THE PANGONG LAKE : This route takes the visitor past the picturesque
villages of Shey and Thiksey, and turns off the Indus valley by the side
valley of Chemrey and Sakti. The Ladakh range is crossed by the Chang-la
(18,000 feet / 5,475 M) which despite its great elevation is one of the
easier passes, remaining open for much of the year even in winter, apart
from periods of actual snowfall. Tangse, just beyond the foot of the
pass, has an ancient temple.
But the main attraction of this circuit is the Pangong Lake, situated at
14,000 feet (4,267 M). A long narrow basin of inland drainage, hardly
six to seven kilometers at its widest point to which foreigners are
permitted, is only some seven km along the southern shore from the head
of the lake, but it affords spectacular views of the mountains of the
Changchenmo range to the north, their reflection shimmering in the
ever-changing blues and greens of the lakes brackish water. Above
Spangmik are the glacier and snow-capped peaks of the Pangong range
