The Miyar Nullah lies beyond the first main range of the Himalayas, but it is considerably less arid than Zanskar and Ladakh further north, in fact Miyar Nullah has significant forests of Junipers macrocode, gooseberry and currant bushes, and banks of vivid pink Rosa webbiana which scent the air.

The valley lies at an elevation of 9000-12000 (and higher up beyond our last camp). In an average year at this altitude during the first half of July the summer flora, such as Mecanopsis, aquilegia and delphinium, and two of three days, are free for those who wish to explore up side valleys to the alpine plants and spring flowers emerging on the edge of the glaciers.

This is a Buddhist country and you are far from every life. You visit a very lovely and seldom visited valley. Architecturally, the village house are built of stone and plastered with mud, with flat roof tops. They are very attractive and the surroundings too are a delight to the eye.
