The list below includes all major attractions as well as places that are not yet on the tourist map and receive almost no visitors.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The entire Nubra Valley is a tourist attraction in itself, to be honest. It is one of the most visited places in Ladakh and there is nothing here that is not worth seeing. Right from the natural beauty of a cold desert to the wonderful people living here, it is an experience that you will cherish for a long time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Most of the tourists spend just one day in Nubra Valley and move on either towards Leh or Pangong. In my opinion, you should stay for at least 1 day in the valley itself and explore. If could spare 2 to 3 days then you will be able to cover it in almost its entirety.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This will of course depend on the time you have in hand and the mode of your travel.\u00a0At the end of the article, I will also suggest an ideal itinerary that you can follow for visiting Nubra Valley.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_80

style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is believed that the original name of the valley was Ldumra, literally meaning valley of flowers. Now also known as the \u201cOrchard of Ladakh\u201d it is a stunningly beautiful place that attracts thousands of tourists each year.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Nubra is a Tri-armed valley formed by the Shyok and Nubra (also known as Siachen) rivers and is a prime farming land in Ladakh. The entire valley is a sight to behold in itself with its wide landscapes and Shyok river flowing through the mighty Himalayas.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Diskit is the largest town in Nubra Valley and also its headquarters. The average altitude of the valley is about 10,000 ft. For more details about the valley and to know the best way to reach there, please take a look at <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/leh-nubra-valley-travel-guide\/\">How to Plan a Trip to Nubra Valley from Leh<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/hunder-to-panamik-7-2.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-41717 size-full\" title=\"Tourist Places in Nubra Valley and Things to Do\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/hunder-to-panamik-7-2.jpg\" alt=\"Tourist Places in Nubra Valley and Things to Do\" width=\"1000\" height=\"665\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/hunder-to-panamik-7-2.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/hunder-to-panamik-7-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/hunder-to-panamik-7-2-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/hunder-to-panamik-7-2-585x389.jpg 585w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/hunder-to-panamik-7-2-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tourist_Places_in_Nubra_Valley\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Tourist Places in Nubra Valley<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There are plenty of tourist Attractions in Nubra Valley, right from the natural beauty of the place to the religious monasteries. Mentioned below is a comprehensive list.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Khardung_La_Pass\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Khardung La Pass<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Once considered the highest motorable road in the world (now this claim is disputed by most), Khardung La is one of the primary tourist attractions of the entire Ladakh region and not just Nubra Valley.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">At a height of 5,359 m (17,582 ft), this pass was built in 1976 by the Border Roads Organization. It was opened for civilian traffic in 1988. The top of the pass is at a distance of about 35 km from Leh and the entire stretch is a steep ascent. The pass offers a panoramic view of the surrounding snow-capped ranges and steep valleys.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Khardung La is not exactly in Nubra Valley though. You cross the pass to enter the valley and thus, it also gets included as a place for sightseeing in Nubra Valley. If you were short on time, you could also just make a short trip to the pass from Leh without coming to Nubra.

It is also among the top camping sites in Ladakh. Camel Safari is also available for tourists in these dunes.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sumur_Sand_Dunes\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Sumur Sand Dunes<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>These are dunes near the confluence of the Siachen and Shyok rivers in Sumur Village. The primary difference between the dunes in Hunder and Sumur is that while the ones in Hunder get crowded a lot, the ones in Sumur are still an offbeat destination.<\/p>\n<p>I spent 3 days in Sumur during my latest trip to Ladakh. During those 3 days, I saw no tourists at all at Sumur Sand Dunes. It was just me and my friend walking around and enjoying the natural beauty of the place.<\/p>\n<p>It is possibly also the best spot for self-camping in Nubra Valley. The views that you get from Sumur Dunes are charmingly beautiful. If your idea of the trip is to spend some time away from the crowd, Sumur Sand Dunes are an ideal place to do so.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/hunder-sand-dunes-2.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-41718\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/hunder-sand-dunes-2.jpg\" alt=\"Tourist Places in Nubra Valley and Things to Do\" width=\"1000\" height=\"665\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/hunder-sand-dunes-2.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/hunder-sand-dunes-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/hunder-sand-dunes-2-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/hunder-sand-dunes-2-585x389.jpg 585w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/hunder-sand-dunes-2-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bactrian_Camels\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Bactrian Camels<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Also known as the two-humped camel, it is a very rare animal.

Some believe it to be derived from \u2018Sum-yur\u2019, meaning \u2018three irrigation channels\u2019, an assumption borne out by the three sources of water that feed the village.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Another theory however says that the name came from \u2018Sum Yul,\u2019 which means \u2018three settlements\u2019. This is based on the fact that villagers here occupied two other places in the valley before they finally set up home at the present site.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Standing behind and above the village, Samstanling Gompa is the main attraction of this village.

A small hike of 15-20 minutes will take you to sacred Yarab Tso Lake, another place to visit here.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Taksha\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Taksha<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is another small village on the road.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sasoma\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Sasoma<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Another village, no tourist place as such here though.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Warshi\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Warshi<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is the last village accessible to civilians on this road unless you want to visit the Siachen Glacier base camp. 16 kilometers from Warshi is the Siachen base camp of the Indian army which makes it the least populated region close to Siachen Glacier. Earlier, tourists were only allowed as far as Panamik but in 2015, Warshi was opened for tourists as well.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Diskit\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Diskit<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This will be the first major town on the second road from Khalsar, going towards Turtuk. Diskit is the capital and headquarters of Nubra Valley. With the recent increase in tourism in Ladakh, it has converted into Nubra Valley\u2019s commercial hub.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is situated on the banks of the Shyok River and has many hotels, homestays, and guest house options, some of which are open throughout the year. There are several small restaurants in the main market where you can enjoy some Kashmiri dishes as well. The main attraction of the town is the Diskit Monastery and Maitreya Buddha.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hunder\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Hunder<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Another major town after Diskit, Hunder is primarily famous for its mesmerizing Sand dunes and the two-humped Bactrian camels. It is said that Hunder was earlier the capital of what was known as the Nubra Kingdom in ancient times.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Ruins of buildings from that era are still present here, including the King&#8217;s palace, the Langchen Khar (also known as Elephant&#8217;s Palace), and a fort called Gula at the top of the hill. There are also two Buddhist temples here known as the white temple (Lhakhang Karpo) and the red temple (Lhakhang Marpo).<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Thoise\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Thoise<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is the next village after Hunder on the road towards Turtuk. 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. Thoise stands for &#8220;Transit Halt Of Indian Soldiers Enroute&#8221; to Siachen.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bukdang\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Bukdang<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Also known as Bogdang, upon entering you will realize that the majority of the population has turned from Buddhist to Muslim. This region is inhabited by Balti people. This entire area was taken over by the Indian army in 1971 before which it was part of Pakistan.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/turtuk-8-2.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-41726 size-full\" title=\"Tourist Places in Nubra Valley and Things to Do\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/turtuk-8-2.jpg\" alt=\"Tourist Places in Nubra Valley and Things to Do\" width=\"1000\" height=\"665\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/turtuk-8-2.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/turtuk-8-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/turtuk-8-2-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/turtuk-8-2-585x389.jpg 585w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/turtuk-8-2-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Itinerary_for_Nubra_Valley\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Itinerary for Nubra Valley<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As you can probably guess already, visiting all these places would easily take 3-4 days. In my opinion, Nubra Valley is a place where you can spend this much time easily.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">However, most of the people just make it a journey for 2 days, Leh to Nubra on day 1 and Nubra to Leh on day 2. Some people stay here for a day which is highly recommended. Depending on how many days you have in hand, you can choose either of the following suggested itineraries for Nubra Valley.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Itinerary_1_Nubra_Valley_in_1_Day\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Itinerary 1: Nubra Valley in 1 Day<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I would not recommend this but if you planning to do Nubra Valley in one day then ensure that you start as early as you can from Leh. Cross Khardung La in the early hours and continue towards Nubra Valley.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Once you cross Khalsar, you need to decide which road you want to travel on as doing both stretches, (Warshi and Turtuk) in one day can become a challenge.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Alternatively, what you can also do is rather than driving all the way to Turtuk or Warshi, return from somewhere in between. For example, from Khalsar, take the road towards Diskit. Reach Hunder by noon, see the sand dunes and Bactrian camels, and start your return journey.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Before Khalsar, take the road towards Warshi. Drive until Panamik, see the hot water springs, and be on your way to Leh. Whatever you do, please ensure that you plan your journey in a way that sees you back at Khardung La top by 5 PM.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-pack\/\">Clothes for Ladakh Trip &#8211; What to Pack<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Itinerary_2_Nubra_Valley_in_2_Days\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Itinerary 2: Nubra Valley in 2 Days<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This is the most common way of traveling to Nubra Valley. If you have 2 days in hand, you can follow the following itinerary.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Day 1: Leh to Turtuk<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Once again, start early from Leh. Cross Khardung La in the early hours and from Khalsar take the road towards Diskit. Depending on the time you have in hand, choose what places you can visit from the list I mentioned above and continue driving towards Turtuk for a night stay.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Another way of doing this is to continue driving all the way to Turtuk and make sure that you are there by noon. After sightseeing, start your return journey and stay at Diskit for the night. Diskit Monastery, Maitreya Buddha, Sand dunes, and Bactrian camels are a must-see.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Day 2: Turtuk to Warshi to Leh \/ Pangong Lake<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">On day 2, start early from Diskit and take the road towards Warshi. Drive all the way, visit Samstanling Monastery, Panamik hot water springs, and Yarab Tso on the way, and start your return journey to Leh by 2 PM latest. Or you can take the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/agham-shyok-road\/\">Shyok route to go straight to Pangong Lake<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Itinerary_3_Nubra_Valley_in_3_Days\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Itinerary 3: Nubra Valley in 3 Days<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you can stay in Nubra Valley for a day then nothing like it. If you are doing this journey in 3 days, you will have plenty of time for sightseeing and will be able to cover most of the places. You can follow the following itinerary and from the list above, pick where you want to stop and which place you want to see on the way.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Day 1: Leh to Warshi to Panamik\/Sumur<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Start early from Leh, drive all the way to Warshi for sightseeing, and return to either Panamik or Sumur for a night stay.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Day 2: Panamik\/Sumur to Turtuk to Diskit<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">On day 2, drive all the way to Turtuk for sightseeing and return to Diskit for a night stay. If it interests you, you may choose to stay at Turtuk for the night too.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Day 3: Diskit to Leh \/ Pangong Lake<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">On day 3, you will return to Leh. Since you have some time in hand and if you are feeling adventurous, you may take the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wari-la-pass\/\">Wari La route<\/a><\/strong> for a return journey rather than coming back via Khardung La. Or you can take the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/agham-shyok-road\/\">Shyok route<\/a><\/strong> to go straight to Pangong Lake.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Best_Vehicle_for_Nubra_Valley\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Best Vehicle for Nubra Valley<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Road conditions in Nubra Valley are not really that bad. You will find a lot of locals here driving around Maruti Alto as well.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The only challenge is crossing Khardung La. So you really need to check if your vehicle is capable enough of high altitudes and has sufficient ground clearance.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">However, if you have driven your car to Leh already, then you need not worry about taking it to Nubra. The terrain you would have already driven on is way worse than what you will find here. The same applies to motorcycles as well.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Tourist Places in Nubra Valley &#8211; Conclusion<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I hope this information on tourist places in Nubra Valley and things to do was of help. \u00a0If you have any questions, you can\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/vargiskhan\/\">contact me on Instagram<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0and I will be happy to answer.
