    Since the Zanskar Pass is still open until early October, you’ll get the best high altitude views by heading north from Rangdum to Suru first. After the short 10 km stretch, take the main road up to the pass, then turn south toward Kargil. The descent is gentle, making the drive to the memorial smoother. If you need a place to stay near the memorial, Hotel The Haven Kargil is a solid option.
