Zanskar, Zahar (locally) or Zangskar, is a tehsil of Zanskar district, in the Indian union territory
of Ladakh. The administrative centre is Padum (former capital of Zanskar). Zanskar, together with
the neighboring region of Ladakh, was briefly a part of the kingdom of Guge in Western Tibet.
Zanskar lies 250 km south of Kargil town on NH301.
The Zanskar Range is a mountain range in the union territory of Ladakh that separates the Zanskar
valley from Indus valley at Leh. Geologically, the Zanskar Range is part of the Tethys Himalaya, an
approximately 100-km-wide synclinorium formed by strongly folded and imbricated, weakly
metamorphosed sedimentary series. The average height of the Zanskar Range is about 6,000 m (19,700
ft). Its eastern part is known as Rupshu. Zanskar had a population of approximately 20,000 in 2020.
There have been demands to convert Zanskar into a district.
Zanskar is where the word “trekking” carries all its meaning. Long hiking days, loneliness, amazing
landscapes, and also unforgetable encounters with the local community, exceptional fauna and flora,
and everything else that is expected while trekking the Himalayas : Glaciers, high peaks, raging
rivers, canyons and so on.
You will cross 8 passes during the trek and will have to cross many wild rivers in the bottom of the
valleys. You will surely meet herds of yaks, these mythical animals who share their lives with the
locals.
Your guide will help you identifying the flora and surely observe some wild mammals like the Ibex,
the Blue Sheep, the Tibetan Wild Ass, and perhaps some endangered species like the Snow Leopard.
Please note that several parts of this trek itinerary is now connected with a road. Ask us advise on
which parts can still be done on foot without the disturbance of the road.
You can also check our other treks in Zanskar, we have some awesome new treks !
Heaven, Peace, Silence, and Tranquility at one place? Come and spend a few hours at Pangong Lake in Ladakh! A pristine place in Ladakh marked by subtle to high peaks around, crystal blue waters and the vast expansion catches the eye so much, so long as if a magic is happening right in front of the eyes. Let our Ladakh holiday packages transport you to this mesmerizing destination, where nature's grandeur unfolds in every corner. The surreal clean blue waters are actually brackish or salty in nature and this feature doesn’t let any aquatic life survive in the same. Moreover, the temperature range between -30 to -10 degrees make even this salty lake freeze with thick ice sheets, which is quite opposite in case of salt ridden water bodies.
This picturesque landscape location enhances its beauty with the arrival of migrating birds every year and attracts many travelers in search of adventure, photographs, bird-watching and chilling experience. Pangong has another unique and catchy feature; when it acts like a chameleon and changes its color from blue to green to even grey at times. The brackish water of Pangong attracts the migratory birds every year during winters in Ladakh.
