Ladakh, a place on earth which seems to have been both cursed and blessed by the creator. Cursed because the fruits of modernization and advanced communications have not reached there fully yet, and blessed for the same reason. It is a cold desert situated in northern India spotted with beautiful mountain passes, rivers, sand dunes, snow capped peaks and roads and magnanimous landscapes, which can make someone feel humble about their existence. It feels like mountains rule this land, and are arrogant about it, choosing to open or close paths in their wake as and when they like. It is a trip of a lifetime that will take you away from your life’s hustle and bustle and will show you a totally different face of earth. The long roads going through the spectacular valleys can make you think: “Do I really want to reach somewhere? I can ride along this path forever”

Things to keep in mind:
  • Ladakh is a high altitude place where you move from 11,500 feet to 18,300 feet above sea level.  Air is thin at these altitudes, especially at the mountain passes. If you have Asthma and breathing problems, it is advisable to carry portable oxygen cans with you. These are available at medical shops in Leh for around Rs. 500. You might also want to carry medicines for AMS (Acute Mountain Sickness), especially if you are flying to Leh and not taking the road route.
  • Prepaid phones don’t work in J&K. You might want to carry a postpaid SIM if you want to stay connected. But that depends: do you really want to?
  • Long distances have to be traversed in Ladakh (we rode around 600kms in 6 days). Bikes and taxis are the popular modes of transport. If you go with bikes, make sure the bike is serviced and is in a good condition. I’d advice you to go with 500cc bikes because you might feel the need for more power on those steep climbs and mountain passes. Bikes are available in Leh city on rent.
  • Start early in the day towards your destination. There is a possibility of vehicle breakdown and riding after sunset is totally not advisable
  • Drink lot of water to compensate for the less oxygen in air. Always keep some packed food with yourself while travelling. Chocolates might turn out to be a good energy snack there.
