Snow Leopard at Qing-zang Plateau

Rising into the thin, high-altitude air of Tibet, the Qing-zang Plateau, often referred to as the roof of the world, offers one of the most extraordinary backdrops for photographing the elusive Snow Leopard. This vast highland, defined by its immense open grasslands and arid steppe, gives photographers rare open sightlines across terrain where these cats are otherwise almost impossible to spot. November is the typical month for encounters here, when the plateau's stark, wide-open character is at its most revealing. Our Tibetan Wildlife of the Qing-Zang Plateau holiday is built around this remarkable setting, giving photographers the chance to work within one of the highest and most extensive elevated regions on Earth.
