Tourists can just bow down and feel blessed at having witnessed this high altitude mountain lake. Situated at a height of 4,500 m in Ladakh which is around 250 km from Leh and needs a minimum of 8 hours but all the effort is well worth the reward.

Tso Moriri is not frequented by too many tourists. But that fact should not dampen your spirits if you really want to visit a paradise of sorts.

Mighty mountains flanked by snow capped peaks and lush green fields in the foreground and deep blue water stretching right up to the horizon, Tso Moriri offers it all.

Isolated and untouched, unending vastness and the sheer raw beauty all around is enough to mesmerize the visitors. The transparent water shows what lies underneath and this is something unseen in India. So much so that you may want to enter the lake and explore. But near freezing point, the water is so chilled you may not dare and it is not advisable too.
