    Starting from Rangdum, head north to Suru Valley first the 10 km stretch already shows the alpine scenery. From there take the main road up to the Zanskar pass; that 80 km leg gives the high altitude views you’re after. After Zanskar, turn south back toward Kargil the memorial is about 120 km away. This sequence avoids back tracking and keeps most of the drive downhill after the pass. If you need a place to stay near the memorial, Hotel The Haven Kargil is a solid option.
