Tourists usually go into the Nubra Valley for two-nights, staying in, or around, Sumur. There is an unending amount of camp sites, guesthouses and home stays to choose from; just a few names are shown in the video. Nubra is a restricted area because of the Siachen Glacier in this valley where India and Pakistan have been fighting at an altitude of over 18,000 feet for years; you need a permit, which only allows travel as far as Hunder and Panamik for a maximum of seven days.

Steve and I had a choice of rooms when we arrived in the early afternoon with the prime three rooms, overlooking the gorgeous fields, already taken. Donde, our Nepali cook traveled with us to the Nubra Valley but Namgyal Guesthouse does serve meals.

. The Sasser Pass and the famous Karakoram Pass lie to the northwest of the valley and connect Nubra with Xinjiang. Previously there was much trade passing through the area with East Turkestan and Central Asia.
