Over Khardung La and down into a valley of sand dunes, Diskit monastery and double-humped camels at Hunder. Stay a night; the pass is harder when you're tired.

Mixed conditions
Paved to South Pullu, then broken and muddy in patches up to Khardung La and down to North Pullu, with snowmelt on the road on sunny afternoons. The valley roads are good. Pay the Ladakh environment fee online first.
