Tsomoriri went in the summer but the temperature was 3 degrees ❄️☃️

📍 Tso Moriri Lake – A mountain lake, one of Ladakh's most beautiful secrets

If you're looking for a quiet, peaceful, and breathtaking destination, Tso Moriri Lake is the answer.



🌊 A true natural wonder

Tso Moriri, also known locally as "Mori-ri Tso," is located at an altitude of approximately 4,522 meters above sea level, nestled amidst the Himalayas in the Changthang District of Ladakh.

What sets it apart from other lakes in Ladakh is:
✅ Its tranquility (almost uncrowded with tourists)
✅ Its pristine nature
✅ Its captivating scenery, including azure waters, meadows, and snow-capped mountains



🛣️ Getting there: A challenging trek, but worth every kilometer
• The journey from Leh takes approximately 7-8 hours
• The road is somewhat rough and lacks phone signal
• An Inner Line Permit is required due to its proximity to the India-China border

But once you get there… you'll immediately understand why this place is so "special."



📷 Must-Do Activities

✨ Sit quietly and gaze at the water amidst the mountains.
✨ Capture the surreal beauty of the sunrise and sunset.
✨ Stroll through the small village of Korzok, which sits on the edge of the lake.
✨ Spot rare birds like the Black-necked Crane.
✨ Camp or stay at a local guesthouse – a warm and homely experience.



⚠️ Things to Know Before You Go
• The location is high, with mild air. You'll need to acclimatize in Leh for at least 2-3 days before ascending.
• There are no fancy restaurants or facilities, so be sure to pack the necessary essentials.
• Nights are very cold, even in summer. Bring a warm coat.
• Traveling during winter (December–March) is not recommended, as snow can cover the trails.



🌟 Summary: Unspoiled Nature

Tso Moriri is one of Ladakh's untouched gems, a perfect place for those seeking a getaway from the hustle and bustle and a deeper connection with nature.

“There's not much to do here…but it has everything to offer.”

📌 If you have the chance, I'd like everyone to experience it for themselves at least once in their lives. 🌍
