The Bap( father) of all the travelogue on Ladakh region. I read it word to word when I was planning for my 2016 Ladakh trip. I read it again to have some inputs for my 2018 Ladakh trip.This time I want to do the Merak-Chusul-Mahe-Korzok route. I am done designing my itinerary on the base of this write-up.

Back in 2016, I was not a BHPians so couldn't thank tsk1979 for these write-ups. Thank you very much, tsk1979 for this amazing detailed travelogue. Standing ovation to you, TSKsir.

Hello Tanveer,

It's amazing to go through your travelogue! It's been nothing less than a fairy tale what where you see unicorns & find yourself amidst them.

I'm so glad to know BRO helped you fix your White Elephant.

The Road to Padam still takes 9-10 hrs. I'm attaching a screenshot here of the conversation w/ Dad on his recent inspection of BRO RCC at Padam.






Also, you correctly mentioned that the Top priority for India/BRO/Project Vijayak is to make the Darcha-Sinku La-Padam-Chilling Road as a 3rd Alternative to Leh. A tunnel is planned at Sinku La. Let's see when that concretes.
My dad when he was posted in Manali back in 2008-2010 ordered a recce & I was a part of it (My college semester break & my love for Trekking). Along with various uncles, it was an amazing experience.

Also, you'd know the Road to Hanle Observatory is paved by BRO.


I recently did my 4th Leh Trip. I'm so inspired by your writing skills, I'm planning to write a travelogue soon.
And post that all the travelogues post that about my experiences being a Border Roads Engineering Services Brat!

Please do so. It would be great to read about perspective of an insider
That said, I was hoping that national highway 301 tag will make the Padum-Kargil route better, but it seems its made it worse!
