The journey
Discover your next journey.
This 6-day plan covers the essential Ladakh circuit in a short time, with the option to ride a Royal Enfield or travel by vehicle. Day one is kept free for rest so your body can adjust to the altitude, followed by Leh's sights – Shanti Stupa, Leh Palace, Magnetic Hill and the confluence of the Indus and Zanskar.
You then cross Khardung La into Nubra Valley for the Diskit Monastery and the sand dunes at Hunder. Instead of going back to Leh, the route follows the Shyok river to the brilliant blue Pangong Tso, before returning over Chang La on day five.
All inner line permits are taken care of. Price on request – contact us with your dates and preferred option (bike or SUV). Pickup and drop: Leh.
