How much does the 14 day Ladakh Zanskar bike trip cost?
From ₹41,500 per adult on your own bike and fuel. A solo rider on a Himalayan 411 is ₹57,500, a dual rider ₹47,500, and a seat in the SUV or backup vehicle is ₹47,500.
Where does the 14 day Ladakh Zanskar bike trip start?
Delhi, and it returns to Delhi. The Delhi-Manali legs are by AC Volvo semi-sleeper bus and those tickets are booked for you.
When is the best time to ride through Zanskar?
July to September. The Padum road is the limiting factor, it opens later than the main Ladakh routes and closes earlier.
Do I need previous riding experience?
You need to be comfortable on a Himalayan-class bike over rough surfaces. These are high-altitude routes with loose gravel, water crossings and long saddle days, this is not the trip to learn on.
What if I do not want to ride?
Take a seat in the SUV or backup vehicle. It is a listed pricing option, and you follow the same itinerary and stay in the same places as the riders.
Are permits included?
Yes. Inner Line Permits for the restricted areas are arranged for you. Parking, monastery and monument entry fees during sightseeing are not included.
What about altitude sickness?
The itinerary is built around acclimatisation, and an oxygen cylinder and a fully stocked first aid kit travel with the group. Carry your own medication, including Diamox, and tell the road captain early if you feel unwell.
