118 km from Leh. This is the gateway, at an altitude of 3,144 m, to a surreal desert surrounded by peaks of eternal snow. From here, travellers reach Hunder, 7 km away. Five hundred years ago, the Diskit monastery was the first in the valley. Today, it is inhabited by around a hundred monks from the region. The village is made up of the new part to the north and the more authentic Old Diskit to the south. To get to Diskit from Leh, meet at the bus station at dawn once a week. It's best to book your ticket in advance. In summer, Hunder can be reached by camel.
