Before you book
Questions riders ask
Is 8 days enough for a Ladakh motorcycle tour?
Yes, because this itinerary starts in Leh. You do not spend two days riding up from Manali or two days returning to Delhi. That gives you six full riding days inside Ladakh.
Which passes does the Ladakh Circuit cross?
The major passes include Khardung La at approximately 5,359 m, Umling La at 5,798 m, Photi La at 5,524 m and Tanglang La at approximately 5,328 m, plus Tsaga La.
Which lakes are included?
Three major high-altitude lakes: Pangong Tso, Tso Moriri and Tso Kar.
Do I need my own motorcycle?
No. A Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 is provided.
How many riders are in each group?
A maximum of 10 riders.
Can foreign riders join?
Yes. Foreign riders need their valid motorcycle licence and the required International Driving Permit. Offhorizon handles the necessary local permits for the expedition.
What happens if the weather changes?
The Himalayas always have the final say. If weather, road conditions, landslides or local restrictions make a section unsafe, the team can change the route or timing. Safety comes before the published itinerary.
Is fuel included?
Yes, fuel is included in the expedition price.
