From apricot orchards to sulphur springs, and sand dunes to border hamlets—Nubra’s loop isn’t just a journey, it’s a living story of resilience and heritage.
Often called the “Orchard of Ladakh”, the Nubra Valley Loop connects some of the most diverse and captivating villages in northern Ladakh—Sumoor, Turtuk, Hundar, Bogdang, and Panamik. But beyond scenic beauty, these villages are home to vibrant SHGs, artisan clusters, and micro-enterprises led by women, farmers, and local youth. This circuit offers not only dramatic landscapes but also deeply immersive community experiences.
Sumoor is one of the oldest settlements in Nubra, dotted with lush farms and a beautiful monastery perched on a hill.
The last accessible village before the Pakistan border, Turtuk is rich in Balti culture, language, and architecture.
Hundar is famous for its high-altitude cold desert, but its SHG ecosystem is just as fascinating.
