Overview

A road trip of about 700 km through Ladakh: Leh, Sham Valley, Nubra Valley, Turtuk and Pangong Tso. It is a 6 Nights / 7 Days group trip that starts and ends in Leh; it does not start from Delhi, so you make your own way to Leh. You can ride your own bike, ride a rented bike solo or as a pair, or travel in an SUV or tempo traveller. Plan to reach Leh at least one day before the trip starts so that you complete the 48 hours of acclimatisation the government SOPs ask for.

Day 1 is for arriving and acclimatising in Leh. Day 2 is a Sham Valley excursion to the Hall of Fame, Gurudwara Pathar Sahib, Magnetic Hill and the confluence of the Indus and Zanskar. Day 3 crosses Khardung La to Nubra Valley, with stops at Diskit Monastery and the Hunder sand dunes. Day 4 is a day trip to Turtuk and back. Day 5 runs from Nubra to Pangong Tso via Shyok for a night in camps by the lake, Day 6 returns to Leh over Chang La, and Day 7 is departure. Stays are in hotels, camps, cottages and homestays on triple sharing, with a backup vehicle, a mechanic, inner line permits and an oxygen cylinder along. Batches run from May to July. Prices start at ₹14,000 per person for the Own Bike option on triple sharing (5% GST extra).

If you choose not to arrive a day in advance, we can't be held responsible for any acclimatisation issues. Permits are arranged on the assumption that you arrived one day prior.
No active physical exertion on your first two days in Leh. Have a light meal on the day you arrive.
Drink at least 2 to 3 litres of water a day and avoid alcohol, smoking and sedatives.
