Zanskar Leh Ladakh Travel Guide
Zanskar Leh Ladakh Travel Guide
Located in the Ladakh region in the Indian state of Jammu & Kashmir, Zanskar range is a mountain range and a part of Tethys Himalaya. It is situated at an altitude of 19,700 feet and separate Kannaur district from Spiti in Himachal Pradesh. It is one of the most isolated regions in Ladakh and can only be reached either through a strenuous week long trek and a 14 hour drive alongside an uneven route along the Suru River. The mountain range is quite rich in terms of flora and fauna. However, a new road is under construction along the valley of the Zanskar River, connecting Padum to Nimmu on the Leh-Kargil road.
A sub-district of Kargil in state of Jammu and Kashmir, Zanskar, a semi-arid high altitude desert is one of the major draw among international and domestic adventure seekers. Administrative centre of Zanskar is located in Padum and for a brief period of time it was a part of Guge Kingdom in Tibet. Zanskar is completely cut off from rest of the world between November to May due to heavy snowfall. Most of the local population are Buddhist and the royal family still reside here although in a ceremonial role only.
