What is the best time for a Ladakh bike trip?

June, July and August are the best three months for a Leh Ladakh bike trip. Also, May and September is a good time for a road trip in Ladakh.

How far is Leh from Ladakh?

Leh is a part of Ladakh. In fact, Leh is the capital of Ladakh. A common misunderstanding among people about Ladakh is that Leh and Ladakh are two different places. Ladakh, now UT Ladakh has two districts Leh and Kargil.

What is the best route to Ladakh for a bike trip?

The two main highways to Ladakh are:

Route1 – Manali – Jispa- Leh – Pangong

Route 2 – Jammu – Srinagar – Leh – Pangong

We strongly recommend you start your Ladakh bike trip from Leh. There are a lot of places in Ladakh for a thrilling road trip. And all the roads are favorite among riders for road trips. Renting a bike from Jammu or Manali is an expensive proposition in itself. The round trip from Jammu to Leh or Manali to Leh and back takes a lot of time and it’s very hectic and tiring. Also, renting a 150 cc to 500 cc bike will cost you a lot.

Is any Permit required for Leh Ladakh Bike Trip?

Yes, Permit is required to visit places like Pangong and Turtuk. Those areas fall under the Actual Line of Control, so Indian tourists, as well as foreign tourists, need to obtain a permit to visit the Lake.

How can I get the Permit to visit Pangong Tso Lake?

Inner-Line-Permit for Indian citizen.

Online: You can apply for Inner-Line-Permit online by visiting the site, but you need to verify it in the Leh DC office. Visit the tourism section of the Deputy Commissioner’s office, TIC Leh, with valid photo IDs for the verification process. You might need to wait in a queue for a long time during peak tourist season. If you have already booked a tour with us from our Ladakh tour packages, then don’t worry we’ll complete the verification process for you free of cost.

Offline: Visit Tourist Information Center Office in Leh. The opening hours are 10:00 am to 07:00 pm and the working days are Monday to Saturday. The office is closed on Sunday and other national holidays.

Protected-Area-Permit for foreign nationals.

Foreigners are required to apply for Protected-Area-Permit. PAP for individuals would not be issued. Apply for a PAP with a group of three or more. Also, you need to be accompanied by an accredited guide.

Online: You can apply for Protected-Area-Permit online by visiting the site, and you need to complete the verification process in the Leh DC office.

Offline: Visit Tourist Information Center Office in Leh with your passport and other required documents. The opening hours are 10:00 am to 07:00 pm. It is closed on Sunday and other national holidays.

We recommend you not to apply for these permits yourself for a hassle-free tour. Let us do it for you or engage a local travel agent.

Petrol pump

Fill your bike tank in Leh, before embarking on a bike trip to the remote areas. You will find refueling pumps at many places in Ladakh but don’t give your hopes on it. It would be best if you fill your tank in main Leh and then start your road trip. Also, a few of the local stores at various places sell petrol. Do not buy petrol from these local stores unless it’s an emergency, as they are usually adulterated.

ATM

A lot of ATM kiosks can be found in main Leh. But in remote places, ATMs are rarely available. So, it would be best to carry the required cash with you before starting the bike trip to a far place from Leh.

SIM, Mobile Signal and Internet Connectivity

As of now, postpaid SIM operators of BSNL, Airtel, and Jio are working in Ladakh on roaming service. The signal for BSNL is better than Airtel and Jio.

Internet speed is good in the main Leh area, but in remote places, the signals would be very weak or no signal at all. We highly recommend subscribing to a BSNL post-paid SIM before visiting Ladakh.

Can we camp in Pangong Lake in 2022?

Camping is restricted at many places near Pangong Lake. Contact us to know the situation before your visit.

Temperature in Ladakh?

The temperature in Ladakh keeps varying from place to place. Here is an average monthly temperature table of leh

Temperature are in degree celcius

Temperature varies from place to place. The temperature in Pangong in June would be 15 degrees at noon and -1 at night. And the temperature in Leh would be 10 to 15 in summer. The table shows the average temperatures of Leh of the last few years. The actual temperature for a particular month and place in Ladakh may vary.

Plan your visit to Ladakh as per the weather informed by your assigned tour operator. If you haven’t booked a tour with us, then call us to know the weather before your visit. Pack woolen and other warm clothes for the night which would be very chilly as compared to the temperature of the day.
