Itinerary
It is best to travel to both Moriri Tso as well as Tso kar. The lakes are best seen on a trip to Leh. Start early from Leh and after finishing Moriri Tso, come over to Tso kar for a quiet environment and some bird watching. From there, take the cab back to Leh again.
Tips
Carry an extra can of fuel because the nearest fuel station in any direction is in Leh or Keylong.
If you plan to stay overnight in one of the tents, then make sure you wear protective woollen clothes and carry an extra pair. It can get really chilly and also windy in the open grasslands.
There are no ATMs nearby so do not forget to carry cash
