After a hearty breakfast, you'll gear up and set off towards Keylong, tackling the iconic Rohtang Pass along the way. The road to Keylong will be all paved with hilly terrain, but the breathtaking views will make every twist and turn worth it. Despite the "bum ache," the stunning scenery will leave you speechless and the climb will leave you breathless.

Fuel up both your bike and your spirit at Tandi. You'll need both as you navigate through the inspiring landscapes. Don't miss the chance to admire the heart-shaped waterfall at Sissu as you approach Keylong. By evening, check into your hotel in Keylong and unwind after an exhilarating day on the road.

Day 3: Keylong - Barachala - Pang (180 km / 112 miles, 7-8 hours)

Keylong alt: 3100 m
Pang alt.: 4500 m

After a hearty breakfast, gather and double-check that your luggage is securely loaded in the luggage vehicle. As you set off for Pang, remember that this is a remote stretch with no fuel stations, so ensure your tank is full and you have your high-altitude medication handy.

Today's ride is a thrilling mix of challenge and beauty - often referred to as one of the toughest yet most breathtaking stretches. The weather and road conditions can change on a dime, with road blockades, landslides, and snowfall being common, alongside numerous water crossings. It's a ride that will test your skills and endurance, so brace yourself for the unpredictable "death road."

While the stunning landscapes will captivate you, driving through freezing-cold water crossings and dodging falling rocks demands your full attention. The Himalayas can surprise you at any moment, so stay alert and safe.

After a day of exhilarating riding, your shoulders and back would be so damn tired, and your executive class body wouldn't mind sleeping at Banjaara style stays - cramped beds in a common room. You can cook your food outside with your trembling hands. You better be ready to dance when a fellow rider sings in the evening. Rest up at the ordinary dormitory-style transit camp stay in Pang; tomorrow's adventure awaits!

Day 4: Pang - Tanglang La - Leh (175 km / 109 miles, 6-7 hours)

Pang alt.: 4500 m
Leh alt.: 3500 m

"Come on, buddy! I know this place is amazing, but what's coming next is even better!" says a fellow rider as you gear up and roll out from Pang, venturing further into the surreal landscapes that feel straight out of John Carter's Mars. Your first stop is the stunning Morey Plains, the most picturesque stretch of road you'll ride. It's easy to lose track of time as you cruise along the endless, flat roads surrounded by towering Himalayan mountains. You'll feel a sense of timelessness as the scenery pulls you deeper into its embrace.

Next, you ride to the mighty Tanglang La, perched at an altitude of 5,328 m. As you ascend, the mercury drops faster than your speedometer climbs, and the cold begins to bite. You'll stop at the top for a quick photo op - if you can manage it with shaky hands from the chill! But don't linger too long, because the descent is just as thrilling, with the landscape constantly changing as the towering mountains shift colors before your eyes.

As you approach Upshi, riding alongside a tributary of the Indus River, the desire to stop for more photos will be strong. But you'll have learned your lesson after the bitter cold at Tanglang La.

The ride might be short at just 40 km, but the climb is intense. You'll feel the power drop in your engine and the thinning air as you climb to 1859 m.

Breathe in the crisp mountain air and take in the breathtaking views as the green valley gives way to rugged, towering peaks. At the summit, with 50% of the oxygen but 100% of the exhilaration, you'll take a well-deserved break for photos next to the famous Khardung La signboard. It's not just a ride; it's an achievement every rider dreams of.

Once the celebratory moment passes, you begin your descent into Nubra Valley. The landscape changes dramatically as you follow the Shyok River, passing Khardung village on the way. Your next stop is the magnificent Diskit Monastery, where you'll stand at the feet of the 108-foot Maitreya Buddha statue, taking in the panoramic views of the valley.

A short ride later, you reach the magical sand dunes of Nubra Valley. Here, you'll have the chance to witness the rare double-humped Bactrian camels, found only in high-altitude deserts like this.

Get ready, because today's ride is not for the faint-hearted. You begin your journey following the course of the Shyok River, whose name translates to "The River of Death" in the local language - a hint of the adventure that lies ahead.

After a short ride, you hit the narrow mountain road, snaking along rocky cliffs and into the wild heart of Ladakh. The offroading begins once you leave the main Leh road behind. The track starts easy with small patches of broken roads but quickly turns more demanding.

You'll ride through long stretches of fine white sand and unpaved tracks littered with loose stones and rubble. As you pass Agham village, the challenge really kicks in. Streams of glacial water cross our path, turning the ride into an unpredictable mix of mud and water crossings. It's like the Himalayan gods decided to test your physical and mental endurance today.

This is the day where you'll feel every bump and every turn, but it's also the day that will reward you the most. The epic final stretch, through what feels like a Martian landscape, leads you straight to the shores of the holy Pangong Lake. The crystal-clear blue waters stretch as far as the eye can see, flanked by towering peaks—a sight that will take your breath away.

Take a stroll by the lake's shore, snap some photos, and let the serenity of Pangong wash over you. But don't linger too long; the biting cold wind sets in quickly. Make sure to reach the semi-deluxe tents or cottages before sunset. The night may be cold, but You'll warm up fast with the adventure stories shared at the dinner table by fellow riders. Pangong Lake, with its brackish waters and stunning beauty, is worth every grueling mile of the ride.

Day 7: Pangong Lake - Rezang La - Hanle (180 km / 112 miles, 5-6 hours)

First, you'll hug the pristine coastline of Pangong Lake as you ride towards the Chinese border. Along the way, you'll pass through remote villages before reaching the last stretch of Pangong within Indian territory. But this is where the adventure truly begins!

Once you hit Chusul, the road will disappear into dirt trails, and the ride turns into an off-roader's dream. You'll feel the thrill of riding over stones and loose soil, with Rezang La's historical echoes adding to the atmosphere. Be prepared to navigate through multiple tire tracks that crisscross the dust - just follow your guide closely, or you might find yourself lost in a maze of sandy trails. Watch out for the hidden Tsaga La pass, which you'll cross without even realizing, thanks to the breathtaking surroundings.

Before long, you'll find yourself stuck (and loving it) in sand piles around Loma, and the journey continues as you cross the mighty Indus River. Brace yourself for one of the most scenic single-lane rides to Hanle—a mesmerizing path that feels otherworldly. By evening, you'll reach the remote village of Hanle, where the serenity is unmatched.

There are multiple routes leading to Umling La, but you'll take the one in the best condition or whichever is open. All of them pass through the famed Chisumle Bridge, a spot known for sightings of rare wildlife such as the Himalayan Marmot, Kiang (wild Tibetan donkeys), Blue Sheep, and the majestic Black-necked Crane. Keep your eyes peeled—this route feels like nature's secret playground.

You'll be taking the scenic yet challenging route via Nurbu La. After leaving Hanle, the landscape opens up into a vast, no-man's valley with dirt trails scattered everywhere. Here, it's easy to lose your way if you're not closely following your road captain - choose the wrong trail and you might find yourself stuck in deep sand!

The initial part of the ride is smooth, but the real challenge begins as you start the steep climb up Nurbu La. This unpaved road, with its sharp incline and fine sand, is sure to test your skills and endurance—this is what adventure riding is all about.

Upon reaching the top of Nurbu La, the reward is a beautifully paved road that leads us toward Umling La. From here, you ride along the Kingdul River, steadily climbing higher along the winding Chismule-Demchok road.

Unlike other high mountain passes, you won't see deep valleys here, but instead a dramatic landscape that feels like another planet. As you reach the Umlingla, your motorcycle will feel the altitude as much as you do—but nothing compares to the pride of taking a photo at the top of the world.

Once you've soaked in the moment (and maybe enjoyed a warm cup of tea at the legendary Oxygen Café), you'll begin your descent, heading back to Hanle for the night. This ride is a story you'll tell for years to come!
