PACKAGE OVERVIEW
The journey begins with a climb into thinner air, where the road stretches wide and the landscape starts to empty out. Towns give way to open valleys. Mountains rise higher, sharper, and closer with every hour.
Days move at the pace of the terrain. Long drives unfold through high passes and river valleys. Prayer flags flicker at roadside shrines. Small settlements appear briefly, then disappear behind bends in the road. The colours shift constantly — deep browns, pale blues, sudden streaks of green along the riverbeds.
Mornings arrive cold and clear. Lakes lie still, reflecting the sky until the wind begins to move across the surface. Evenings are quiet, shaped by fading light and the simple comfort of warmth after a day on the road.
The experience stays with you not because of how much you see, but because of how it feels to move through Ladakh — steadily, openly, and without hurry.
