Zanskar offers one of the most scenic routes and breathtaking valley views in the whole of ladakh. The roads connecting zanskar to kargil,leh or manali are filled with the most adventurous and adrenaline pumping off roads or dirt road drives. It will challenge you mentally and physically as well but it will then leave a mark in your journey that you will cherish throughout your life.
In between the magistic zanskar valley, lies a peaceful village called padum which is not the economic hub of zansakr.
