Welcome to Ladakh and Zanskar, the crown jewel of the Indian Himalayas, called the land of high passes. Here, dramatic, high-altitude desert landscapes of Changthang meet brilliant blue skies and turquoise high-altitude lakes. The ancient Tibetan Buddhist culture thrives, centuries-old monasteries clinging precariously to cliffs and prayer flags fluttering in the wind. The primary travel season is short and spectacular, running from May to early October.
The new road connections make Padum to be accessible to Lahaul on one side and Lamayuru on the other side. Roads in Ladakh are now of excellent quality, reducing the travel time and increasing accessibility. Zanskar and Changthang, on the other hand, still offer off-road opportunities. We have created multiple unFixed travel itineraries, which focus on regional experiences and can be combined or modified to suit personal plans.
Ladakh and Zanskar are destinations for the adventurous at heart. They are a mecca for motorcyclists, trekkers, self-drive enthusiasts, and photographers. Each year BRO helps opens newer, higher passes to explore. The journey demands resilience but rewards travelers with unparalleled scenery and profound cultural experiences. This is a place for those who seek raw nature and a journey that is as much about the road as it is about the destination.
