Khardung La in Ladakh

Khardung La Pass, pronounced as ‘Khardzong La’ is also known as the ‘Pass of Lower Castle’.

It is a mountain pass in Ladakh in the Indian state of Jammu & Kashmir. This road is 39.7 km from Leh, located at an altitude of 5,359 meters. The work for construction was started in 1976 and opened for public in 1988. Khardung La Pass Ladakh is located on a caravan road from Leh to Kashgar in the mountain area. It acts as an entry point to the Nubra and Shyok valleys in Ladakh which is an important pass into the Siachen glacier. It is the most popular and frequently used pass in India. In olden days, mainly traders travelled through this road who used many horses and camels which navigated in a single line one after another to carry goods to Kashgar. This pass plays a significant role in transport for both India and China. Today, this road is vital for Indian Army since it is used to carry important materials to Siachen Glacier. This is a two way road and the nearest town to this pass is Leh which is routed to Manali and Srinagar.

This pass is said to be the highest motorable pass though there are many controversial debates going on for this claim. Mountain biking is very famous in this pass. The path of the road goes through the mountain peak and lets us admire the stunning beauty of the Leh town and mighty mountains around the valley. Some adventure seekers ride to the top of the Khardung La and make the return trip in bicycle to feel the excitement and admire the attractive views.

The road to Khardung La Pass is usually jammed because of the small landslides and road repairs. Due to this issue, it takes 3 hours to travel on this windy road. The complete maintenance of this road to the pass is done by the Indian Army. Indian Army post, a temple and an army canteen are available on the way to Khardung La Pass. North Pullu is a small place selling tea and snacks near Khardungla Pass. Thick clumps of snow are usually found between the road of Khardungla Pass and North Pullu. Travel to this exciting place and enjoy the natural beauty of the surroundings.

Ateesh's 8 days trip to Ladakh

Overall good experience. Though a 7 day plan must always include Hemis Monastry which was missing in our plan. Also, in Nubra Valley stay should be in Hunder and not Sumoor which is far away. Very helpful driver which made the whole trip comfortable.

Ateesh Kropha Delhi

Rishabh's 13 days trip to Ladakh

Deepika did a good job in organising the tour. Special appreciation for the driver Singay and the local representative Yukey. We hardly had any trouble during the journey. Would like to suggest that the camp at pangong can be better. Overall was a good experience at what we felt was a fair price.

Saveetha's 5 days trip to Ladakh

Response from both travel triangle & Priyanshu of Amazing India routes is very good. Amenities of Hotel Ladakh place are simple & fair enough. Hospitality of the hotel staff is extremely good, we just got pampered by them. Driver is also decent. I look forward to go on more trips with travel triangle. Pangong lake, khardungla pass, beautiful mountains, lake and snow. Simply loved them.

Saikat's 11 days trip to Ladakh

We have recently completed the trip (10 Nights-11Days) to Leh - Kargil- Ladakh - Manali with Amazing India Routes, and we had an amazing experience with their arrangements, as per our requirements and preferences. Best part was on-trip support provided by the Amazing India team (Priyanshu). There was a blocker on our trip: Nubra valley to Pangong. Agent called me up-front inside the trip and accommodated the itinerary the to best possibility so that my trip is not hampered. It provide me complete peace of mind while travelling. Cab and driver quality was great through out the tour(Xylo for Local, Innova for outstation. Hotels and camps at Leh, Nubra, Pangong, Tsomiri was great. But improvement needs for the Hotels at Kargil. Overall its a great experience- 4.5 star

Krishnendu's 11 days trip to Ladakh

We have recently completed the trip (10 Nights-11Days) to Leh - Ladakh with Amazing India Routes, and I must admit we had an amazing experience with their arrangements, as per our requirements and preferences. Every prospect of the trip is properly planned and absolutely no issues whatsoever in that regard. Mr. Priyanshu, our tour representative was constantly in touch and provided assistance as and when required, and I must say he has very good knowledge regarding the area /tour details. All the arrangement of hotels at Srinagar, Kargil, Leh, Nubra, Tsomoriri and tent at Pangong was very nice, clean and decent. Especially the arrangement at “Mystique Pangong” tent is very nice and cozy one. A special thanks to the Amazing India team for the excellent planning for early start from Srinagar to avoid the recent political disturbances and give us smooth journey ahead. They provided us Innova for the entire trip with the same driver from Kargil to end of the trip. Our driver Jigmet is very good and skilled driver and he is very polite, punctual and knowledgeable person. Most importantly, according to our itinerary, they had the most reasonable quote. Overall, a great experience and I can totally trust on these guys for future travels. Thank you for everything.

Ankit's 5 days trip to Ladakh

Piya from Amazing India Route was amazing in helping us plan our trip. She even gave a great costing and kept my preferences of hotel in mind. She was proactive enough to let us know about issues at Pangong lake, but thankfully nothing happened. She also was aware of sickness that can happen on trip and suggested a relaxed itinerary, even though the money could have been more had we taken another itinerary - but that would have been a disaster later. Will recommend Amazing India to all.
