Taglang la is one of the highest motarable mountain pass of India. It is at the elevation of 5328 metres. It is on the Zanskar Range of the Himalayas in the region of Ladakh in Jammu and Kashmir. It is second highest mountain pass in India. It lays on Leh-Manali highway. One can see hundreds of Buddhist prayer flags on this pass. The atmospheric oxygen level is very lower than that of the oxygen at sea level. This pass provides scenetic view as it sways away from main highway. The surrounding is full of vegetation and chilled air welcomes you. It is 111km away from leh. The route is very adventurous and thrilling. One can enjoy a lot here.
This route is open only for four months during the year. As there is very low temperature and excessive snow fall blocks this road during the winter. The temperature here is in minus and it is at higher altitude so the oxygen becomes thinner and many times there is problem in breathing.
