I will be in Leh from June 11-June 19 along with my wife and 10-year old daughter.
Here is the tentative itinerary
Day 1 - Leh, stay at resort and relax
Day 2- Visit Alchi monastery,Likir Monastrey,Indus & Zanskar river Sangam, , Pathar Sahib Gurdwara and Magnetic Hil, stay at Leh hotel
Day 3 - Leh to Nubra,Deskit, Hunder Villages and camel Safari, stay at Hundar
Day 4 - NUbra to Leh, evening Leh market etc, Stay at Leh
Day 5- Leh to Pangong, stay at Pangong
Day 6 - Pangong to Leh vis Hmeis monastery, stay at Leh
Day 7 - Leh to Tso Moriri
Day 8 - Tso Moriri to Leh
Day 9 - fly back.
Let me know if the above itinerary looks good.
I can see that 6N are pretty much booked
2 days for Leh including acclimitization
2 days for Leh to Nubra and back
2 days for Leh to Pangong and back
There are some options for the other 2 days
1> Go to Tso Moriri as mentioned above
2> Spend one extra days in Nubra valley and do a day trip to Turtuk, and one day to relax in Leh, skip Tso Moriri
3> Spend 2 nights instead of one in Pangong, and additional day in Leh to relax Skip Tso Moriri
4>Drive to Lamayuru and spend one day in Ule, and one additional day in Leh, skip Tso Moriri
5>Drive directly from Pangong to Tso Moriri (if roads are open), one extra day in Leh to relax.
The main decision I need to take is should I go to Tso Moriri or not. Since I am traveling with family including kid, I am little concerned about the chances of AMS if I spend 2 nights in such high altitude. Also, I am not sure how different the experience in Tso Morii will be compared to Pangong as the pictures look pretty similar. I understand that Pangong is kind of crowded but I think it should be possible to find some camps which are secluded. Also, Pangong probably will have better facilities for accommodation and food. So, is it still worth going all the way to Tso Moriri?
If the answer is NO, what is the best option to spend the additional 2 days. I am interested about Turtuk but not sure what exactly I will be doing there.
