Day 5 of Raid de Himalaya started from Rangdum, at the head of the Suru Valley in Ladakh, passed over the Pensi La Pass went to Padum, the headquarter of Zanskar and ended at Rangdum. The leg began near colourful tents at the Rangdum camp, with vehicles being flagged off early morning one by one.
Rangdum is the last inhabited region of the Suru Valley, known for the Buddhist monastery Rangdum Gonpa. The region is connected by a link road to NH 1 at Kargil. During October, when the Raid de Himalaya is organised the minimum temperatures in Rangdum go as low as -16 but in 2015, the weather conditions remained surprisingly good and the temperatures didn't plummet much.
