💡 Travel Tips
💰 Travel during shoulder season (September) to get better accommodation rates while still enjoying good weather; avoid peak July-August when prices spike by 40-50%
📅 June to September is ideal for visiting Turtuk, as high mountain passes remain open and weather is stable with clear skies. October can still be pleasant but temperatures drop rapidly, and from November onwards, heavy snowfall closes access routes until spring.
🛂 Indian citizens do not require a visa to visit Turtuk as it is within Indian territory. However, you must obtain an Inner Line Permit (ILP) from Ladakh administration before entering the Nubra Valley region.
