Pangong Range Things to Do Tips by MalenaN

Chang La

When you go from Leh to Pangong Lake you will go over Chang La, which is a high pass on 5360 metres. Chang La is said to be the third highest motorable pass in the world, but as the Chinese are building roads over several high passes I’m not sure this is true anymore. It is at least one of the highest motorable passes in the world.

At Chang La the Indian army has got first aid facilities and they also serves tea for free.

There is also a temple at Chang La. This temple is dedicated to the sadhu Changla Baba and it is the sadhu the pass is named after.
