The Epic Pangong Lake - 4350 Meter
It was 2017 when finally, I was on Pangong lake. I was thinking so much about Pangong lake and after attending the Hell Ultra 480 kms, I got few days to visit the Chumathang valley. It is quite viral among tourists, it is not only Indian tourist visit here but also foreign tourists also visit here. While standing next to Pangong it felt like you are on some other planet.
It is a High Grassland Lake, is and endothermic lake in the Trans Himalayas. Lake is situated on 4350 meters. Pangong is 134 km long and extends from India to China. You won’t believe that the 60% of the length of the lake lies in China. It got frozen in winter time, few of my friends cycled there in peak winters where the temperature was -36 degrees. The maximum depth of lake is around 100 meters.
Tourists need to get inner line permit to visit there, after getting permit from Leh administrative office tourist leaves from Leh and crosses Chang la (5353m).
