... via Chang La and the Wari to the Nubra
Km 0: Depart Leh
35 Km env: Karu (better to go or bus stop because the road through a vast military camp, with the circulation and heat is not very nice).
Km 42: crossing to the monastery Chemre (approx 1.5 km above the road)
Km 45: Sakti, a pretty village. From there, can go to Taktok The Wari and then join the Nubra (see below). For the Pangong Tso, turn right towards Kingral / Chang La. Housing
possible TakTok Monastery (3 or 4 bedrooms, approximately 4-5km of Sakti) and Sakti (Homestay). Paved road to TakTok.
Km 67: Kingral, checkpoint
Km 79: The Chang
Km? : Durbuk
Km 109: Tangtse
Km 181: Spangmik
In theory not allowed to exceed Spangmik in practice no bp to 5-6 km along the lake beyond the checkpoint.
It is possible to reach the Nubra since Taktok via Wari La which has just been tarred. This allows for a super loop Tso Pangong - Nubra with 3 collar around 5300 (Chang La, Wari La, Khardung La). No idea if the road is paved all the way, but after 2 riders Australians have done is really nice. 2 English crossed Panamik told me that the Wari La Pass was the hardest part of their trip (had that same circuit before us, coming from the Spiti). The day that Sophie wanted do, he really liked (snowed in altitude), lots of rock falls and landslides, they preferred the zapper. Must also keep good things for the next trip ...
