Buddy, it will be damn cold to ride up there and very risky as well especially at high passes because of presence of snow/ice on roads. Mostly army do not allow bikers on high passes during winters.
Last October we visited leh by flight. I have an acute breathing problem. But we were surprised that I didn't faced any such problems. Maybe this tour was my childhood dream. Only in khardung la I had a headache for a few minutes. It was such a beautiful journey , I can't explain. And before my tour I watched all your videos.
All the best.. this year Tempo Traveler Union has come up with shared cost pricing where they will split the tempo traveler charges amount travelers. So you may check at taxi union too how you can get shared tempo traveler

@@discoverwithdheeraj Hi, just wanted to ask a few things I am trying to find out about laser la glacier and hill station but can't seem to find any images or videos about it. How is the place and is it worth visiting if you have limited time. In 9 days(from leh) i am trying to fit drass and leh Ladakh region. Can drass be done in two days, including going and coming back to leh.
I am sorry but I am not sure about the Laser La Glacier details. However, Dras trip can be done in 2 days from Leh. There should not be a problem in that because the roads are very good.

Regards, John
Hey John, I am sorry, I got late in replying. Since it was a long comment couldn't reply from phone :) Here are my inputs 1. You should visit Turtuk on Day 4. It will make it balanced. 2. You may skip Sumur and Panamik. There isn't much that you may not already have seen and as you said you would like to keep it relaxed better spend all that time in Turtuk, Hunder and Diskit. 3. Well, since you are traveling in April, it is going to be very very cold at Pangong Lake with lake being partially frozen. I will say you be better skipping the Day 8 there. You should rather head back to Leh on Day 8 to save a day. You can visit monasteries then next day at easy pace or just relax in Leh more if you want to visit the monasteries on the way back from Pangong lake. There isn't much of sightseeing at Pangong lake, just the lake and roam around the villages. 4. I answered above in 3. Either dedicate a day skipping one extra day in Pangong or do them on the way back only. I hope this helps. Feel free to let me know more questions you may have.
@@discoverwithdheeraj hello D, Thank you for your earlier reply. Based on your vital inputs, we are changing our 10 nights itinerary, starting in first week of April. We want to stay in scenic locales... Want to avoid every day check-ins / Check-outs... Overall less hectic trip. We'll be skipping Sumur -Panamik as you suggested. We r planning to avoid Tso Moriri as it will be much colder than Pangon and as you advised in one of your vlog. Please have a look and tell us your thoughts on our revised Plans. Your opinion matters. Plan A: 2 nights in Uleytokpo > 2 nights in Turtuk > 2 nights in Hunder > 2 nights in Pangon > 2 nights in Leh Plan B: 3 nights in Uleytokpo > 3 nights in Turtuk OR 3 nights in Hunder > 2 nights in Pangon > 2 nights in Leh Whether to go with Plan A or Plan B? If its Plan B then 3 night in Turtuk or Hunder? We find ourselves full of doubt. Thanks for taking the time. Regards, John
Well, on Day 2 in this itinerary of video you can go and visit Lamayuru, stay there and Sham Valley can be done on Day 3 while coming back from Lamayuru to Leh. Rest follow the same itinerary as told in the video
Hi first of all,very informative video. Second i want to ask i am planning for 10days in leh in april 4-14th. Any trip planner which offers bikes as well as a maintenance car along contact would be helpful to me. Also would this a food time to visit?
thank you so much, happy you found it informational.

Gurmat is a dear friend, a reliable and trustworthy guy based out in Leh.
We are planing to go 6 days in Kashmir from Delhi and than 6 days to Leh Ladhak again by flight in July , pls advice about AMS and all other tips you can give. We are planning 6 days in Srinagar, another 6 days in Leh Ladhak and 2 days in Delhi and back ro Mumbai after 2 weeks break. Need advice. Family of 4.
Best will be to take road trip to Leh from Srinagar instead of flying. You will get better acclimatization than flying directly. You need to stay over 2000-2500 mtrs to get your body acclimatize. So better option is to take night halt at Kargil and then by road to Leh next day
@@discoverwithdheeraj Thank you. What i meant to ask is in case my bike has a mechanical issue and does not start at all, so in this case if I'm with a back up provided team then I'm safe since if bike not repaired it will be toed to the near by workshop. If I'm riding without such support then will i get any support there??? How to manage.
Yes, in such a case if you can afford for the mechanic and spare vehicle services then you can take it. Main thing is that if you have a group of 5-6 riders then the cost makes sense else it becomes very costly.
Hello Sir, I am planning to visit September 2nd week. My itinerary will include khardung la pass, pangong, Tso mori, tso kar, Hanley. And exit through Manali to visit apple orchard on the way if there’s any😆. Please recommend it suggest the trip plan for 12 days or 13

Thank you we the content on this page is very well explained, we had one question is mid may a good time to plan Ladakh trip, will there be any risk in terms of bad weather conditions that reduce chances to visit Pangong tso lake ?
Your this video made watch many more video of yours and thats really great. I need some input from you, i am planning trip from 11-16 by early morning flight, i can basically book leh club mahindra and for rest i am mot sure how to plan and where to stay. Please help with best possible itenary in these days. No child only me and my wife are travelling.
Day 1 Leh rest and acclimate Day 2 Leh rest and local sightseeing Day 3 Visit nubra valley and stay at Diskit or Hunder Day 4 go over towards Pangonf and stay at Tangtse 34 km before lake Day 5 visit the lake in morning and come back to Leh by evening Day 6 fly back home
If you are flying to Leh, sleeping for 2 nights and then 3rd night at Lamayuru, it is fine in general. Just follow the acclimatization tips from my video.
Thanks quick reply , yes I'm flying direct ccu to Leh we are stay 2 days at Leh after that I'm move to moonlad after that we have planned to go hunder then Tso Pangong and Tso moriri. Thanks again❤
Hi Dheeraj i have seen your video but i want to go with my family by car in may mid. pls suggest me the route and best itinerary , and from where i can book rooms also
hi sir, i wanted to visit ladakh in april first week i want to cover the pangong circuit and hanle with umling la can you pls tell me if its possible for a overnight stay in pangong and hanle?
Pangong is more or less frozen in first week of April, also surety of Hanle to Umling La Pass road open or not in April is not 100%. Sometimes due to snow the road is closed. Also, April is more or less Winter conditions in Ladakh, I hope you are OK with it?
Dhiraj ji namskar, is there any guidance for me where I am coming Srinagar by flight and then start my tour of ladakh 9-10 days and on 11 th fly back from leh airport?
Well, take rest in Srinagar when you arrive, explore locally. Then next day travel to Kargil, stay overnight and then travel to Leh covering Sham Valley. Check the video below from Day 3 onwards. You can follow the video for rest of the days but instead of exiting from Tso Moriri to Manali, come back to Leh and fly out Best Ladakh Road Trip Itinerary in 12 Days | 2023 Leh Ladakh Trip by Road Plan | Dheeraj Sharma ruclips.net/video/4Se3aQfRovw/видео.html
Well, if you follow the itinerary of 9 days in the video where I talk about adding Tso Moriri lake in the plan that is where you can do Puga when returning from Tso Moriri lake towards Tso Kar lake.
bhai first two weeks of May tak ki umeed lag rahi hai khulne ki aur tourists k bhi allow hone ki.. generally to khull jaldi jaata hai par highway tourist ko allow nahin karte safe na hone ki wajah se early dino mein

Wanted to do a one-way road/ air trip. Would you suggest driving from Srinagar-leh and flying back from leh or flying to leh and driving back from leh-manali?
Best ways as per acclimatization is going from srinagar to Leh by road and then flying out. However, if you really wish to do Manali Leh Highway then it is better to fly to Leh, acclimatize, do Ladakh sightseeing and then travel Leh to Manali by road.

Good morning Dheeraj ji, thank you for the wonderful trip advice on Leh- Ladakh. We two, husband/ wife duo from Nagpur Maharashtra are planning a road trip by own 4x4 off road vehicle in 2024 season Kindly guide us on the same. Please note that I am 66 years and my wife 63 years both in robust health with the help of regular yoga practice. We have enough time ( can spent up to one month for the trip) Thank you in advance
Hello sir, I will highly recommend that you start with below three videos Best Ladakh Road Trip Itinerary in 12 Days | 2023 Leh Ladakh Trip by Road Plan | Dheeraj Sharma ruclips.net/video/4Se3aQfRovw/видео.html Best Time to visit Leh Ladakh 2023 | Best Month to visit Ladakh | Best Time for Ladakh Trip Bike Car ruclips.net/video/tUAb9m31ue0/видео.html 12 Tips to Prevent AMS | Acute Mountain Sickness in Ladakh - Spiti - Zanskar | Mountain Sickness ruclips.net/video/8XijLqr6O0Y/видео.html
Hello sir, it would be great to have your expert view on the below itinerary for upcoming independence day weekend. Day 1: Land at Leh, local sightseeing stay at Leh Day 2: Leh to Kargil (war mueseum, magnetic hill, indus zanskar confluence on the way). Stay at Kargil. Day 3: Kargil to Leh, on the way sightseeing. Stay at Leh. Day 4: Leh to Nubra Valley (via khardung la). Stay at Diskit, Nubra valley Day 5: Nubra to Pangong lake, stay at Pangong camp Day 6: Pangong to Leh, stay at Leh Day 7: Fly back to Delhi.
Give the days in hand it is OK.. Not sure if you want to go to all the way to Kargil and come back as most of the sightseeing is in Sham Valley which can be done as a day trip unless you want to visit Lamayuru. The day saved can be used to visit Turtuk day trip when you are in Nubra Valley
Plz clarify me qouestion is from where we can start our bike trip ?? And then can we travel with wife ?? And then can we do circuit that from srinagar to leh ladakh den ending leh manali road.
Well it will be very much inconvenient as you have to rent bike at multiple places. Outside rented bikes are not allowed for sightseeing in Ladakh. Better travel to Leh using other modes of travel and then rent bike in Leh for local ladakh sightseeing
Usually that is what happens but then last year the bike unions had issues and they said Sarchu will be the point where bikes cannot cross. Like Manali rental bike cannot go beyond Sarchu and Leh rental bikes cannot go beyond sarchu
Thank you so much Dheeraj Sir. Thank you so much for such a detailed guidance Sir. May I ask if obese people say for example weight between 80 to 90 kilos can travel to Leh. Does it cause complications due to low oxygen levels over there Sir?
Maria, I am not a medical expert on it but I think as long as you are following the acclimatization tips (Check video: ruclips.net/video/8XijLqr6O0Y/видео.html) then you should be OK. However, plz DO NOT treat it as medical advice and you MUST consult your doctor by telling the condition to them and telling that you will be traveling to High altitude places. So, ask them for proper medical advice there.
AMS problem can happen anytime to anyone.. Month or season does not play big role but yes traveling in season time always help because body do not need to worry fighting cold conditions. So, July will help you better acclimatize but you should follow the tips of acclimatization. Check my video: ruclips.net/video/8XijLqr6O0Y/видео.html
You have said that depending on health situation at Nubra, we should think of proceeding or not proceeding to Pangong. However, hotels are already prebooked at one location with full payment. How to handle this?
It is tough to handle such a situation when bookings are done. However, safety and health should always come first especailly in the remote land/areas of Leh Ladakh where real help is distant away, mostly in Leh.
Hi Dheeraj, I am travelling to Leh September 2023 1st half with my sister and parents (both senior citizens). We are planning to follow this same itinerary from 9th to 16th after which we're travelling to Srinagar for a week long Kashmir tour. Could you please tell us about the road conditions there? I'm planning to book a private cab and would like to get an estimate of the cab fares too if possible.
Hi Pallavi, that time in September is a very good time to travel up there in Ladakh.. less tourist, cool weather. Just carry layered clothing as lakes and passes start to get cold. Roads are in mostly best shape during the entire season in September. For taxi rates estimate, please check this video of mine: ruclips.net/video/Bb34IY3SNoM/видео.html You can watch till the end where I have explained the routes including this itinerary as well for estimate.
River/Water crossings are very occassional now. If it is heavily snowing in lower hills, then only such a case be there else the driect route from Nubra/Hunder to Pangong is very much the normal route for tourists.
Sir we r planning in first week of October in Leh Ladakh want to know about facilities of restroom on the way actually I m diabetic so want to know wt precautions I have to take pls suggest trip by flight
Well, there are some restrooms made but mostly very limited on the route. I will say try to use at pit stops like main places which are there in Ladakh. As soon as you see some market/town along the road, you should inquire about it. Only very few places have public restrooms installed and long distances you will not get anything mostly. So make use of most of the places where there are restaurants.

Hi Dheeraj, can't thank you enough for this. So well articulated ❤ I'm planning a kind of hybrid tour i.e. Srinagar to Leh by road and fly back from Leh. I can spend 7 days entirely between reaching Leh and exit from it. Can I do the local sight seeing after completing Pangong etc. We'll be somewhat acclimatised between Srinagar and Leh and will use the local sightseeing day for a bit of rest !
Yes, if you are traveling by road to Leh from Srinagar. Then after reaching Leh, next day in Leh you can basically do local sightseeing in Leh. Also after coming back from Pangong as well you can do it. What is the itinerary you are following? Share your draft here and I will recommend edits if required.
@@discoverwithdheeraj Day 1-2 : Srinagar to Leh Day 3 : Leh to Nubra via Khardung La. Stay in Hunder Day 4: Hunder to Pangong Day 5: Pangong to Leh Day 6: Local city sightseeing and rest Day 7-8 : Tso Moriri if all as per schedule. If needed, will do only Sham valley and keep the other day as back up. Day 9 : Return
@tathagatapal alternative you can also do Srinagar Kargil Kargil Sham Valley Leh Leh local sightseeing Leh to Nubra Nubra to Pangong Pangong to Hanle Hanle to Tso Moriri Tso Moriri to Leh Fly back

Hi Dheeraj, We are travelling to Leh via flight from 5th May to 14th May. We want to add Tsomoriri in our trip. We are travelling with Kid of 8 yr. Can you please advise should we go to tsomoriri from Pangong or should we go back and then cover from Leh? Also if stay options will be available in Tso moriri at that time as online not getting any stay option to book in karzok.
Stay options will be limited only to homestays as camps would not be setup. You can travel to Tso Moriri from Pangong. Please bear in mind that both the lakes will be pretty cold, so go prepared
We couple planned to visit leh in mid September 24, will reach leh by air. Shall we pre-book group tour in advance or book from local agency once we reach there ? Any suggestions for local budget group tour operator.

Very informative video👍🏻 planning to go in june last week.. hopefully it doesn’t rain at that time.. also the cab drivers no which you mentioned.. can we book them for our whole trip?
Sir, as per my itinerary.... I will stay one night each at pangong and tso moriri lake .... So, if i reach the place in the evening.. can i book the tent/cottage stay immediately or should i need to book in advance??? Similarly, on my way to umling la pass, i need to stay one night at hanle... So can you prefer any cottage/homestay at hanle?? I've watched your "routes to umling la from hanle" video and still as a beginner i would like to know which is the best and shortest route to umling la from hanle without any checkpoint ( the main reason, iam traveling to leh is to reach umling la at any cost) please help with these..
Bhai depend karta hai kaunse season mein ja rahe ho.. agar abhi jaa rahe ho to main bolunga ku pe-book karoge to theek hai but agar July mein ja rahe ho to on spot par bhi mil jaayega aapko kuch na kuch.. baaki Hanle mein stay k liye mera ye video dekhein aap: ruclips.net/video/JF6cM_yx3-k/видео.html
Hi Dheeraj, thank you sharing the detailed itinerary. I have a trip planned for mid April by flight and I want to go to Umling la pass, so could you please share details about this? Like how to go or if there’s any permit needed?
Well in that case you need to 1-2 days, one to Visit Hanle from and then one in Hanle to visit Umling La. by leaving early from Hanle you can visit Umling la, come down back to Hanle and then go over to Tso Moriri lake the same day. This will save a day for you. No permits are needed for Hanle or UmlingLa pass anymore just the environment fee that you will pay
@@discoverwithdheeraj great thank you so much for your reply and the detailed information. I also went through your blog on Umling la but couldn’t get accurate information based on the current conditions there at the moment. I have a couple of questions if you could answer them plenty. 1. Based on the itinerary shared by you, I will be visiting Pangong and I read in your blog that Hanle is about 170 KMs from Pangong, so would it be better to reach Hanle directly from Pangong and then come down to Tso moriri next day and then back to Leh city? Or would it be better to visit Hanle directly from Leh on the 3rd day of trip and then Pangong then Hunder? In my opinion, the following circuit should work: Hunder-> Pangong-> Hanle-> Tso Moriri-> Leh. Please let me know. 2. Will there by any restrictions to go to Umling La by Indian Army?
Bhai, do not do the circuit in opposite direction. Plz choose the direction that you wrote above that is leh to Nubra to pangong to Hanle then start early from Hanle, visit Umling La and reach Tso Moriri by evening that day. Also for Umling La, if you checked my old English video then I will say plz check the latest Travel Guide cum Chat video I made for Umling La pass here Umling La Pass 2023 Travel Guide - Umling La Pass Permit -Umling La Bike Ride Highest Motorable Pass ruclips.net/video/_7Lv5prOTDk/видео.html It should clear all you doubts for it. No permit or special permit needed from army to visit Umling La pass as per last year at least.
@@discoverwithdheeraj thank you so much bhai. You really helped me on creating a perfect itinerary for this year’s Ladakh circuit. I really appreciate your information and the work you are doing. You will be on top very soon. Keep up the good work. Gonna watch the above shared video. Thanks a lot. ♥️🙏🏻
Yes that certainly helps a lot.. keep following tips mentioned in Acute Mountain Sickness in Ladakh | Prevent Altitude Sickness / Mountain Sickness in Ladakh - Spiti ruclips.net/video/8XijLqr6O0Y/видео.html
yes possible in October but just travel on highway after seeing weather update. If it predicts snow on Zojila then avoid else can travel. It will get cold though in Ladakh in October.
Hey Dheeraj, Great insights about the Leh trip. It eased our plan to visit. We are actually planning to visit this December during the Christmas-New Year week. 1. Is it worth visiting during that time? 2. Will there be too much of a crowd? 3. Do we get to see snowfall at that time? If you suggest us to go based on the above pointers, I shall prepare an itinerary based on your inputs and videos. Thanks a tonne! 🙂

Please let me know if biking is possible in Dec Jan Feb (peak winter) if rented bike is arranged...?! Do share the contacts if you have it
Buddy, it will be damn cold to ride up there and very risky as well especially at high passes because of presence of snow/ice on roads. Mostly army do not allow bikers on high passes during winters.
Which mobile network is available in ladakh? Can I get a SIM card connection in leh?
@@sandipanbhattacharjee8599 only postpaid sim can be used
Is it good to go to Leh by Flight after spending 6 days in Kashmir Will AMS be less
Last October we visited leh by flight. I have an acute breathing problem. But we were surprised that I didn't faced any such problems. Maybe this tour was my childhood dream. Only in khardung la I had a headache for a few minutes. It was such a beautiful journey , I can't explain. And before my tour I watched all your videos.
Glad to know you had a wonderful trip
What about the snow in October? We are planning to visit in October. Kindly reply.

Hi, just wanted to ask a few things
I am trying to find out about laser la glacier and hill station but can't seem to find any images or videos about it. How is the place and is it worth visiting if you have limited time. In 9 days(from leh) i am trying to fit drass and leh Ladakh region.
Can drass be done in two days, including going and coming back to leh.
I am sorry but I am not sure about the Laser La Glacier details. However, Dras trip can be done in 2 days from Leh. There should not be a problem in that because the roads are very good.
@@discoverwithdheeraj
Thanks for replying.
Unfortunately Hardly any material available for laser la.
Very informative, organised and up to the mark video
Thank you, I am happy to know you liked it a lot.
Hey D,

Pls have a look at our tentative itinerary and help us fine tune it. Please answer few questions that we have for you. And please give your opinion / suggestions.

Q5. Your suggestions / openion pls.
Thank you for reading.
Regards,

Hey John,
I am sorry, I got late in replying. Since it was a long comment couldn't reply from phone :)
Here are my inputs
1. You should visit Turtuk on Day 4. It will make it balanced.
2. You may skip Sumur and Panamik. There isn't much that you may not already have seen and as you said you would like to keep it relaxed better spend all that time in Turtuk, Hunder and Diskit.
3. Well, since you are traveling in April, it is going to be very very cold at Pangong Lake with lake being partially frozen. I will say you be better skipping the Day 8 there. You should rather head back to Leh on Day 8 to save a day. You can visit monasteries then next day at easy pace or just relax in Leh more if you want to visit the monasteries on the way back from Pangong lake. There isn't much of sightseeing at Pangong lake, just the lake and roam around the villages.
4. I answered above in 3. Either dedicate a day skipping one extra day in Pangong or do them on the way back only.
I hope this helps. Feel free to let me know more questions you may have.
@@discoverwithdheeraj
hello D,
Thank you for your earlier reply.
Based on your vital inputs, we are changing our 10 nights itinerary, starting in first week of April. We want to stay in scenic locales... Want to avoid every day check-ins / Check-outs... Overall less hectic trip. We'll be skipping Sumur -Panamik as you suggested. We r planning to avoid Tso Moriri as it will be much colder than Pangon and as you advised in one of your vlog. Please have a look and tell us your thoughts on our revised Plans. Your opinion matters.
Plan A:
2 nights in Uleytokpo > 2 nights in Turtuk > 2 nights in Hunder > 2 nights in Pangon > 2 nights in Leh
Plan B:
3 nights in Uleytokpo > 3 nights in Turtuk OR 3 nights in Hunder > 2 nights in Pangon > 2 nights in Leh
Whether to go with Plan A or Plan B? If its Plan B then 3 night in Turtuk or Hunder? We find ourselves full of doubt.
Thanks for taking the time.
Regards,
John
John, I will go with Plan A as it will ease out the journey and spread it evenly across
@@JohnLennon-ff1bu hey, have you gone through the trip(plan a)? If yes, what's your experience and how much did the whole trip cost you?
This is awesome creation sir.

Hi first of all,very informative video. Second i want to ask i am planning for 10days in leh in april 4-14th. Any trip planner which offers bikes as well as a maintenance car along contact would be helpful to me. Also would this a food time to visit?

Thank you so very much.. have a wonder trip!
We are planing to go 6 days in Kashmir from Delhi and than 6 days to Leh Ladhak again by flight in July , pls advice about AMS and all other tips you can give. We are planning 6 days in Srinagar, another 6 days in Leh Ladhak and 2 days in Delhi and back ro Mumbai after 2 weeks break. Need advice. Family of 4.
Best will be to take road trip to Leh from Srinagar instead of flying. You will get better acclimatization than flying directly. You need to stay over 2000-2500 mtrs to get your body acclimatize. So better option is to take night halt at Kargil and then by road to Leh next day
Hi Dheeraj, please let me know if backup vehicle n mechanic support mandatory to do Leh Ladhak bike ride this year June
There is no such mandatory guidance. It is matter of choice only if you need those services or not. It is all up to you.
@@discoverwithdheeraj Thank you. What i meant to ask is in case my bike has a mechanical issue and does not start at all, so in this case if I'm with a back up provided team then I'm safe since if bike not repaired it will be toed to the near by workshop. If I'm riding without such support then will i get any support there??? How to manage.
Yes, in such a case if you can afford for the mechanic and spare vehicle services then you can take it. Main thing is that if you have a group of 5-6 riders then the cost makes sense else it becomes very costly.
Thank you so much🙏🏻🙏🏻this is THE video we need. Period.
Glad it was helpful!
Hello Sir, I am planning to visit September 2nd week. My itinerary will include khardung la pass, pangong, Tso mori, tso kar, Hanley. And exit through Manali to visit apple orchard on the way if there’s any😆. Please recommend it suggest the trip plan for 12 days or 13

Thank you we the content on this page is very well explained, we had one question is mid may a good time to plan Ladakh trip, will there be any risk in terms of bad weather conditions that reduce chances to visit Pangong tso lake ?
@discoverwithdheeraj
In mid May too snowfall can happen but chances are usually less..
Your this video made watch many more video of yours and thats really great.
I need some input from you, i am planning trip from 11-16 by early morning flight, i can basically book leh club mahindra and for rest i am mot sure how to plan and where to stay. Please help with best possible itenary in these days. No child only me and my wife are travelling.
Day 1 Leh rest and acclimate
Day 2 Leh rest and local sightseeing
Day 3 Visit nubra valley and stay at Diskit or Hunder
Day 4 go over towards Pangonf and stay at Tangtse 34 km before lake
Day 5 visit the lake in morning and come back to Leh by evening
Day 6 fly back home
Please give update regarding mobile network for using map for trip?
Download the google maps to your phone, network is not present everywhere
May we stay 3rd day at lamayuru? We are planning to stay 4th day at Nubra !we will be there in comming Saturday!
If you are flying to Leh, sleeping for 2 nights and then 3rd night at Lamayuru, it is fine in general. Just follow the acclimatization tips from my video.
Thanks quick reply , yes I'm flying direct ccu to Leh we are stay 2 days at Leh after that I'm move to moonlad after that we have planned to go hunder then Tso Pangong and Tso moriri. Thanks again❤

i want to cover the pangong circuit and hanle with umling la
can you pls tell me if its possible for a overnight stay in pangong and hanle?
april first week
Pangong is more or less frozen in first week of April, also surety of Hanle to Umling La Pass road open or not in April is not 100%. Sometimes due to snow the road is closed. Also, April is more or less Winter conditions in Ladakh, I hope you are OK with it?
Dhiraj ji namskar, is there any guidance for me where I am coming Srinagar by flight and then start my tour of ladakh 9-10 days and on 11 th fly back from leh airport?
Well, take rest in Srinagar when you arrive, explore locally. Then next day travel to Kargil, stay overnight and then travel to Leh covering Sham Valley. Check the video below from Day 3 onwards. You can follow the video for rest of the days but instead of exiting from Tso Moriri to Manali, come back to Leh and fly out Best Ladakh Road Trip Itinerary in 12 Days | 2023 Leh Ladakh Trip by Road Plan | Dheeraj Sharma

Wanted to do a one-way road/ air trip. Would you suggest driving from Srinagar-leh and flying back from leh or flying to leh and driving back from leh-manali?
Best ways as per acclimatization is going from srinagar to Leh by road and then flying out. However, if you really wish to do Manali Leh Highway then it is better to fly to Leh, acclimatize, do Ladakh sightseeing and then travel Leh to Manali by road.
Please mention 4 adult package for 8 days by air from kolkata

Most likely yes
Hello sir, it would be great to have your expert view on the below itinerary for upcoming independence day weekend.
Day 1: Land at Leh, local sightseeing stay at Leh
Day 2: Leh to Kargil (war mueseum, magnetic hill, indus zanskar confluence on the way). Stay at Kargil.
Day 3: Kargil to Leh, on the way sightseeing. Stay at Leh.
Day 4: Leh to Nubra Valley (via khardung la). Stay at Diskit, Nubra valley
Day 5: Nubra to Pangong lake, stay at Pangong camp
Day 6: Pangong to Leh, stay at Leh
Day 7: Fly back to Delhi.
Give the days in hand it is OK.. Not sure if you want to go to all the way to Kargil and come back as most of the sightseeing is in Sham Valley which can be done as a day trip unless you want to visit Lamayuru. The day saved can be used to visit Turtuk day trip when you are in Nubra Valley
I am planning in 1st week of nov to ladhak is it right time...?

Can we travel leh ladkah with wife ??and that road trip with rented bike route frm srinagar to leh ladakh and den leh manali route ???
Plz clarify me qouestion is from where we can start our bike trip ?? And then can we travel with wife ?? And then can we do circuit that from srinagar to leh ladakh den ending leh manali road.
Well it will be very much inconvenient as you have to rent bike at multiple places. Outside rented bikes are not allowed for sightseeing in Ladakh. Better travel to Leh using other modes of travel and then rent bike in Leh for local ladakh sightseeing
@@discoverwithdheeraj if we rent bike from manali den upto leh we can use it ??? Den frm leh we have again rent diffnt bikes ??
Usually that is what happens but then last year the bike unions had issues and they said Sarchu will be the point where bikes cannot cross. Like Manali rental bike cannot go beyond Sarchu and Leh rental bikes cannot go beyond sarchu

Thank you so much Dheeraj Sir. Thank you so much for such a detailed guidance Sir. May I ask if obese people say for example weight between 80 to 90 kilos can travel to Leh. Does it cause complications due to low oxygen levels over there Sir?
Maria, I am not a medical expert on it but I think as long as you are following the acclimatization tips (Check video: ruclips.net/video/8XijLqr6O0Y/видео.html) then you should be OK. However, plz DO NOT treat it as medical advice and you MUST consult your doctor by telling the condition to them and telling that you will be traveling to High altitude places. So, ask them for proper medical advice there.
In July first week coming in flight any ans problem
AMS problem can happen anytime to anyone.. Month or season does not play big role but yes traveling in season time always help because body do not need to worry fighting cold conditions. So, July will help you better acclimatize but you should follow the tips of acclimatization. Check my video: ruclips.net/video/8XijLqr6O0Y/видео.html

Sir, hanle or leh manali highway, which is better to view.
Both have their own beauty you will not go wrong with anyone of them
You have said that depending on health situation at Nubra, we should think of proceeding or not proceeding to Pangong. However, hotels are already prebooked at one location with full payment. How to handle this?
It is tough to handle such a situation when bookings are done. However, safety and health should always come first especailly in the remote land/areas of Leh Ladakh where real help is distant away, mostly in Leh.
Can you please suggest if i have to choose between visiting lamayuru or hanle which one should i pick?
Hanle anyday..

Hi Dheeraj, I am travelling to Leh September 2023 1st half with my sister and parents (both senior citizens). We are planning to follow this same itinerary from 9th to 16th after which we're travelling to Srinagar for a week long Kashmir tour.
Could you please tell us about the road conditions there? I'm planning to book a private cab and would like to get an estimate of the cab fares too if possible.
Hi Pallavi, that time in September is a very good time to travel up there in Ladakh.. less tourist, cool weather. Just carry layered clothing as lakes and passes start to get cold. Roads are in mostly best shape during the entire season in September. For taxi rates estimate, please check this video of mine: ruclips.net/video/Bb34IY3SNoM/видео.html
You can watch till the end where I have explained the routes including this itinerary as well for estimate.
Is it convenient to visit Pangong from Hunder directly. Can we expect any heavy river crossing?
River/Water crossings are very occassional now. If it is heavily snowing in lower hills, then only such a case be there else the driect route from Nubra/Hunder to Pangong is very much the normal route for tourists.
We r planning for 10 days vacation pls suggest when we should visit Kargil memorial?
Are you flying into Leh and flying out of Leh and following the itinerary in the video above and want to fit the Kargil War Memorial with it?
Sir we r planning in first week of October in Leh Ladakh want to know about facilities of restroom on the way actually I m diabetic so want to know wt precautions I have to take pls suggest trip by flight
Well, there are some restrooms made but mostly very limited on the route. I will say try to use at pit stops like main places which are there in Ladakh. As soon as you see some market/town along the road, you should inquire about it. Only very few places have public restrooms installed and long distances you will not get anything mostly. So make use of most of the places where there are restaurants.
What things to keep in mind when travelling during April end?? Is April end good for visiting Leh??

Now is it a good visit April 23 to may 11. And are roads okay right now what ever you mentioned in this video??
Well, roads within Ladakh are mostly open. The road to Changla Pass - Pangong was closed for a day or two due to snowfall.
@@discoverwithdheeraj oh then how to go there? Is there any other way???
IT will open in couple of days within Ladakh but there is a road from Nubra to Pangong via Shyok which is open.
@@discoverwithdheeraj is it good for solo rider on bike????
Roads are more or less same within Ladakh bhai.. plz check my videos of bike trip tips in English Playlist
Please give contact of reliable trustworthy drivers fully equipped with local know how and ways
For taxi in Ladakh, Chamba - 09596979829 / 09906999808. A very, very nice and humble person from Ladakh. Knows me pretty well, more like another family friend in Ladakh.

Is pure veg restaurant a major challenge in leh ladakh trip?
Only in and around Leh you will find pure veg.. otherwise other places you need to carry your own food and 100% veg restaurants may not be there. They make both food. Veg food you will get everywhere though.
Hi Dheeraj, can't thank you enough for this. So well articulated ❤
I'm planning a kind of hybrid tour i.e. Srinagar to Leh by road and fly back from Leh. I can spend 7 days entirely between reaching Leh and exit from it. Can I do the local sight seeing after completing Pangong etc. We'll be somewhat acclimatised between Srinagar and Leh and will use the local sightseeing day for a bit of rest !
Yes, if you are traveling by road to Leh from Srinagar. Then after reaching Leh, next day in Leh you can basically do local sightseeing in Leh. Also after coming back from Pangong as well you can do it. What is the itinerary you are following? Share your draft here and I will recommend edits if required.
@@discoverwithdheeraj
Day 1-2 : Srinagar to Leh
Day 3 : Leh to Nubra via Khardung La. Stay in Hunder
Day 4: Hunder to Pangong
Day 5: Pangong to Leh
Day 6: Local city sightseeing and rest
Day 7-8 : Tso Moriri if all as per schedule. If needed, will do only Sham valley and keep the other day as back up.
Day 9 : Return
@tathagatapal plz put Day 6 as Day 3. After reaching Leh you must rest in Leh for another night then go for 3 day trip to Nubra and Pangong
@tathagatapal Sham Valley can easily be done when coming from Kargil to Leh on Day 2
@tathagatapal alternative you can also do
Srinagar Kargil
Kargil Sham Valley Leh
Leh local sightseeing
Leh to Nubra
Nubra to Pangong
Pangong to Hanle
Hanle to Tso Moriri
Tso Moriri to Leh
Fly back
Can we travel from leh to Srinagar in January first week?

Hi Dheeraj, We are travelling to Leh via flight from 5th May to 14th May. We want to add Tsomoriri in our trip. We are travelling with Kid of 8 yr. Can you please advise should we go to tsomoriri from Pangong or should we go back and then cover from Leh? Also if stay options will be available in Tso moriri at that time as online not getting any stay option to book in karzok.

All the best for your trip
Very informative video👍🏻 planning to go in june last week.. hopefully it doesn’t rain at that time.. also the cab drivers no which you mentioned.. can we book them for our whole trip?
Yes if you are flying to Leh then you can book them for entire Ladakh tour happpy to know my video was useful
Sir, as per my itinerary.... I will stay one night each at pangong and tso moriri lake .... So, if i reach the place in the evening.. can i book the tent/cottage stay immediately or should i need to book in advance??? Similarly, on my way to umling la pass, i need to stay one night at hanle... So can you prefer any cottage/homestay at hanle?? I've watched your "routes to umling la from hanle" video and still as a beginner i would like to know which is the best and shortest route to umling la from hanle without any checkpoint ( the main reason, iam traveling to leh is to reach umling la at any cost) please help with these..
Bhai depend karta hai kaunse season mein ja rahe ho.. agar abhi jaa rahe ho to main bolunga ku pe-book karoge to theek hai but agar July mein ja rahe ho to on spot par bhi mil jaayega aapko kuch na kuch.. baaki Hanle mein stay k liye mera ye video dekhein aap: ruclips.net/video/JF6cM_yx3-k/видео.html
End of April me ja sakte hain kya?
By flight to ja hi sakte ho
Hi Dheeraj, thank you sharing the detailed itinerary. I have a trip planned for mid April by flight and I want to go to Umling la pass, so could you please share details about this? Like how to go or if there’s any permit needed?
Well in that case you need to 1-2 days, one to Visit Hanle from and then one in Hanle to visit Umling La. by leaving early from Hanle you can visit Umling la, come down back to Hanle and then go over to Tso Moriri lake the same day. This will save a day for you. No permits are needed for Hanle or UmlingLa pass anymore just the environment fee that you will pay
@@discoverwithdheeraj great thank you so much for your reply and the detailed information. I also went through your blog on Umling la but couldn’t get accurate information based on the current conditions there at the moment. I have a couple of questions if you could answer them plenty.
1. Based on the itinerary shared by you, I will be visiting Pangong and I read in your blog that Hanle is about 170 KMs from Pangong, so would it be better to reach Hanle directly from Pangong and then come down to Tso moriri next day and then back to Leh city?
Or would it be better to visit Hanle directly from Leh on the 3rd day of trip and then Pangong then Hunder?
In my opinion, the following circuit should work:
Hunder-> Pangong-> Hanle-> Tso Moriri-> Leh. Please let me know.
2. Will there by any restrictions to go to Umling La by Indian Army?
Bhai, do not do the circuit in opposite direction. Plz choose the direction that you wrote above that is leh to Nubra to pangong to Hanle then start early from Hanle, visit Umling La and reach Tso Moriri by evening that day. Also for Umling La, if you checked my old English video then I will say plz check the latest Travel Guide cum Chat video I made for Umling La pass here Umling La Pass 2023 Travel Guide - Umling La Pass Permit -Umling La Bike Ride Highest Motorable Pass
ruclips.net/video/_7Lv5prOTDk/видео.html
It should clear all you doubts for it. No permit or special permit needed from army to visit Umling La pass as per last year at least.
@@discoverwithdheeraj thank you so much bhai. You really helped me on creating a perfect itinerary for this year’s Ladakh circuit. I really appreciate your information and the work you are doing. You will be on top very soon. Keep up the good work. Gonna watch the above shared video. Thanks a lot. ♥️🙏🏻
Thank you so much for your wishes and I am always happy to help!
How is the mobile network there??

Hello Dheeraj,
If we spend extra one day in Leh and visit Sham Valley on 3rd Day will this reduce our chances of AMS traveling by flight
Yes that certainly helps a lot.. keep following tips mentioned in Acute Mountain Sickness in Ladakh | Prevent Altitude Sickness / Mountain Sickness in Ladakh - Spiti
ruclips.net/video/8XijLqr6O0Y/видео.html
Sir i want to visit kashmir and leh ladkah in a stretch of 12 15 days can you suggest a good itenry for that
Are you going to fly to Srinagar and reach Delhi by road?
I m planning Ladakh tour in mid of September is it a good idea sirji @dheerajsharma
It is a good time to visit Ladakh
October month srinagar to leh by road trip possible?
yes possible in October but just travel on highway after seeing weather update. If it predicts snow on Zojila then avoid else can travel. It will get cold though in Ladakh in October.
Hey Dheeraj,
Great insights about the Leh trip. It eased our plan to visit. We are actually planning to visit this December during the Christmas-New Year week.
1. Is it worth visiting during that time?
2. Will there be too much of a crowd?
3. Do we get to see snowfall at that time?
If you suggest us to go based on the above pointers, I shall prepare an itinerary based on your inputs and videos.
Thanks a tonne! 🙂
