Recreation

Outdoor recreation in Nubra takes advantage of the valley's vast, surreal landscapes. * **Camel Safaris**: Riding the double-humped Bactrian camels—descendants of animals left behind by Silk Road traders—across the Hunder sand dunes is the valley's most iconic activity. * **ATV Rides**: Off-roading on all-terrain vehicles is a popular, fast-paced attraction in the expansive Hunder dunes. * **Trekking**: Popular routes include the demanding trek from Phyang to Hunder over the Lasermo La pass. * **Village Walks & Stargazing**: The complete lack of light pollution makes Nubra an exceptional destination for astronomy, while walking through traditional farming villages like Sumur and Turtuk offers immersive cultural experiences.
