Its stunning landscape, high-altitude passes, beautiful lakes, snow-capped peaks, and mesmerizing valleys are enough to keep your gaze and your camera occupied for as long as you stay here. You have not really visited Ladakh unless you have been on a drive from Leh to Nubra Valley.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Of all the tourist places in Ladakh, Nubra Valley is probably the most easily accessible of all. A well-maintained metalled road takes you across the high altitude pass of Khardung La and deep inside the valley of Nubra. Out here, you see some of the most beautiful vistas you have ever seen and experience a culture that you will not elsewhere in the country.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In this post, I will provide a complete travel guide on how you can plan a trip to Nubra Valley from Leh, including details like how to reach, where to stay, what to see, public transport, and itinerary planning.

Its original name is believed to be &#8220;Ldumra&#8221; meaning \u201cValley Of Flowers\u201d.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Now also known as the Orchard of Ladakh, the Valley receives visitors throughout the year, though the peak tourist season is between June to September. Diskit is the capital of Nubra Valley and is located about 120 km from Leh.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Until 2010, the valley was open for civilians only until Panamik and Hunder. But after the boost in tourism in Ladakh, the last accessible points were moved ahead to Siachen Base Camp and Turtuk, opening more areas in the valley for tourists.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The primary road access to Nubra Valley is over Khardung La pass which is open throughout the year. An alternative route opened in 2008 connects the valley to Sakti village via Wari La. A third route, made operational in 2013, connects it from the Pangong Tso side, via the villages of Durbuk and Shyok.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/leh-to-hunder-4-1.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-41692 size-full\" title=\"nubra valley\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/leh-to-hunder-4-1.jpg\" alt=\"nubra valley\" width=\"1000\" height=\"563\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/leh-to-hunder-4-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/leh-to-hunder-4-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/leh-to-hunder-4-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/leh-to-hunder-4-1-585x329.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Inner_Line_Permit_for_Nubra_Valley\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Inner Line Permit for Nubra Valley<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Nubra Valley is considered a part of the inner line, areas closer to the border.

From here, the road straight goes to Sumur, Panamik, and Warshi while the one on the left leads to Diskit and Turtuk.\u00a0Both these roads run right through Nubra Valley and a drive on both is highly recommended.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sumur_%E2%80%93_Panamik_%E2%80%93_Warshi_%E2%80%93_Siachen_Base_Camp\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Sumur &#8211; Panamik &#8211; Warshi &#8211; Siachen Base Camp<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I will first explain the road that goes towards the right to Panamik and Warshi and then the one going towards Diskit, Hunder, and Turtuk.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The road after Khalsar and throughout Nubra Valley remains in good condition and shortly you will realize why Nubra Valley is so famous.\u00a0Greenery will start coming more in the picture of a cold desert and it would start looking like an oasis.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/leh-to-hunder-14-1.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-41693 size-full\" title=\"nubra valley\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/leh-to-hunder-14-1.jpg\" alt=\"nubra valley\" width=\"1000\" height=\"665\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/leh-to-hunder-14-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/leh-to-hunder-14-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/leh-to-hunder-14-1-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/leh-to-hunder-14-1-585x389.jpg 585w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/leh-to-hunder-14-1-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">While at Sumur, visit the 150-year-old Samstanling Gompa that this village is famous for. There are also sand dunes in Sumur that are worth a visit. As opposed to the sand dunes in Hunder, these are almost never crowded.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A drive further 20 km will take you to the village of Panamik, another town where a lot of people prefer to stay while visiting Nubra Valley. There are several budget guesthouses and homestays available here.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The primary attraction of Panamik is its hot water spring. Locals have constructed bathrooms around the spring and there is a proper bathing arrangement in case you want to take a drip.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The trek to the famous Yarab Tso Lake also starts about 6 kilometers before Panamik Village. A round trip to the lake will take you about an hour and a half.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">After Panamik, you will reach Warshi which is the last village on this road before Siachen Glacier. There is a check post in Warshi where you will need to register yourself before continuing for another 16 kilometers on this road to the Indian Army base camp for Siachen Glacier.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The condition of the road on this entire route is a mix of good, average, and bad. The bad part is mostly limited between Warshi and Base Camp only. Otherwise, it is a smooth drive all the way.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/siachen-base-camp-1.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-41694 size-full\" title=\"siachen base camp\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/siachen-base-camp-1.jpg\" alt=\"siachen base camp\" width=\"1000\" height=\"665\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/siachen-base-camp-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/siachen-base-camp-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/siachen-base-camp-1-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/siachen-base-camp-1-585x389.jpg 585w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/siachen-base-camp-1-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Diskit_%E2%80%93_Hunder\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Diskit &#8211; Hunder<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Now let us talk about the other side of Nubra Valley, where the villages of Diskit, Hunder, and Turtuk are. After you have arrived in Khalsar and reached the junction, you will now take the left turn which will take you to Diskit, the headquarters of Nubra Valley.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The primary attraction of Diskit is the ancient Diskit Gompa which is believed to be from the 14th century. Right in front of the gompa is the grand and magnificent Maitreya Buddha statue.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There is also a statue of a Deity in the Gompa holding a mummified human forearm and head [believed to be of a Mongol Warrior] in its hand. It also presents a Panoramic view of Diskit village and the valley around from its roof.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A lot of people visiting Nubra Valley prefer to stay at Diskit because it has the largest number of hotels and guesthouses in the valley. Jio, BSNL, and Airtel work very well in Diskit with good data connectivity.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/diskit-gompa-3.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-41695 size-full\" title=\"diskit gompa\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/diskit-gompa-3.jpg\" alt=\"diskit gompa\" width=\"1000\" height=\"665\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/diskit-gompa-3.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/diskit-gompa-3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/diskit-gompa-3-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/diskit-gompa-3-585x389.jpg 585w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/diskit-gompa-3-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">9 kms from Diskit on a moderate road and amidst fruit orchids is the village of Hunder, famous for its sand dunes and camels. If you were staying at Hunder for the night and it was a full moon night, do not miss the sight of these sand dunes under a full moon.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Another amazing thing you will get to see at Hunder is the Bactrian Camels, commonly known as the two-humped camel. Unlike regular camels, they have two humps on their backs and are very rare. You can even get a ride on this camel. The camel safari in fact is one of the tourist attractions of the valley.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/nubra-valley-12.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-33270 size-full\" title=\"camels in hunder\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/nubra-valley-12.jpg\" alt=\"camels in hunder\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/nubra-valley-12.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/nubra-valley-12-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/nubra-valley-12-200x150.jpg 200w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/nubra-valley-12-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/nubra-valley-12-585x439.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Thoise_%E2%80%93_Bogdang\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Thoise &#8211; Bogdang<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you continue driving further ahead after Hunder, you will reach Thoise. It stands for \u201cTransit Halt Of Indian Soldiers En-route\u201d to Siachen and is the Next village after Hunder.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This is the only large piece of flat land in the area and serves as a military airfield. The airstrip there is a critical facility used to supply men and materials to the Siachen glacier and other border areas on the Indo-Pak border.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">After Thoise comes Bogdang, another small village en route. Upon entering this village, you will realize that the majority of the population has turned from Buddhist to Muslim. This region is mostly inhabited by Balti people. This entire area was taken over by the Indian army in 1971 before which it was a part of Pakistan.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Also read: <a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/ladakh-checklist-things-to-carry-for-ladakh-trip\/\">Important Things That You Must Carry for Ladakh Trip<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Turtuk_%E2%80%93_Thang\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Turtuk &#8211; Thang<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Finally, after a drive of about 90 kilometers from Diskit, you will reach the village of Turtuk. One of the gateways to Siachen Glacier, Turtuk is the last outpost in India after which the Pakistan-controlled Gilgit-Baltistan begins.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Up until now, everything in Ladakh was barren and brown. Turtuk on the other hand is all lush and green. The landscape will change completely, and you will find fields of apricots, apples, tomatoes, cauliflowers, and cabbages all around.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The population here is mostly Muslims of Balti origin.\u00a0 It was opened for Tourists in 2010 and people here primarily depend on agriculture and tourism for a living. For more details, please take a look at <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/turtuk\/\">Turtuk Village in Ladakh<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The scenery and the beautiful landscape of the village are its greatest attractions. There is also a waterfall here but you will need to trek for that a bit. Turtuk is also famous for walking sticks made from the horns of wild ibex.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/turtuk-8.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-41696 size-full\" title=\"turtuk village\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/turtuk-8.jpg\" alt=\"turtuk village\" width=\"1000\" height=\"665\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/turtuk-8.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/turtuk-8-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/turtuk-8-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/turtuk-8-585x389.jpg 585w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/turtuk-8-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Thang is the farthest point of the Turtuk sector towards the LOC, after which it was all Pakistan. It is located right next to the line of control, at a distance of about 11 kilometers from Turtuk.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Standing in Thang, you can actually get a clear view of the Pakistani side of the village. There are a few restaurants here and a border viewpoint as well.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/nubra-valley-3.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-33263 size-full\" title=\"leh to nubra valley\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/nubra-valley-3.jpg\" alt=\"leh to nubra valley\" width=\"1000\" height=\"666\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/nubra-valley-3.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/nubra-valley-3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/nubra-valley-3-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/nubra-valley-3-585x390.jpg 585w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/nubra-valley-3-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Route_2_Leh_to_Nubra_via_Wari_La\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Route 2: Leh to Nubra via Wari La<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To be honest this is not really a route that people take to reach Nubra Valley but to actually get back from Nubra Valley to Leh. It can also be a route to go straight from Nubra Valley to Pangong Tso without coming back to Leh.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Off-late, this road is gaining popularity among the adventurous types due to the difficulty it presents. Some people chose to reach Nubra via Khardung La and return via Wari La.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Be advised though that crossing Wari La will be a challenge for both you and your vehicle. Of the three roads connecting Nubra Valley to other parts of Leh, this route is the toughest and longest.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You can also take a look at <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/nubra-valley-to-pangong-tso-via-wari-la\/\">Nubra to Pangong Tso via Wari La<\/a> <\/strong>where I have explained this route in detail. But for a brief overview, the\u00a0route would be as mentioned below.<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Leh &#8211; Karu = 34 km<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Karu &#8211; Sakti = 15 km<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Sakti &#8211; Wari La &#8211; Agham = 60 km<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Agham &#8211; Khalsar = 26 km<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Start early from Leh because this journey will take some time. Take the Manali Leh highway and reach Karu. The road will be good so shouldn&#8217;t take long to get here.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">At Sakti, you will notice a board pointing you toward Wari La and Agham. Turn here and after a little while, you will start ascending towards Wari La.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Upon crossing the pass, you will drive down to the village of Agham. From there, take the road towards Khalsar and continue to Nubra Valley, as detailed previously in this article.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/thang-village-19.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-41697 size-full\" title=\"nubra valley\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/thang-village-19.jpg\" alt=\"nubra valley\" width=\"1000\" height=\"665\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/thang-village-19.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/thang-village-19-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/thang-village-19-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/thang-village-19-585x389.jpg 585w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/thang-village-19-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Route_3_Leh_to_Nubra_Valley_via_Agham_Shyok_Road\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Route 3: Leh to Nubra Valley via Agham Shyok Road<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This is also not really a route that you take to reach Nubra Valley from Leh. It is rather a way to get to Nubra Valley from Pangong Tso or vice versa.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The travel time by this road between both places is about 6-7 hours.\u00a0 Please read <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/agham-shyok-road\/\">Nubra to Pangong Tso via Agham Shyok Road<\/a><\/strong> for a detailed explanation of this route.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A recommended way of planning your Ladakh itinerary is to reach Nubra Valley by Khardung La road and then continue to Pangong Lake directly by the Shyok road. This will save you a day and you will not have to come back to Leh from Nubra Valley.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The entire distance of this road is a smooth drive and is doable by even Sedans and Hatchbacks. There are a few bad stretches in between but for the most part, it will be an enjoyable journey on a flat road.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/leh-to-hunder-19-1.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-41698 size-full\" title=\"nubra valley\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/leh-to-hunder-19-1.jpg\" alt=\"nubra valley\" width=\"1000\" height=\"665\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/leh-to-hunder-19-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/leh-to-hunder-19-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/leh-to-hunder-19-1-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/leh-to-hunder-19-1-585x389.jpg 585w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/leh-to-hunder-19-1-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Best_Time_to_Visit_Nubra_Valley\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Best Time to Visit Nubra Valley<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The best time to visit Nubra valley however is between June and September when all the roads to and In Ladakh remain open. Guesthouses and hotels too are all operational this time. Internal roads like Shyok Road and Wari La will also be accessible and will make it easy for you to plan your overall itinerary.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If not in these months, then the next best time would be April and May. The only catch is that the Srinagar Leh and Manali Leh routes may not be open yet and you may have to catch a flight to Leh.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Contrary to common belief, Nubra Valley actually remains open throughout the year. The road from Leh may temporarily close due to snowfall at Khardung La, but <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/bro.gov.in\/\">BRO<\/a><\/strong> usually restores the connectivity as soon as they are able to. So if you were planning a winter trip to Ladakh, even then you can include Nubra Valley in your itinerary.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Where_to_Stay_in_Nubra_Valley\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Where to Stay in Nubra Valley<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Diskit is the headquarters of Nubra Valley and has the maximum number of hotels and guest houses. Even several locals here take tourists as paying guests for a very moderate charge.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Hunder, Sumur, Panamik, and Turtuk also have a few decent enough guesthouses available so you can choose to stay at either of these towns for the night.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Where to stay will entirely depend on your itinerary. If you were going to stay just one night, I would recommend doing so in Diskit. It will make it easier for you to visit Diskit Monastery and Hunder that way. The next day, while returning to Leh or going to Pangong, you can make a short visit to Panamik Village.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you were going to spend a day in Nubra Valley, my recommendation would be that you go all the way to Turtuk, spend a night in the village, and return to Diskit or Panamik the next day.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For more details on accommodation and contact details of several hotels in Nubra Valley, please read <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/accommodation-nubra-valley\/\">Accommodation In Nubra \u2013 Hotels, Guest Houses and Homestays<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/shacho-guest-house-1.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-41701 size-full\" title=\"nubra valley\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/shacho-guest-house-1.jpg\" alt=\"nubra valley\" width=\"1000\" height=\"451\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/shacho-guest-house-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/shacho-guest-house-1-300x135.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/shacho-guest-house-1-768x346.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/shacho-guest-house-1-585x264.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Places_to_Visit_in_Nubra_Valley\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Places to Visit in Nubra Valley<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I have actually covered this information in detail in another article,\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/tourist-places-in-nubra-valley-things-to-do\/\">Tourist Places in Nubra Valley &amp; Things to Do<\/a> <\/strong>that you can take a look at.

Diskit is at an altitude of 3,100 meters (10,170 ft) and Turtuk is at around 9,846 ft whereas Leh is at 3,500 meters (11,500 ft).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So the chances of anyone suffering from AMS here are very low. People are actually advised to visit Nubra Valley first in order to give their bodies time to acclimatize before moving on to other high-altitude places like Pangong Lake and Tso Moriri.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For more information on altitude sickness, its symptoms, and tips on how you can avoid it, please take a look at <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/dealing-acute-mountain-sickness-ladakh\/\">How to Handle Acute Mountain Sickness in Ladakh<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Clothes_to_Pack\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Clothes to Pack<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Actually, it would apply to what clothes you pack for your Ladakh trip, not just Nubra Valley. The trick is to bring clothes in layers that can be worn on top of one another.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If visiting in the summer season, you will not even need a light jacket during the daytime, that is how warm it can actually get.\u00a0The morning and night will still be very cold though.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The weather will depend on both the time of the day and the place you were at. For example, it will be very warm in Diskit and Leh but very cold at Khardung La Top.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you were in the Sun, you would be feeling hot anywhere in the valley but the cold in the wind will have you reaching out for a jacket the moment you step into the shade.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To deal with weather like this, you should bring clothes that you can add or remove in layers as convenient. Do not bring all heavy woolen clothes or all light cotton ones. Do not also pack tight clothes that you cannot put on top of one another. For more details on this topic, please take a look at <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-pack\/\">Clothes for Ladakh Trip: What to Pack<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Mobile_Network_in_Nubra_Valley\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Mobile Network in Nubra Valley<\/span><br \/>\n<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Airtel and Jio have the best service in Nubra Valley.

BSNL actually has the best network in all of Ladakh and you can get reception even in the remotest areas, where no other network will work. But the voice quality and data connectivity are actually not that good.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/nubra-valley-14.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-33272 size-full\" title=\"leh to nubra valley road trip\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/nubra-valley-14.jpg\" alt=\"leh to nubra valley road trip\" width=\"1000\" height=\"666\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/nubra-valley-14.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/nubra-valley-14-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/nubra-valley-14-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/nubra-valley-14-585x390.jpg 585w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/nubra-valley-14-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Public_Transport_Services\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Public Transport Services<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There are regular buses and shared cabs between Leh and Nubra Valley. You can easily plan your journey even by public transport. The buses are limited and there may not be a daily bus available but shared cabs travel on the route every day. You can find one from the Leh or Diskit bus stand itself.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The fare per person for shared cabs between Leh and Diskit is about Rs. 500 per person. Between Diskit, Panamik, or Turtuk, it will be about Rs. 200 per person.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For complete details on the bus service including timings, schedule, and fare, please take a look at <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/leh-to-nubra-valley-bus-service-fare-schedule-book\/\">Leh to Nubra Valley Bus service \u2013 Fare, Schedule &amp; Timings<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Leh_to_Nubra_Valley_Itinerary\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Leh to Nubra Valley Itinerary<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The itinerary can be planned in several ways depending on what your next destination is and the time in hand.

If you just had 1 day in hand, then board a bus or shared cab for Diskit and stay there for the night. Visit Diskit Monastery, and Hunder Sand dunes in the afternoon and evening. The next day, you will catch a bus or shared cab and return to Leh.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you were staying for two days, then Diskit will still be your destination on Day 1. The next day, there is an afternoon bus for Turtuk from Diskit that you can catch to get there. Stay in Turtuk for the night and return to Diskit again by bus.\u00a0From there, you can again catch a shared cab for Leh or move on to Panamik to spend another day in the valley.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Also read: <a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/best-time-to-visit-ladakh\/\">Best time to Visit Leh Ladakh<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Leh_to_Nubra_Valley_Road_Conditions\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Leh to Nubra Valley Road Conditions<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Road conditions in Nubra Valley are surprisingly smooth and maybe the best that you will come across in Ladakh. The only bad sections are between South and North Pullu if you are coming via Khardung La.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">On the Wari La route, most of the road from Agham to Sakti is actually bad. The Shyok road is a smooth drive all the way with a few bad patches in between.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/hunder-to-panamik-7.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-41700 size-full\" title=\"nubra valley\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/hunder-to-panamik-7.jpg\" alt=\"nubra valley\" width=\"1000\" height=\"665\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/hunder-to-panamik-7.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/hunder-to-panamik-7-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/hunder-to-panamik-7-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/hunder-to-panamik-7-585x389.jpg 585w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/hunder-to-panamik-7-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Best_Vehicle\"><\/span><strong>Best Vehicle<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There is no best vehicle as such for visiting Nubra Valley. Except for the bad section between South Pullu and North Pullu, the road across Khardung La is a good one, and even a hatchback and Sedan can be used for visiting here.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you have an SUV then you can take either of the three routes I explained above. However if in a car with low ground clearance, then stick to the Khardung La road and Shyok route. Do not venture towards Wari La Pass.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The same applies to motorcycles as well. If on a 350 CC or 500 CC motorcycle in good condition, all roads are accessible. If on a motorcycle with a smaller engine or scooter, then better to skip Wari La entirely.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"ATMs_and_Banking_Services\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">ATMs and Banking Services<\/span><br \/>\n<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There is no Bank or ATM in Nubra Valley or on the way.
