| ![]() Hi, on the Leh website, its mentioned Srinagar - Leh road status as OPEN ! And we can get online Ladakh region's ILP by visiting LAHDC Leh Permit , though I believe the printouts have to be stamped at Leh DC office to make that online permit valid. regards, Pranav |

What time you"ll land at Leh? If you are reaching Leh by flight, it is advisable to spend more than 24 hours in Leh. As per your plan, you are going to the highest point of your trip within 24 hours of your landing in Leh. K top could be dangerous on the very second day of your arrival in Leh. |

Your overall trip is relaxed except for day 9. If you can save day 4, you can utilise that extra day in Srinagar or enroute to Srinagar. | |

| ![]() I am a little confused about the current routes in Ladakh and which are open to public. I will be booking my tickets this weekend and my plan was to go directly from Pangong to Tso Moriri and stay overnight at Tso Moriri rather than coming back to Leh. Please suggest if the road from Pangong to Tso Moriri is open and how long will it be taking? I know it's going to a bit hectic with family but hopefully it will be worth the effort. Otherwise, I will come back to Leh from Pangong and go from Leh to Tso Moriri the next day. |

![]() However, I suggest you wait for some more days. There are some issues and confusion at DC office Leh. It will take two more days to have complete clarity on this matter. I am also planning a trip to Leh during this May and want to go to Tso Moriri from Pangong Via Chusul. I am keeping a close eye on all the news and updates from Leh, I"ll keep updating this thread with all the news and updates. Last edited by GTO : 21st April 2018 at 09:29. Reason: More typos | |

| ![]() All, I have finally booked my flight tickets to Leh. I will be in Leh from June 11-June 19 along with my wife and 10-year old daughter. Here is the tentative itinerary Day 1 - Drive from Leh to Uletopko, stay at resort and relax Day 2- Visit Alchi monastery,Likir Monastrey,Indus & Zanskar river Sangam, , Pathar Sahib Gurdwara and Magnetic Hil, stay at Leh hotel Day 3 - Leh to Nubra,Deskit, Hunder Villages and camel Safari, stay at Hundar Day 4 - NUbra to Leh, evening Leh market etc, Stay at Leh Day 5- Leh to Pangong, stay at Pangong Day 6 - Pangong to Leh vis Hmeis monastery, stay at Leh Day 7 - Leh to Tso Moriri Day 8 - Tso Moriri to Leh Day 9 - fly back. Let me know if the above itinerary looks good. I was planning to spend the day 1 at Ule rather than Leh. Is it a good idea? Is this plan very hectic for family? Another option is we can go from Pangong to Tso Moriri directly if roads are open but not sure. Hotels shortlisted - Ulletopko - Ule Ethnic resort Leh - Ladakh Sarai/Druk Ladakh Nubra - Hunder Sarai/Desert Himalaya/Himalayan Eco Resort Pangong - Pangong Sarai/Martsemik Tso Moriri - Tso Moriri Camp Any suggestions regarding itinerary or hotels are welcome. |

About Pangong to Tso Moriri, I understand it's a pretty long drive of 9-10 hours which can be tiring for the family. Apart from that, it seems the roads are not open to public because of security reasons | |

| ![]() Hi friends, kindly suggest your valuable inputs for my Ladakh trip, starting next weekend: Vehicle: Toyota Fortuner 3.0 4WD MT Travelers: myself, wife, daughter (13yr) ![]() some areas of concern or uncertainty I have marked in red, inputs please. OT/PS: A month back, I replaced my ~7.5yr MM-Xylo (1.97 Lac KM) with this pre-owned T-Fortuner (~2.5yr/81K KM), and all services done. Apart from routine city usage, Fortuner did trip to Mumbai-Vadodara, and this Ladakh will be first big trip for this vehicle, and first for us too. Xylo served me very well for numerous trip, biggest trips were Spiti (May15) and Bhutan (May17), with same traveler list. Fortuner has 80 Ltr diesel tank, and I do have 2 x 20Ltr diesel Jerrycans, still feel the need for more fuel stock on that long stretch of Nubra - Hanle - Karzok - Sarchu! Anyone tried buying fuel in black from those villages ? thanks again, Pranav |

My XUV has 70tr tank and i did this stretch with just one 20 ltr can and without needing to refill until after Jispa. I still toped up the tank in Hanle using fuel supplied by our homestay owner and had zero issues. Plenty of fuel was still left in tank when we reached Jispa. The villages like Hanle, Turtuk have no 24/7 power and many have gensets there to support power needs. So diesel is easily available from their stock. | |
