Lying approximately 400m lower than Leh, Nubra sports a much milder climate, which enables its inhabitants to cultivate more extensively, as compared to their counterparts in the main Indus valley. The highlights of this tour are the crossing of the Khardong La pass (5400 m), on the highest motorable roads in the world and a Bactriane camel safari.
