About this

Visit Pangong Lake in Ladakh

Pangong Lake is a high-altitude saltwater lake in the Ladakh region of India, situated at approximately 4,350 meters above sea level near the border with China. The lake stretches about 134 kilometers in length, though only a portion lies within Indian territory. Its water changes color throughout the day, shifting between shades of blue and turquoise depending on light and weather conditions. The surrounding landscape consists of barren mountains and sparse vegetation, with limited infrastructure and seasonal accessibility. The area experiences extreme temperature variations and is home to migratory birds during warmer months.
