Ladakh is made up of two words – La meaning mountain pass and Dak meaning country. Ladakh is a cold desert in India, lying in the Great Himalayas, on the eastern side of Jammu and Kashmir. It is enclosed in the north by the Karakoram Range and in the south by the Zanskar mountains. Several rivers flow through Ladakh. The most important river is the Indus. The rivers form deep valleys and gorges. Several glaciers are found in Ladakh. The Gangri glacier is an example. The altitude in Ladakh varies from about 3000m in Kargil to more than 8000 m in the Karakoram.
