Itinerary Detail
Upon arrival in Leh, our representative will meet you and provide an assisted transfer to your hotel. Once you reach the hotel, complete the check-in formalities. The remaining part of the day is for rest to get acclimatized to the high altitude (3500 meters/11800 ft) and low air pressure in Leh. Strolling around the local markets during the evening may be a good idea. Overnight stay is arranged at the Hotel.
After breakfast, you will proceed to a 68 km ride to the 1000-year-old paintings of Alchi Monastery. Here, delve into the region’s rich history and interact with the monks. Then, continue your ride to visit the famous Maitreya Buddha statue at Likir Monastery. The monastery offers panoramic views of the surreal landscape and the snowcapped Himalayan mountains. Further, drive past the confluence of the Indus & Zanskar rivers at Nimoo, Magnetic Hill, and the military Hall of Fame. After an eventful day, retreat to the hotel for an overnight stay.
Day 3 morning of a 5-day trip to Ladakh starts with a visit to Khardung La Pass, which is snuggled at an elevation of 18360 ft. It is the world’s highest motorable pass. During the afternoon, you will have the unique opportunity to meet a local family in Stok village, where you can savor delicious homemade butter tea and barley drinks, a traditional Ladakhi treat.
Later, visit the Thiksey Monastery, which houses the most photographed statue of Maitreya Buddha in India. Hemis Monastery will be the last stopover of the day.
