Tso Kar
Located on the Rupshu Plateau in Southern Ladakh, Tso Kar is a breathtaking lake renowned for its size and depth. It is a unique lake, but unfortunately, is not well-featured on the Ladakh itineraries. There is a beauty about the lake which comes from its very difference.
Tso Kar is a heavily saline lake with weeds, nettles, and other lake plants growing within and a tendency to form salt crusts on the outside. Though it is not as large as the Pangong Tso or Tso Moriri, Tso Kar's strength lies in its serenity.
Since not many people visit the lake, those who do end up enjoying a greater level of natural beauty in a blessed solitude which the popularity of the two other lakes denies their visitors. Visiting Tso Kar is a wonderful experience while on your Leh Ladakh road trip, and if you want to know all about the various lake landscapes of Ladakh, a trip to Tso Kar is a must-do.
