Yaye Tso Lake is a high-altitude lake located on the Chushul – Mahe road in Ladakh. It is one of the lesser-known lakes of Ladakh, fed by the melting waters of the surrounding glaciers, at an altitude of 4,820 meters (15,814 ft).<\/p>\n
Hor La Pass, also spelled as Horla Pass, is a high-altitude pass in Ladakh. The elevation of the pass is 4,966 meters (16,974 ft) and it is one of the two passes on the road between Chushul and Mahe.<\/p>\n
Together, both of these places are located in one of the least-explored regions of Ladakh. Not a lot of people travel on this road but the ones that do will surely be charmed by the scenic beauty they will witness on this route.<\/p>\n
I recently traveled to both these places during my recent trip to Ladakh. We were actually on our way to Tso Moriri but decided to take a bifurcation just to go to the Horla Pass and see Yaye Tso. To read the previous parts of the travelogue, you can follow the links below.<\/p>\n
Journey So Far:<\/strong><\/p>\n A return journey from Mahe Bridge to Yaye Tso took us about 4 hours, a bit longer than I expected. But in the end, it was all worth it. You can take a look at the video below of our journey to know what I am talking about.<\/p>\n\n
