmet who is an exceptional driver and very kind. Thank you Trip Trail for making this trip a memorable one. Khardungla Pass and view points, camel ride in Hunder, Ride from Nubra to Pangong, freezing glacier water, thrilling roads of Changla Pass covered in snow

    Riju's 6 days trip to Ladakh

    I am particularly not happy with the fact that TravelTriangle is deducting extra charges on use of debit card for online payments. Such charges don't prevail in any portals if its debit card but do exist if using credit card. On reaching out to Lazy Yatra coordinator, they have put the entire blame
    on Travel Triangle on such deductions and only travel triangle can return the extra Considering this and below points, it would be good to have some equivalent money reimbursed on the same. I understand that mistakes happen but i am willing to let it go if you suitably reimburse and recommend your services to my friends who are now asking me for travel reference to Leh. Other points were: 1. Out of 4 hotels that I stayed during the trip, the Misty hills cabins and Shanti nest hotel were the only ones that had professional decorum to provide bottled waters and rooms were quite ready to occupy. 2. I was very specific to coordinator Mr.Akhil to provide hotel rooms near or within Leh market for my last day but it didn't execute well. 3. Some of the places listed in my itinerary have been under renovation for months but still such places were included and I eventually didn't visit that place. 4. Guru residency even charged for 2 water bottles that were provided on my first day stay at hotel which should have been complimentary. No welcome drink was provided. Regards, RM 9677212048

    Akanksha's 9 days trip to Ladakh

    We had a really memorable, delightful experience during our Ladakh trip, all thanks to Mr Santa Singh ji for his constant support and assistance throughout the trip. He provided us with excellent quality hotels even in such remote locations, great transport facility and a well planned itinerary that
    covered most of the places in an organised places. He even organised a special cab for us to watch the lovely sound and light show at the Hall of Fame in Leh. Moreover, all this was done at a reasonable, competitive cost!! Would definitely recommend Travo guider and Travel Triangle for sure for all future trips!! Thanks a lot!

    AVINASH KAMATH

    New delhi

    Avinash's 5 days trip to Ladakh

    We had a great overall experience with TripTrail. In Kashmir and Ladakh due to cab driver union, the cab and driver changed. The first driver allocated to us was amazing. His name was Nubroo cab number ending with 9072. He was very helpful in explaining about places and he even assisted us in taki
    ng our pics. I give 5 star for Nubroo (cab number ending 9072). He was with us from leh to nubra valley then to pangong tso and then back to leh. The second cab driver Aga (cab number ending with 9070) was not good. He was an escapist. He kept asking if we can avoid visiting the places in itinerary and kept showing disinterested in driving and even lied to us openly saying this place is not good let us skip it. Such drivers give bad experience to tourists. He was there with us from leh to srinagar. The Srinagar driver Shakeel (cab number ending with 6470) was average. First day he tried his best to be professional. Next day onwards he showed minor disinterest and he even argued with Indian Army official in one incident. I feel such things is common among drivers in that region. He was with us for Kashmir local sight seeing. Hotels booked by TripTrail was very good. We loved the choice of hotels provided by them. 1. Sangaylay palace at leh - excellent rooms and food. 2. Organic boutique hunder - excellent view and organic food. 3. Royal foster pangong - here the owner of cottage was very helpful. 4. Chutuk heights Kargil - excellent view of Suru river. 5. Dawn house boat dal lake srinagar - excellent houseboat experience 6. Hotel blossom Srinagar - Good and safe environment. The travel agent was very helpful and always available on call. Overall I am happy that I chose triptrail.

    Ezioassassin's 6 days trip to Ladakh

    The overall trip experience was excellent. Amaan was very helpful and cooperative. The driver was very friendly, good, and supportive. But the car provided by the union was not good. It was an old Innova that was shaking at a speed above 80 kmph. Due to this, he was driving below 80 kmph, and our jo
    urney from one destination to another took more time. It was a great experience booking with TripTrail and Travel Triangle. River rafting at Sangam point in zanskar river. Atv and camel ride in Nubra, Pangong lake.
