For the best experience, we suggest that you visit Leh by road between the months of June and August when summer is in full swing. &nbsp;The weather is pleasant and you can stop oper at many places to soak in the charming ambiance of the hills. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Bike Rental Options &amp; Tours<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you do not own a bike or have one that is apt for this trip, you can rent one out. Rentals begins at Rs. 1500 per day and you are required to submit a small deposit fee that is refundable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking for company on the trip? You can join a biking tour. From Delhi, there are many bikers who embark on long rides, especially to Leh Ladakh. A few tour operators also organise bike rides to the mountains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Route<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Delhi \u2192 Patnitop \u2192 Srinagar \u2192 Kargil \u2192 Leh \u2192 Tanglang La \u2192 Sarchu \u2192 Jispa \u2192 Manali \u2192 Mandi \u2192 Karnal \u2192 Delhi<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone normal size-full wp-image-21799\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"520\" src=\"https:\/\/static-blog.treebo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/A-biker-enjoying-a-road-trip-to-Leh.jpg\" alt=\"A biker enjoying a road trip to Leh\" class=\"wp-image-21799\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.treebo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/A-biker-enjoying-a-road-trip-to-Leh.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.treebo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/A-biker-enjoying-a-road-trip-to-Leh-300x195.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.treebo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/A-biker-enjoying-a-road-trip-to-Leh-768x499.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.treebo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/A-biker-enjoying-a-road-trip-to-Leh-740x481.jpg 740w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption>A biker enjoying a road trip to Leh<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In the route below we map out the journey from Delhi to Leh, via Srinagar, returning from Leh via Manali for change of scene. You can, however, follow the same route back or choose to swap the going and returning routes if you prefer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Delhi \u2192 Patnitop \u2192 Srinagar <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Most of your journey on this route is via the NH 44. The initial parts of the route are pretty comfortable, but as you drive closer to Patnitop, the road get narrower and you may get a bit of traffic. Do not forget to make a visit to the Nag temple in Patnitop. The ride from Patnitop to Srinagar is a short but decent one. The road up to the Titanic Point (no relation to the ship) is a bit bumpy, but after you pass through it, the road to Srinagar is majestic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Srinagar \u2192 Kargil <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This stretch is one of the most breathtaking ones to drive on. From Srinagar up to Sonmarg, the road is smooth. You will find a bit of traffic near the Gumri Post as the roads are very narrow. Just before you reach Kargil, you will have to pass Drass (the coldest place in India). Two important places to see in Kargil are the Gumri War Memorial and the Kargil War Memorial. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Kargil \u2192 Leh<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone normal size-full wp-image-21800\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"575\" src=\"https:\/\/static-blog.treebo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/The-Lamayuru-Monastery-.jpg\" alt=\"The Lamayuru Monastery\" class=\"wp-image-21800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.treebo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/The-Lamayuru-Monastery-.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.treebo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/The-Lamayuru-Monastery--300x216.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.treebo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/The-Lamayuru-Monastery--768x552.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.treebo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/The-Lamayuru-Monastery--740x532.jpg 740w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption>The Lamayuru Monastery<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the last stretch of your road trip to Leh and it will be a memorable one. As you pass through the road there are some great sites to see such as the Mulbekh Monastery, the Namik La Top and the Lamayuru Monastery. The highlight of a drive through the road from Kargil to Leh are the gorgeous mountains that have variations in colour. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Leh \u2192 Tanglang La<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone normal size-full wp-image-21801\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/static-blog.treebo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Tanglang-La-is-one-of-the-highest-passes-in-India-.jpg\" alt=\"Tanglang La is one of the highest passes in India\" class=\"wp-image-21801\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.treebo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Tanglang-La-is-one-of-the-highest-passes-in-India-.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.treebo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Tanglang-La-is-one-of-the-highest-passes-in-India--300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.treebo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Tanglang-La-is-one-of-the-highest-passes-in-India--768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.treebo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Tanglang-La-is-one-of-the-highest-passes-in-India--740x493.jpg 740w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption>Tanglang La is one of the highest passes in India<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The first stop you can make on your way back to Delhi from Leh is at Tanglang La. It is located at a height of around 17000 feet above sea level and is one of the highest passes in India. The drive on this portion is scenic on both sides. Riding through this route is challenging but it is a lot of fun. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tanglang La \u2192 Sarchu<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Drive down the Leh- Manali Highway till you reach the Lungta Restaurant. There is a homestay here, in case you want to spend a night in Sarchu. If you are an adventure sports enthusiast, try the difficult trek in Zanskar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Sarchu \u2192 Jispa<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Leave early morning to get to Jispa. You will have to pass through the Rohtang Pass, which is always crowded with tourists, so to avoid traffic, leave from Sarchu early. Once you get to Jispa, visit the Triloknath Temple, it is a serene and spiritual place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Jispa \u2192 Manali<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone normal size-full wp-image-21802\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"558\" src=\"https:\/\/static-blog.treebo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Ride-through-scenic-mountains-from-Leh-to-Manali.jpg\" alt=\"Ride through scenic mountains from Leh to Manali\" class=\"wp-image-21802\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.treebo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Ride-through-scenic-mountains-from-Leh-to-Manali.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.treebo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Ride-through-scenic-mountains-from-Leh-to-Manali-300x209.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.treebo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Ride-through-scenic-mountains-from-Leh-to-Manali-768x536.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.treebo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Ride-through-scenic-mountains-from-Leh-to-Manali-740x516.jpg 740w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption>Ride through scenic mountains from Leh to Manali<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Distance: <\/strong>137 kilometres<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The last leg of the trip on the Leh Manali Highway, the drive from Jispa to Manali is splendid. You will pass through the &nbsp;Leh Ladakh bridge and will also have to drive through the National highway 3. On the way you can stop at Kothi where there a few restaurants. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Manali \u2192 Mandi \u2192 Karnal \u2192 Delhi <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The route from Manali to Mandi and beyond can be a little difficult to drive on because of certain bad patches. Along the way, stopover at the Gurubaksh Dhaba in Roopnagar for delicious food and refreshments. As you pass Karnal, the drive is fun and the roads are excellent. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Things to do in Leh <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Trekking: <\/strong>Leh is well known for its picturesque hills, some of which are excellent for trekking.
