Leh Ladakh Tours

In September, we flew to the remote northernmost region of India, Jammu and Kashmir (known as “J&K”) that borders Pakistan and China, to explore the Ladakh area.  This region is on a high-altitude plateau situated between several mountain ranges, including the world’s two highest the Karakoram and the Great Himalayas.To learn about our adventures, we are sharing our itinerary and photos below. Good to note: we will share photos on our Instagram and Pinterest accounts (find the social media links on the homepage www.GlobalAdventuress.com).The remote high plateau of Changthang (meaning ?northland?) stretches from western Tibet into eastern Ladakh. This region, known as the land of the nomads gave us an experience of a lifetime. We met Tibetan nomads near their black yak-hair tents, and learned about their lifestyle. We passed through stark mountain desert landscapes, before descending to the oval-shaped banks of Tsomoriri. The lake changes its color with the light, from turquoise blue to deep cobalt. The area we passed through is an important wildlife sanctuary, harboring snow leopards and wild horses (kyang), as well as many species of birds.
