Nubra Valley is a high-altitude desert valley located in the northernmost part of the Indian union territory of Ladakh. It is situated at an average altitude of 10,000 feet above sea level and is characterized by vast stretches of sand dunes, barren landscapes, and snow-capped mountains.
The valley is a popular tourist destination known for its scenic beauty, Buddhist monasteries, and adventure activities such as trekking, camping, and camel safaris. The most popular tourist attractions in the Nubra Valley include the Diskit Monastery, the Hunder Sand Dunes, the Yarab Tso Lake, and the Panamik Hot Springs.
The valley is accessible by road via the Khardung La Pass, which is one of the highest motorable roads in the world. The best time to visit Nubra Valley is from June to September, when the weather is relatively pleasant and the roads are open for travel.
