- Ladakh World's Highest Motorable Pass Khardungla - 5,608 M
Top
of the World Motorbike Safari
Dharamsala
& Amritsar Holy Cities, Dharamsala is home to many thousand
Tibetans including the exiled Dalai Lama himself. If we are lucky
we may get the chance to join one of his public audiences if he
is in town. A major highlight of the tour is a visit to the Golden
Temple in Amritsar where we plan to see the early evening Granth
Sahib ceremony. This tour takes you to the Highest motorable Mountain
Pass in the World - Khardung La (5,602 M) and across into Nubra
Valley. Ride starts from Amritsar & Ascends Lower Himalayas
and goes on to the arid Ladakh region crossing many mountain passes.
Also visit Pangyongtso Lake (lake of great hollowness), almost 130
Km long and 06 to 07 Km wide, extending east to west at a height
of 14000 Ft. The ride is tough, crossing mountain streams and at
times non-existent roads in landslide prone areas.
