Pangong Lake

  • A long boomerang-shaped endorheic (landlocked) water body

  • It is a transborder lake spanning across eastern Ladakh and western Tibet

  • Around 40% of the lake is in Indian territory, 50% is in Tibet (China), and the remaining 10% is reportedly disputed between the two countries and serves as a de facto buffer zone.

Pangong Lake

Eastern Part:

  • Freshwater in character.

  • Fishes, crustaceans, ducks, moss, and other aquatic flora & fauna too, inhabit this region.

  • Important breeding region for a number of migratory birds during summers

Western Part:

  • Extremely saline in character.

  • No fishes or flora are observed in or near the lake, however, a few crustaceans can be seen in the water.


  • Chang Chenmo is the name of barren mountains situated at the northern bank of the lake which extends out into major spurs into the lake that are called fingers by the Army.
