Ladakh is the place to go if you believe that the journey is as important as the destination. It’s a biker’s dream to hit those long winding roads that lead to Ladakh. The serene land is the perfect pace to relax, unwind and keep going at the same time. Each road has a story to tell and spins a new tale.

Close to the Leh city, there is the Magnetic hill which is said to have magnetic properties strong enough to pull cars uphill and force passing aircraft to increase their altitude to escape magnetic interference. Then there is the road at Hunder which is perfect to travel as well as to take pictures. The journey to the Pangong Lake or the Leh City too make for a lovely trip.

Ladakh has many lovely lakes like the Pangong, Tsomoriri, Tsokar or Chandrataal. You can stay in tents at the Pangong and Chandrataal and the latter’s kitchen you’ll probably have the best breakfast in your life.

Khardungla pass which happens to be the highest motorable road is a must visit. If you’re lucky you’ll witness the snowfall here. Other asses to visit are Chang La, Baralacha La, Tanglang La.

The best time to visit is between April to August. If you go towards the end og the tourist season you’ll get some really cool bargains!!
