Ladakh Bike Trip Package: Fixed Departures (7N/8D) (7N/8D)
Description
Tour Details
Looking for a bike trip to Ladakh with a proper support team behind you? Our Ladakh bike trip package is a fixed-departure group motorcycle tour from Leh, built for experienced riders who want the mountain roads without arranging bikes, fuel, permits or stays on their own.
This Ladakh bike tour package covers Leh, Khardung La, Nubra Valley, Turtuk and Pangong Lake in 7 nights and 8 days. Each group has about 20 riders (up to 25 on busy departures) on Royal Enfield Himalayan bikes. A bike leader and a marshal ride with the group, and a mechanic and a 4x4 backup vehicle (Toyota Hilux or Jeep) follow behind.
The Ladakh bike trip cost is ₹38,000 per person + GST, from Leh Airport. The first two days are for rest and light sightseeing in Leh, which sits at about 3,500 m (11,500 ft), so your body can adjust before the high passes. Our Leh Ladakh bike tour packages run from April to October, and the 2027 fixed departure dates will be released in the first week of November.
LEH
Leh is the base for the journey. You arrive, rest, meet your fellow riders and your bike leader, and collect your bike and accessories before the ride begins. The group stays at Hotel Kanishka, a 2/3-star hotel in Leh.
KHARDUNG LA AND NUBRA VALLEY
The ride from Leh over Khardung La, at about 5,359 m, is the high point of the trip. From the pass, the road drops into the green Nubra Valley, where river plains, sand dunes and monasteries sit against snow peaks.
TURTUK
Turtuk is a Balti village near the border, known for its apricot orchards, stone houses and slow pace of life. It is one of the most distinctive stops on the route.
PANGONG LAKE
Pangong Lake, at about 4,350 m, is famous for its colours that shift from blue to green to grey through the day. You spend a night by the lake before riding back to Leh.
BIKES AND SUPPORT
Riders can choose between the Royal Enfield Himalayan 411 and the Himalayan [440/450]. Every departure has a bike leader, a marshal, a mechanic and a 4x4 backup vehicle (Toyota Hilux or Jeep). Riding days run about 6 to 9 hours including stops.
