The valley is connected to the rest of the country by just a single motorable road that remains closed for 6 months a year. Public transport services in Zanskar Valley are available in the form of buses and shared cabs but both are not that easily available.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">With that being said, with careful planning and a little bit of patience, you can visit the valley by public transport as well. It is in fact a great way to keep things within a limited budget. Though remote, the region still is well populated and there are several small villages en route and around Padum.<\/p>\n<p>Please note that in this post, I will only talk about your choices of public transport services in Zanskar Valley.

km. The road conditions are mostly good until Sankoo but after that, you will mostly be on a dirt trail which will terribly limit your speed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If to reach Padum on the same day is on your mind, you must leave Kargil early in the morning to make it to your destination before dark. By public transport, it is best to break this journey into 2 days. You can reach Rangdum on Day 1 and continue to Padum on Day 2.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/public-transport-in-zanskar-2.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-32365 size-full\" title=\"Public Transport Services in Zanskar Valley\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/public-transport-in-zanskar-2.jpg\" alt=\"Public Transport Services in Zanskar Valley\" width=\"1000\" height=\"563\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/public-transport-in-zanskar-2.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/public-transport-in-zanskar-2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/public-transport-in-zanskar-2-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/public-transport-in-zanskar-2-585x329.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bus_Service_in_Zanskar_Valley\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Bus Service in Zanskar Valley<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This is the cheapest mode of travel to Zanskar Valley but the frequency of the buses is severely limited.

The only catch is that it can be an expensive affair and also a little complicated.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Due to the restrictions imposed by the local taxi unions here, you can only hire a cab for Zanskar valley that has a Kargil registration number. A cab from Leh or Srinagar cannot take you there.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The taxi system in Kargil works on a token basis. So if you want to hire a cab in Kargil for Padum, you can only take a taxi that has a token for your day of travel. This taxi will only be good enough to drop you at Padum but cannot be used for local sightseeing or your drop back to Kargil. For both these purposes, you will have to rent another cab from Padum.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Kargil_to_Padum_Taxi_Fare\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Kargil to Padum Taxi Fare<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A private cab from <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/kargil-to-padum-travel-guide\/\">Kargil to Padum<\/a><\/strong> will cost you anywhere between Rs. 13000 to Rs. 15000. From Padum, you will hire another cab to bring you back to Kargil which will again cost you about the same.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For local sightseeing around Padum, depending on how many days you hire the cab for and the places you chose to visit, it will cost you approximately Rs. 4000 to Rs. 5000. So the entire affair of visiting the Zanskar valley in a shared cab will cost you close enough to Rs. 50,000.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also Read:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/zanskar-valley-taxi-rates\/\">Zanskar Valley Taxi Rates \u2013 Updated Rate List<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Taxi_rates_in_Padum_for_Local_Sightseeing\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Taxi rates in Padum for Local Sightseeing<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">To Pishu\u00a0 &#8211; One way Rs. 1800, both ways, Rs 2400<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">To Rangdum\u00a0 &#8211;\u00a0 Rs. 4000 &amp;\u00a0 6000<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">To Reru &#8211; Rs. 1300 &amp;\u00a0 2500<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">To Zangla &#8211; Rs. 2000 &amp;\u00a0 3000<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">To Karsha &#8211; Rs. 520 &amp; 690<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/public-transport-in-zanskar-4.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-32367 size-full\" title=\"rangdum gompa\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/public-transport-in-zanskar-4.jpg\" alt=\"rangdum gompa\" width=\"1000\" height=\"539\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/public-transport-in-zanskar-4.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/public-transport-in-zanskar-4-300x162.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/public-transport-in-zanskar-4-768x414.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/public-transport-in-zanskar-4-585x315.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Zanskar_Valley_in_a_Shared_Taxi\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Zanskar Valley in a Shared Taxi<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is the preferred mode of transport for the locals because they are more frequently available than a Bus. You can get a shared cab from Kargil to Padum for approximately Rs. 1500 per person. It is a 12 hrs drive straight with few breaks in between.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In the same way, you can get a cab from Padum to Kargil as well. You can also board shared cabs from the villages in between, like Sankoo, Panikhar, Parkachik, or Rangdum.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Best way to travel to Zanskar Valley<\/span><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The answer to this question depends on several factors like budget, time in hand, etc. But I think it is safe to assume that the best way to travel to Zanskar is a self-owned vehicle. Public transport services here are severely limited and the fare of the taxis here is enough to burn a hole in your pocket.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you have your own vehicle, you are free to travel any way you want, anytime you want, take breaks as per your convenience, and travel at your own pace.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/rangdum-fort.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-32369 size-full\" title=\"zanskar\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/rangdum-fort.jpg\" alt=\"zanskar\" width=\"1000\" height=\"670\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/rangdum-fort.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/rangdum-fort-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/rangdum-fort-768x515.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/rangdum-fort-585x392.jpg 585w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/rangdum-fort-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Public Transport Services in Zanskar Valley &#8211; Conclusion<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>I hope the information above on public transport services in Zanskar valley was of help.
