To the surprise of many people who are aware of camel Safari in the hot deserts
of Rajasthan only, will be surprised to know that camel safari is carried out in
the cold deserts of Ladakh also. Tourists can enjoy the soft adventure of camel
safari in Ladakh in the months of July, August and September.
As one explores the
rugged mountain terrain on a camel back, one feels far removed from the earth. A
real memorable experience. An experience that one won't be
able to forget whole
of life. Reason being that beside the savage and extreme image of this cold desert
lies the adventure of exploring the beahtiful . . landscape and passage through
remote villages. How about camping in tents, experience spending the night under
the stars. However,one needs to learn the balancing act and get used to the movements
of camel, while one is on a camel ride. One can explore the charming villages of
Nubra on camel back. Nubra Valley is a fascinating place. Highly contrastive, the
landscape would immediately change from fertile green apricot fields to a dry Saharan
Desert-like terrain with snow-capped peaks in the distance. In Nubra one can find
a small population of the shaggy double-humped Bactrian camels, which in the old
days were used as pack animals on the Central Asian trade route. During the past
50 years, they have been bred for
transport purposes in
Nubra. Today visitors to
Nubra can use these animals for going on camel safaris. The main population centers
are Deskit and Hunder. Camel Safari provides a commanding view of the valleys, villages
and Buddhist Gompas. Tourists can inspect the Panamic village- the last leg of Camel
Safari and visit hot springs locally reputed to have therapeutic qualities.
