Leh ladakh road trip | Leh ladakh tour | India Travel
This was my 5th road trip to Ladakh. I have done Manali to Leh in June / July / September earlier. This year I choose to do this trip in October. After doing this trip I feel the best time for Leh Ladakh road trip is June / July. In October, all the greenery is gone and the weather is very dry and cold. But let me tell you, even in pre-winters, Leh Ladakh is very cold and windy. Though it’s very warm in the day but at the same time very windy and cold at night. In October the green beauty is gone but the challenge is doubled. So for me it was still fun.
Manali to Jispa (Distance: 140 Km | Travel time: 4 hrs. approx.):
In summers, this drive is my favorite, but in winters, again all the greenery is replaced by dust and cold. Though I see a lot of less traffic, but the charm is still on. Anyway, so we started like 10.30-11 in the morning and reached Jispa by evening. On the way we crossed Rohtang La pass (altitude: 3,978 m or 13,050 ft.), Tandi, Keylong. At Tandi like usually, I got my tank filled and continued. Jispa was very cold and silent. Usually, it’s full of tourists, because everyone prefers to halt at Jispa for a night or say before driving further to Leh. I walked to the Bhag River and took few shots of the river and the beautiful valley.
Jispa to Leh (Distance: 340 Km | Travel Time: 12-13 Hrs. Approx.):
Again, one of the longest drives during Leh-Ladakh road trip. Keeping in mind, being October, the sun will rise late and set early, we started early in the morning around 5:30 am, so that we reach Leh before sun set. Early morning at Jispa, it was freezing, my windshield was frozen and I had to deice it with a jug of hot water. So we started before sunrise and witnessed the beautiful and bright sunrise on the way near Baralacha La. As expected, we found little snow on the passes. If you want snow, plan in June. SO we crossed the passes on the way one by one: Baralacha La (4,890 m or 16,000 ft.), Nakeela (4,738 m or 15, 547 ft.), Lachulung La (5,064 m or 16,616 ft.) and Tanglang La (5,328 m or 17,480 ft.). Needless to say all the passes are very windy and cold. For my co-travellers, it was even difficult to get out. Sarchu was deserted and the beautiful green plain was all dull, orange and dry. After Sarchu, we also crossed Gata Loops, 22 hairpin bends at 4,190 m or 13,750 ft. Then after crossing couple of passes, we reached Pang and then More Plains and finally Leh. But I must say being off-season, we faced very less traffic. Mostly trucks and army convoys. That day we reached Leh by 7 in the evening.

Leh Ladakh, India
April, 2015
Ladakh, open to tourism only since 1974, is a land of high passes, bounded by the Karakoram and the mighty Himalayas. The Indus with its tributaries acts is the lifeline for Ladakh's scanty population.
Ladakh covers an area of 97,000 sq kms, and has an average elevation of 3,500 m. It is often called 'Little Tibet', because of its topographical and cultural similarities with neighbouring Tibet. In the early days, Ladakh played an important role being strategically placed at the crossroads of important trade routes to Central Asia. This now remains in the past, with China having sealed off the borders of Tibet and Central Asia.
The rugged, arid Ladakh mountain-scape has been the subject of many a photographer and destination of world-class mountaineers. Its brackish lakes at high altitudes, picturesque peaks, charming mountain villages, expansive meadows, wildlife, monasteries, rich heritage, awesome physical features, and remoteness sets it apart from other favourite holiday hot-spot.
Ladakh provides great opportunities for adventure sports such as river rafting, trekking, mountaineering and mountain biking. Adventure tourism has contributed in a big way to Ladakh's economy.
Ladakhis are sweet natured, hard working and fun loving people marking every occasion with festivities. There are a number of Monastic festivals held through out the year, whose dates are decided according to the Tibetan calendar. During summer, most villages hold colourful archery festivals and contests, while most of the religious and scio-cultural events are held during the winter.
The Ladakhis are largely dependent on cattle. They comprise a predominantly Buddhist population with the only exceptions of Kargil and the Suru Valley which is inhabited by Shia Muslims and share cultural similarities with Baltistan, now in Pakistan.
The main languages spoken are Ladakhi, Purik, Tibetan and English.
Being in the rain shadow of the Himalayas, it is generally dry, with hot and dry temperatures during summers, and cold and dry during winters.
Its winter season is long with temperatures dropping to minus zero, and summer, warm with cool nights. Temperatures of -60 have been recorded in Drass.
The best time to visit Ladakh is between May and October.
There is an airport at Leh, which is well connected to Delhi, Chandigarh and Srinagar.
By road, Leh is connected to Srinagar and Manali.

Korzok, Tsomoriri - Changthang Plateau, Ladakh
Changthang Plateau of Ladakh consisting of Korzok& Tsomoriri has harsh, windy, cold weather, even in early summer. Tsomoriri Lake has on it's bank lined with snow. The live-stocks and the tending shepherds can be seen in vast stretch of pasture land in the backdrop of snow splattered hills and frozen water body in ground. It is common for the visitor's vehicle to be chased by the shepherd dogs. My travel story on Korzok and Tsomoriri can be accessed by taking the following link:

An Introduction to UNESCO Hampi, India: Morning Sightseeing Part 1
Hampi was capital of the 14th Century Vijayanagara Empire and was one of the largest and richest cities. This World Heritage Site wends its way between massive boulders remaining from a volcanic eruption millions of years ago.
I was fascinated with wonderful guide Ravi's description of how workers cut the boulders. What ingenuity... Come on folks. They did this in the 14th Century!
