| Rangdum, Suru Valley |
| Location: Rangdum,
Ladakh |
| Rangdum is an elliptical expanded
plateau surrounded by colourful hills on the one
side and glacier encrusted rocky mountains on the
other. It is the most isolated part of the Suru
Valley. Situated 130 kms South-east of Kargil, it
falls midway between Kargil and Padum. Due to its
remoteness, the area's wild beauty is almost haunting,
while its isolation is near perfect even as the
unpaved Zanskar road traverses its length. |
