Jeep Safari In High Altitude Lakes Of Ladakh
Pangong Tso Lake:
There is little habitation in the Pangong Tso lake region and even less transport. Occasional buses go as far as Tangse, but from there four wheel vehicles are required, which is why the easiest way to get here is on a two or three day Jeep Safari organized by one of the many tour operators based in Leh.

Visitors are restricted by the army from staying at Spangmik for longer than a couple of hours, and the usual itinerary involves camping at Lukung 15-km before the lake. Tour operators provide all the necessary facilities including tents and food and will arrange your permit.

Tso Moriri Lake:
With the absence of any public transport except for the odd truck, the only really feasible way to get to Tso Moriri from Leh is on a Jeep Safari. These usually follow a circular itinerary via Upshi and Chumathang to Mahe Bridge, 144-kms from Leh, before turning towards Pulga and over the Namshang-la on a rough road to Karzok.

To complete the round trip, the tour continues on towards the Manali-Leh highway taking in the lake of Tso Kar and the small village of Thukse on the way. Some taxis travelling from Manali to Leh take this route to avoid the Tanglang la on the highway when it is snowbound
