White water rafting in Ladakh

White Water Rafting is an exciting water sport in which a raft is inflated and used to navigate on a river.

This sport is adventurous and risky which can give an adrenaline rush throughout the activity. There are various destinations in India which offers White Water Rafting. Ladakh is one of the most popular rafting spots in India. Adventure seekers flock to Ladakh to enjoy this attractive river rafting in Leh Ladakh. White Water Rafting in Ladakh provides an astounding view of snow clad mountain peaks, serene monasteries, hillside pleasant villages. Rafting in Ladakh happens from one day to a week expedition.

There are various levels of difficulty in river rafting ranging from Class 1 to Class 6 depending upon the fitness and expertise of the participating individuals. Class 1 involves small rough area where basic skill is enough, while class 2 involves rough water with rocks, where some skillful navigation is required. Good rafting experience is required in Class 3, which involves small waves. Class 4 involves medium waves; hence the individual should be full expert in rafting in this level. Large waves with large sharp rocks will be encountered in Class 5 so the participant should be fully qualified rafter to handle the pressure. Class 6 is more dangerous involving huge waves with huge rocks, so navigation will be next to impossible. Rafting in Class 6 may result in serious injury or even death. Hence, full knowledge and expertise in rafting is required still safety is a big question in this level.

River rafting in Ladakh is offered in two spectacular rivers namely, Indus River and Zanskar River. The Indus River, also known as the ‘Singhe Khababs’, which means out of lion’s mouth, rises from Tibet and flows through Ladakh to Pakistan. It travels from North West to South East direction to join Shayok and Suru and forms a miraculous beauty with historical richness. The best season to do rafting in Indus River is between June and August since, the water level increases at this period to give an exciting rafting experience. Rafting in Indus River is quieter and easier when compared to Zanskar. Indus River has grades from one to five rapids depending upon the speed of the river.

Zanskar River, also known as Tsarap flows through the Zanskar valley which is located at 12,000 feet above sea level. Zanskar River flows into the northern side of Indus River which originates from plateau of Sarchu at the border of Himachal Pradesh and Jammu & Kashmir. It flows through the mountains of western Himalayas and then it goes past the capital at Padum. Further, it joins the Stod River to finally reach the Pensi La pass on the road from Kargil to Padum. This river has rapids till grade 5. Rafting in Zanskar river lets us enjoy the thrilling experience amidst the beautiful hills and giant mountains. Include an experienced rafting individual in your adventurous rafting activity for guidance.

Anurodh's 5 days trip to Ladakh

recently booked a Ladakh trip through Tripita, and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the entire experience! From the very beginning, their team was incredibly helpful, responsive, and professional. They crafted a well-balanced itinerary that covered all the must-visit places like Nubra Valley, Pangong Lake, and Magnetic Hill while also allowing us to soak in the peaceful beauty of the region. The accommodations were cozy and comfortable, transportation was smooth and reliable, and our local guide was knowledgeable and friendly. Tripita made sure everything ran like clockwork, which allowed us to truly relax and enjoy the breathtaking landscapes without worrying about the logistics. What really stood out was their attention to detail and personal touch – they checked in regularly to ensure we were comfortable and satisfied with the arrangements. It was a seamless, memorable experience, and I would absolutely recommend Tripita to anyone looking to explore Ladakh or any other destination. Thank you, Tripita, for an unforgettable journey!

Shraddha's 4 days trip to Ladakh

My trip to Ladakh with Tripita was nothing short of extraordinary! The raw beauty of the landscapes — from the surreal Pangong Lake to the majestic Nubra Valley — left me speechless. Every turn revealed a postcard-perfect view, and the serenity of the mountains was truly humbling. I especially appreciated the hospitality at the hotel stays, where I got a real taste of Ladakhi cuisine and traditions. Shefali booked the best and most comfortable stay for us. She was very adjusting right from the time of booking. She gave us one of the best driver Tashi who made sure we reach everywhere on time and cover all the places of itinerary. The journey was adventurous with the bike ride and With high-altitude passes like Khardung La adding thrill and a sense of achievement. The monasteries were not only spiritual sanctuaries but also offered stunning architecture and serenity. I’m already dreaming of my next visit to Ladakh with Tripita again. We had an amazing and memorable experience. Thank you Shefali for one of the best trips.

Shubham's 7 days trip to Ladakh

I recently had the pleasure of experiencing a truly unforgettable trip to Leh-Ladakh, meticulously organized by Santa Ji, and I cannot praise it enough. From the moment our journey began to the time we returned, every detail was thoughtfully planned and seamlessly executed, making it one of the most memorable adventures of my life. One of the standout aspects of the trip was our stay at The Bodhi Tree Hotel. Nestled in the serene landscape of Leh, this hotel provided not just comfort, but a warm and welcoming atmosphere that made us feel at home away from home. The rooms were well-maintained, the staff was courteous and always ready to help, and the views were absolutely breathtaking. The food served was delicious and catered well to our tastes after long days of travel and exploration. It was the perfect base to relax and recharge. A special thanks and heartfelt appreciation to Bittu Ji, our driver and companion throughout the 7-day journey. His driving skills on the challenging mountain roads were exceptional, and we always felt safe and secure in his care. More than that, his cheerful personality, local knowledge, and willingness to go the extra mile truly enhanced our experience. Whether it was navigating the high-altitude passes or stopping at hidden scenic spots, Bittu Ji was always there with a smile and a story. The entire itinerary was well-balanced — covering all the key attractions like Nubra Valley, Pangong Lake, Khardung La, and local monasteries — while still allowing us time to soak in the natural beauty and tranquility of the region. Santa Ji’s planning ensured that everything ran smoothly, and his commitment to guest satisfaction was evident in every aspect of the trip. Overall, I highly recommend this Leh-Ladakh trip to anyone looking for a mix of adventure, comfort, and cultural richness. Thank you, Santa Ji, for crafting such a wonderful journey, and a big salute to The Bodhi Tree team and Bittu Ji for making it truly special.
