Marmot Point is a popular tourist spot situated along the enchanting Pangong Tso in Ladakh, India. Renowned for its crystal-clear blue waters, Pangong Tso stretches across India and China, with Marmot Point being located on the Indian side. The area gets its name from the endemic and adorable Himalayan marmots that can be spotted by visitors in the vicinity. These creatures are known for their curious nature and often approach tourists, making for a delightful interaction. The point offers breathtaking panoramic views of the lake and its surrounding stark landscape, which is a mix of barren hills and the snow-capped Chang Chenmo range. The altitude of this location commands a high level of physical fitness due to lower oxygen levels.
