Hi , Of course you can do river rafting at the Confluence of the two rivers . Rafts are there . Levels 1 &2 possible. Must know swimming . The place is around an hours drive from Leh. And it's very cold and windy .

Sapna i would suggest complete rest, ie not even having a bath or climbing stairs the day you arrive. You will feel nauseating and a dull headache the entire day. So pls rest on the 1st day...then only will you enjoy the rest of your trip. We a family of 4 with 2 teenage sons took 1 Diamox everyday.And have lots of water.

Nubra and pangong are a must. To me monasteries are all same and one seen all see. If you are little bit of a dare devil go for rafting at zanskar River. Pl take warm clothes. Take homeopathic medicine coca6 and have six globules in the morning and evening. This is for your breathing and high mountain sickness

This time of the year Leh would be freezing cold - therefore you must carry good jackets, warm clothes, gloves etc to keep yourself warm. Also since Leh is a high altitude place, you should carry medicines like Diamox tablets to help you get rid of mountain sickness. Following is the sightseeing itenary which I followed during my trip: Day 1: Arrival at Leh, Airport Rest of day at leisure for acclimatization. Overnight at Leh Day 2: Visit Spituk Gompa, Hall of Fame, Shanti Stupa, Sankar Gompa, Leh Palace, Namgyal Gompa. Overnight at Leh Day 3 : Gurdwara Pather Sahib, Magnetic hill, Indus & Zanskar confluence, Basgo Monastery, Likir Monastery, Alchi Monastery. Overnight at Leh Day 4 : Travel to Nubra Valley covering Khardungla Pass, Samstanling Monastery, Sumur sand des. Overnight at Nubra Day 5: Travel back to Leh covering Hunder sand dunes, Hunder Monastery, Diskit Monastery, Lachung temple. Overnight at Leh Day 6 : Sindhu Ghat, Shey Monastery, Thikse Monastery, Stakna Monastery, Changla Pass, Pan gong Lake. Overnight at Pangong Day 7: Travel back to Leh covering Hemis Monastery, Matho Monastery, Stok Palace. Overnight at Leh Day 8: Departure from Leh Airport.

it should be

The altitude of the confluence is lower than Leh. The road to the spot is good. If you have acclimatised yourself at Leh for a day, there won't be any problem.

Hall of fame is temporarily close for renovation....rest can be covered in one day.........Magnetic hill shall not take much time once there...........Rafting is available at confluence......Safety looks fine.......cost shall be in the range of 1500 INR.......
