BEST ADVENTURE DESTINATION

Ladakh

A trip to Ladakh is guaranteed to be a wild ride. During the summers, adventure sports like archery and polo are commonly played in Leh. River rafting can be enjoyed in the waters of the Indus and Zanskar rivers. In the winter months, the Chadar Trek—which is undertaken on a frozen River Zanskar—is very popular, and ice hockey and ice climbing are increasingly popular attractions. Overnight camping has also gained popularity on the banks of the pristine Pangong Tso. leh.nic.in
