The spectacular landscape of the Ulley Valley is home to numerous Himalayan wildlife species, including the iconic snow leopard.
Located north of the Indus at the head of the Ulley Chhu valley, the small village of Ulley, in West Ladakh, sits at nearly 4,000 meters above sea level. The village and the surrounding Ulley Valley region have only recently been developed for snow leopard observation.
Other Himalayan wildlife includes the Siberian (Asiatic) ibex, the urial (a native wild sheep with long legs and relatively small horns), the Himalayan fox and the wolf. Notable birds include the chukar and Tibetan partridges, the lammergeier, the red-billed chough, as well as bearded vultures and Himalayan griffons.
