In Ladakh, you never know what surprise nature has in store for you. Pangong Lake, situated at a height of almost 4,350m, is the world’s highest saltwater lake. Its water, which seems to be dyed in blue, stand in stark contrast to the arid mountains surrounding it. Extending to almost 160km, one-third of the Pangong Lake lies in India and the other two-thirds in China.

Pangong Lake, one of the most famous lakes in Leh Ladakh, derives its name from the Tibetan word, “Pangong Tso”, which means “high grassland lake”. You could spend hours in contemplation here, and still not have enough of its beauty. Pangong Lake is also known to change colors, appearing blue, green and red at different times. If you have decided to go on a trip to Ladakh anytime soon, don’t forget to visit the Pangong Lake. The beauty which awaits you there cannot be described in words. It has to be seen, felt and absorbed within yourself.


Pangong Lake is not just a beauty to behold, but certain facts make it an even more interesting point of interest. We bet, you were not aware of some of them.

So, here you go with some mind-boggling facts about Pangong Lake.
Did you know the lake water changes its colours? True! Pangong Tso is popular for its changing colour ability. Its colour changes from shades of blue to green to red.

It is one of the highest altitude lakes in the world that is filled with saline water. It is located at an altitude of 4350 m above the sea level. However, even though it is a saline water lake, Pangong Tso freezes completely during winters.

It is located in a disputed territory. Approximately 60 per cent of the lake, in terms of length, lies in China, and the eastern end of Pangong Tso lies in Tibet.
The brackish water of this region has very low micro-vegetation. There, in the lake, you won’t find any aquatic life or fish, except crustaceans.

It is a salt-water lake and is a kind of endorheic basin, which implies that it retains its water and does not allow outflow of its water to other external water bodies, such as oceans and rivers.

Tourists are allowed to visit the lake till Spangmik village because of the lake’s proximity to Sino-India border.
The lake, at its broadest point, is around 5 km in wide. In fact, the total length of the lake is 134 km.
