Auto Expo: Brilliant Looking Safari Storme Ladakh Concept Showcased: Pic Gallery, Spec Sheet, All Details Inside

Tata has kept on display a new Safari Storme Ladakh Concept at the Auto Expo which is probably the most stunning car of the stall. It is aimed at off-road adventure seekers who wish to tackle any terrain with real ease.

Tata has also talked about a new DNA for passenger vehicles which comprises of following pillars:

• ConnectNext

The Safari Storme Ladakh demonstrates the DriveNext approach which, according to Tata, offers the driver best of driving dynamics, fantastic drive feel and precise steering control. It is a fine art of balance and handling and possess a responsive powertrain.

Interesting Features of Tata Safari Storme Ladakh Concept:

• Satin white colour along with textured Rock Grey and Soft Anodized Blue
• LED Fog lamps
• Front and rear cladding
• Roof mounted cladding along with storage area
• All-Terrain tyres
• Body cladding

We were not allowed to climb up and check out its interiors, but Tata says that the interiors comprise of sporty dark space with a few accents of anodised blue that resonate Ladakh landscape.

Just looking at it, the new Ladakh Concept looks brilliant and rugged. It gets a mean looking face and innovatively placed LED fog lamps. If you look closely there is a Go-Pro camera fitted at the front to record all your thrills when you go on an expedition. The 18 inch balloon extra rugged tyres further enhance the looks of an already gorgeous looker.

It further gets the following accessories:

• carabineers
• hiking shoes

This completes you as an expedition man and Tata further informs us that all these are coordinated with the overall theme of the car.

In terms of specifications, Storme Ladakh edition gets the same 2.2L VariCOR diesel engine capable of churning out 140PS of power output and 320Nm of torque. It is obviously a 4 wheel drive model and comes with disc brakes all around. Here is the complete spec list of Storme Ladakh Edition.

Safari Storme Ladakh Edition Specifications

Engine 2.2L VariCOR Max Power 140PS @ 4000 RPM Max Torque 320 Nm @1700 – 2700 RPM Gear Box G-76 (Mark II) Axle 4 x 4 (Four Wheel Drive) Wheel Base (mm) 2650 mm Wheel Track (mm) Front Track: 1580 mm; Rear Track: 1550 mm Vehicle Dimension L – 4655 mm x W – 1965 mm x H -1922 mm GVW (Kg) 2650 kgs Kerb Weight (Kg) 2095 kgs Payload (Kg) 555 kgs Brakes Vacuum Assisted Independent Hydraulic; Ventilated Disc Brakes in Front and  Rear Clutch Dry Single Plate Tyres R18 Steering Rack & Pinion Power Steering Suspension Front: Independent Double Wishbone Type with Coil Springs Over Shock  Absorber Rear: 5-Link Suspension with Coil Springs Fuel Tank Capacity 55 ltrs

We have seen at least 3 awesome looking concepts of Safari Storme, however none of them has ever made it to the market for an actual buyer. We urge Tata to launch this one in the market even as a special edition to enhance the appeal Storme carries with itself.

This Modified Tata Safari Inspired by Ladakh Expedition Concept Can Take on Anything You Throw at It

Last Updated: October 10, 2020, 17:34 IST

Modified Tata Safari. (Image source: Cartoq)

The overall modifications cost around Rs 8 lakh. However, the car is not road legal and might get you fined. But what’s the harm in keeping it in your garage right?

The Tata Safari is a moniker that will remain in the hall of fame of SUVs in India. After years of selling in the Indian market Tata recently pulled the plug on the car. However, a few units that customers have preserved since inception has become a ground for mind-boggling customisation and modifications. A prime example of which is what you see above.

The car that you see above is a Safari Dicor that has been extended from the back to accommodate an extra axle. And needless to say, the work looks pretty neat. Decals on the car suggest that the modifications were primarily inspired by the Ladakh Expedition Edition of the car that was unveiled at the 2014 Auto Expo.

Starting with the modifications, the car gets a new grille that has been updated to be all-black. Rest of the design continues to be in its stock form except for a few additions like the stone deflector that substantially changes the stance of the vehicle. Also new on the car are the LED auxiliary lamps that are mounted on the car’s roof.

Also Watch:

The main party piece, however, remains the extended body which is now longer than the stock Safari. To accommodate the bigger body, the car gets new windows and a longer tweaked chassis. The added axle is, however, not functional.

Camel Safari in Ladakh – Complete Guide

Camel Safari in Ladakh, a mysteriously alluring vacation spot in India, The Broken Moon Land offers activities like bike trips, camping trips, and camel safaris in Ladakh, to name a few. Travelers from all over the world congregate here, especially in the summer, to enjoy and appreciate the beautifully sculpted landscape that nature has created. You should undoubtedly not skip Ladakh’s magnificent Camel Safari, which is well-known for its double-humped Bactrian camels. These camels’ two humps aid in the storage of the necessary fat amid poor weather conditions.

About Ladakh Camel Safari

One of the nicest things to do in Ladakh is a camel safari, which is most frequently experienced in Nubra Valley. You will get the chance to live among the distinctive features of the Nubra valley, including snow-capped mountains, glistening, dribbling water, sand dunes, and an abundance of lush, green vegetation, during this trip. If you want to understand what you’ve been missing your entire life, spend a night in the middle of nature and beneath a sky filled with brilliant stars. Other thrilling activities in Ladakh include trekking, river rafting, mountain climbing, mountain biking, and yak safaris.

While on tour in Leh Ladakh , there are many enjoyable things that you can partake in. One of them is the exciting, interesting, and amusing Camel Safari. Wait till you’ve been on a camel safari before you decide that Ladakh’s bike trips are the greatest way to appreciate its landscape. When foreign visitors think of camel rides in India, they often picture the Thar Desert in Rajasthan, although Ladakh also offers many of them.

In truth, camels have long been a popular means of transportation in Ladakh and were once utilised to travel along the ancient Silk Road in the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries. They still captivate tourists today with their unusual features and the thrill they offer.

What kind of camels is found in Ladakh?

The camels in Ladakh are double humped and are known as Bactrian Camels, in contrast to the rest of India where you will only see single hump camels. They are one of the two remaining camel species and are considered to be in grave danger.

These thick-haired camels with shaggy coats are thought to have come from Central Asia.

Suggestion for Camel Safari in Ladakh

• You will initially feel a little uneasy, therefore you must learn how to balance your body weight while riding a camel and become accustomed to their motions. Your discomfort will be lessened thanks to padded cushions. During the camel ride, practise pulling the reins when necessary and leaning in the necessary direction.
• Acclimatization requires physical fitness. If you have any medical conditions, make sure to bring all of your necessary medications with you.
• Because the ecosystems of Ladakh are so delicate, it is strongly advised that you avoid littering.

Always wear appropriate clothing to ensure comfort, and never provoke the camel or offer it food.

Things to Carry

• Woolen clothing, gloves, socks, trekking pants, and trousers; cameras
• Juices, water, and snacks
• First aid kit
• Backpack or sleeping bag – During the day, if the sun is scorching, you may need a sun hat, sunscreen, sunglasses, moisturiser, lip balm, flashlight, toilet paper, and a towel.
• How to Reach

The closest location to reach Ladakh would be the airport in Leh. From Delhi, Srinagar, Jammu, and other significant cities throughout the nation, aircraft operated by Air India, GoAir, and Jet Airways provide direct connections. The flight schedules are subject to weather fluctuations and are subject to change. Always provide additional time and make proper preparations. You can take a variety of cabs and buses to travel to Ladakh after arriving at the Leh airport.

Leh Ladakh road trip might be a blessing for those who just adore travelling! To get to Ladakh, you can either take a private taxi or cab from Srinagar or Manali, and the trip is well worth the time and money. For travellers to get to Ladakh, there are also Jammu and Kashmir buses (JKSRTC) available. Bike trips from Manali to Leh are another popular option for thrill-seekers. Keep in mind that during the winter, routes are closed due to severe snowfall while planning any type of road trip. As a result, you should only schedule your road journey to Ladakh between May and September.

The distance between Jammu Tawi, the closest railway station, and Ladakh is about 700 kilometres. This railroad station has good train service from Mumbai, Kolkata, and Delhi. Once in Jammu, you have the option of taking a bus or reserving a taxi to get to Ladakh.

Q&A: How-To Take a Snow Leopard Safari in Ladakh, India with Expert Amit Sankhala

The allure of the ‘grey ghost’ in one of the most remote places on earth is what brings most travelers to the mountainous, trans-Himalayan region of Ladakh, India . With thick grey, white, and spotted black coats that give them a natural camouflage, the elusive big cats are almost impossible to see with an untrained eye. And while they have evolved to live in some of the harshest conditions—including India’s Hemis National Park—snow leopard numbers are scarce. Not only that, they are incredibly hard to spot and photograph in the wild, which makes our Quest for the Snow Leopard itinerary even more appealing to big cat enthusiasts and culture-seekers alike. 

There’s so much more to this mystical winter journey along the Silk Road than the sighting of snow leopards too. The entire experience of being in the Himalayas, surrounded by magnificent landscapes, remote mountain villages, and ancient kingdoms is unparalleled. There are Buddhist monasteries offering intimate cultural encounters, unique Himalayan and Indian cuisine, the opportunity to stay in an authentic, traditional homestay, Snow Leopard Lodge , or soon-to-open luxury camp LUNGMĀR. You’ll stand in awe of staggeringly beautiful scenery, and experience a quiet that’s hard to describe—offering the opportunity to truly disconnect. Plus of course, the unique wildlife viewing opportunities with knowledgeable guides and scouts make an expedition here one of the most extraordinary experiences we offer.

It’s truly just you, a handful of other people, the wildlife, and the mountains. “You land in this tranquil, quiet place and it’s all monks, monasteries, and snow leopards in the middle of the Himalayas,” says Amit Sankhala, our India expert. “If you’re trying to get away from everything for five or six days, be out in the wilderness, and have the most amazing scenery while you’re sipping your coffee and looking for snow leopards in the wild, this is your trip. It’s pretty surreal when you’re looking at that landscape, especially when the snow has fallen on the mountains—it feels like you’re on a different planet.” We sat down with Amit to chat about what it’s like to travel to Ladakh and go on a quest for the elusive snow leopards of the Himalayas…

Extraordinary Journeys: So what’s the journey like to get to India’s Ladakh region where you go on a snow leopard safari?

Amit Sankhala: You’ll land in Dehli , and then the next morning you’ll take an hour-long flight to the town of Leh where you’ll spend a couple of days acclimating to the altitude before heading up into the mountains to Hemis National Park. It’s the biggest town in Ladakh—the northern region of India in the Himalayas—with the most spectacular scenery. 

Thirty minutes into the flight you’ll have the most amazing view of the Himalayan landscape, and when you’re landing they even announce the fact that the aircraft gets quite close to the mountains (don’t be scared this is how we land here). It’s a military outpost—a most peaceful place, but a deployment point to Pakistan and China. The whole town used to cater to the military, but over time it’s also become a big tourist destination in the summer for Indians as well as a destination for big cat seekers in the winter.

EJ: Can you tell us a little bit about the acclimatization process for being at such high altitudes for the snow leopard safari?

AS: You’ll have to acclimatize for a day or two minimum in Leh because you are pretty much going from sea level to 3,400 meters. Basic acclimatization techniques are all you should expect. You need to take everything very slowly and you’ll get used to the air. At first, you’re going to feel like you’re getting tired fast, and maybe a little bit lightheaded because you’re getting less air. 

The first day needs to be easy and we plan it that way. You can walk slowly to the market and move around. If you’re climbing stairs, do it at half the pace you’d normally do (or take the elevator everywhere). You also can’t just lie there all day and do nothing, or sleep all day because you also need to get the blood flowing. Drinking lots of water and tea are also important. Plus, there are pills you can take that your doctor can recommend that help with acclimatization. The main thing is that you can’t be running around, picking up heavy cameras with long lenses, photographing things—you won’t know it’s going to hit you, but if you don’t go slowly, it will hit you and by then it’s too late.

We spend a couple of days in Leh, checking out the monasteries, palace, and local culture including bread-making demonstrations. If after two days you haven’t acclimatized well enough, we’ll spend an extra day in Leh or fly you back down (don’t worry, we’re always carrying oxygen tanks in just in case).

EJ: Are travelers allowed to visit inside of the monasteries in Ladakh and if so what’s that experience like?

AS: On day two or three of the trip, we make a point to go to the Thikse Monastery (located on top of a hill in Thiksey approximately 12 miles east of Leh). It’s only possible to enter during the winter months when there are very few people visiting the region (in the summer thousands of people flock to Ladakh for vacation). In winter, nobody comes to see them so they don’t mind if you walk right into the monastery, where just eight to 10 monks are meditating or chanting, drinking their buttermilk tea—take photographs. There are a lot of kids, in this culture, and it’s a blessing and an honor for a child to become a monk. Some of the monasteries are hundreds of years old with beautiful inscriptions, and it’s very powerful. It’s amazing to be there because there’s nobody else there—just you in a monastery in the middle of the mountain.

EJ: Do you watch from afar or can you interact with the monks?

AS: You can interact with them. You’ll always have an interpreter with you, a Ladakhi guide, who is Buddhist and has an understanding of all the different kinds of Buddhist philosophies, and able to explain how everything works. After Dharamsala—where the Dalai Lama lives, a bit south of Ladakh—this is the biggest center of Buddhist monasteries anywhere in India . When the migration happened, in the war with China taking over Tibet, the Dalai Lama came to India, and India gave them refuge. Ever since all these monks have been situated here from Dharamshala. It also used to be a kingdom—the king of Ladakh still exists today—and has a palace as well, which you’ll visit in Leh.

EJ: So, once you’re up in the mountains what does a day of snow leopard tracking entail?

AS: By about 6:30 am, our scouts go to different strategic locations, and ridges where they’ve seen snow leopards previously. They are communicating with the scouts in other nearby villages via walkie-talkie. 

Travelers can also get up that early in the morning and head up to the top of the Snow Leopard Lodge to the lookout right above the rooms where the scouts will already be on watch. There is a great vantage point to check out what’s happening. Travelers can have their coffee, hot chocolate or tea delivered up there while the sun rises. The scopes are already set up to use. Breakfast is at around 8:30 am, and by 10 am there’s a briefing about what the plan for the day is, and what direction or valley you’re going to head based on the sightings. Once you’re out in the field, lunch is always hot and delivered to you wherever you are—no matter how remote the location. They’ll bring in tables, and chairs, and serve soups, biryani, and all types of Indian food. Then you continue tracking the leopards. You return to the lodge at around 4:30 pm or 5:00 pm, and then you’re inside for the night.

EJ: What’s the likelihood of seeing a snow leopard?

AS: Seeing a snow leopard of course is a big tick off the list for many people when they come. I would say about eight out of 10 of our small groups see snow leopards. It’s a pretty good ratio, sometimes you see them up close if there’s a kill, and sometimes you see them through a scope far away. There is a possibility you won’t see a snow leopard so you need to come with the expectation that this is a quest for a snow leopard and not like an African safari where you’re guaranteed to see a lion. For people that do see them, it’s the holy grail of cats. We have to set the expectation—you can’t come expecting to see a snow leopard. You have the best chances here, but there are no guarantees.

EJ: If you do find a snow leopard, what’s the experience like and how close can you get?

AS: It depends. If the snow leopard has had a kill it will stick around and you can get within a couple of hundred meters. But, it’s not like seeing a lion that comes right next to the vehicle. Most of the time you’ll see them through a scope, but it truly varies.

EJ: What kind of wildlife, apart from the elusive snow leopard, can our clients expect to see?

AS: When you go into snow leopard country, you’re not just going to see them. It’s a quest, taking you to the mountains with the most amazing scenery on earth (according to me, and I’ve traveled to over 60 countries). There is an opportunity to see so much life. People can expect to see Ibex, blue sheep, wolf, and fox. There’s also fantastic bird life: lammergeier, golden eagle, and if you’re lucky the ibisbill and the Himalayan snowcock. Earlier this year we had an amazing sighting of five wolves chasing away a snow leopard.

EJ: How physically demanding is this trip—does it require any hiking experience?

AS: The average age on this trip is 65-70 years old. We’re not expecting anyone to have trekking experience. If you’re that fit great, but you can be driven everywhere. The road conditions in Ladakh are excellent compared to the rest of India because there’s such a big military operation up there. The roads are always ready. 

 Sometimes we will walk when we get to a particular spot. You have to be able to do basic hikes. The amount of walking varies from day to day based on leopard sightings. If there’s hiking involved we’re gonna take it slow and we’ll have porters that will carry your gear. You can take it as slow or fast as you like—everyone will adjust. You’re not going to slow down a group because you’re slower, we have multiple guides so somebody will walk with you.

EJ: What if clients want to be more active or do some walking?

AS: Absolutely, it’s one of those things, the world is your oyster once you’re up in the mountains. You want to go for a hike, yes. You want to climb a mountain, sure. Multiple guides are always at the lodge. You can even decide one day to go for a hike, and you won’t miss out—when there’s a snow leopard sighting everyone is there.

EJ: Do you recommend planning a private adventure or joining a small group trip for a snow leopard safari?

AS: Generally, we try to run this expedition as a small group trip with six to eight people because it’s good to have more eyes out there when you’re looking for snow leopards. While we push people to join one of our small group departures, of course, you can book a private trip, alone, with your own guide and vehicle, but generally, all the activities at the camp are still done as a group.

If you have a family of four or five people with adult children or those in their teens, this could be a very cool trip for them. Once you’re there, you have six days totally disconnected from the world—you don’t have a phone connection, you don’t have a TV to watch, you don’t have any of that, so it’s nice to have good conversations in the afternoons and evenings. It’s always a good group of people because generally whoever picks a snow leopard safari is usually a well-traveled person.

EJ: What makes the original Snow Leopard Lodge so special?

AS: The Snow Leopard Lodge is a community-established, community-owned property—a community homestay so to speak. It’s just outside the national park, but there’s no boundary so there are snow leopards everywhere. It has nice rooms with attached bathrooms, but no running water. The food is nice, but you’re not eating a fancy dinner. Everything there is included, meals, guiding, and your vehicle. It’s sitting at 4000m. The guides and scouts at Snow Leopard Lodge are very well established after so many years.

EJ: How did the Snow Leopard Lodge go from being a single-room homestay to what it is today?

AS: Snow Leopard Lodge started out as a small homestay with one room, owned by one of Ladakh’s top snow leopard trackers Norbu and his wife Dolma. They would pile up six or seven clients in that room with a heater in the middle. One time he saw my big camera and said, ‘you have a big camera, you should give me your phone number,’ and I said why? Then he said, ‘The next time a snow leopard kills my yak, I’ll give you a call. Because he knew the pattern: once a snow leopard kills a yak, it’ll feed on it for four or five days. Then the wolves, fox, golden eagles, and more come. He knew exactly the pattern and how he could make money by showcasing it rather than killing the snow leopard. Back in the day, the ideal thing would’ve been to kill the snow leopard because suddenly he’s lost the only yak he has and it takes forever to get compensation from the government. Over time they brought in good servers, and good chefs, and then an investor came in with their expertise and showed the Norbu and Dolma how to work together with the community to turn it into the professional safari lodge that it is today.

EJ: Is there a focus on conservation?

AS: We highly support an organization up there called the Snow Leopard Conservancy. Before the pandemic, we generated over 40k towards the conservancy through tourism dollars, travel organizations, as well as a grant through the Adventure Travel Conservation Fund .

The villagers have the regular human-wildlife conflict that people face around the world. If you’re surviving on a particular yak, that is your livelihood. So if a snow leopard comes and hunts your yak, then what do you do? Those were the biggest issues. What the Snow Leopard Conservancy has been doing is building fences where all the livestock including sheep are kept inside.

One of the programs we focused on was teaching the monks about snow leopard conservation. Education is a big part of conservation, and all the villages come to the monasteries to hear the teachings. We went from monastery to monastery, educating them, which helped them value and understand why it is important to save snow leopards in the wild.

They’ve also helped to create the first homestays in Ladakh—where people can stay along the trekking routes in the summer. And that’s how Snow Leopard Lodge even started, we’d camp a few days and spend a few nights in a homestay to have an alternative income to farming in the winter.

EJ: There is some excitement around the new property that’s opening this November in the Ladakh region, LUNGMĀR, owned by Dorjay Stanzin and Abdul Rashid, famed conservationists and snow leopard trackers. Can you tell us a little bit about it and what clients can expect?

AS: The recently established LUNGMĀR is a remote bush camp style property at 3500m elevation. It’s in a completely different valley, and it has a different level of luxury. It’s fancy, compared to the other options in the region, and relative to where you are. The lodge has seven Kurkhang heated tents designed in a military style. The shared bathroom that you walk to (this is all valuable information when you’re going out at -10 degrees celsius and you have to dress up to go out). And inside the stone and wood building, they also have five ‘Predators Suites’ with attached bathrooms and hot running water. 

I see the Snow Leopard Lodge and LUNGMĀR as very two very different clientele. I don’t think one has more advantages over the other.

EJ: How would you define ‘luxury’ in snow leopard country?

AS: The fact that you have running water, hot showers, an attached en suite bathroom, gourmet meals, and rooms that are insulated—in snow leopard country is what we consider luxury.

EJ: How much time do you recommend spending in camp?

AS: An 11-day trip includes six nights at the lodge which includes five full days at the camp.

EJ: What’s the climate like?

AS: In the winter during snow leopard season it gets down to negative 5°C to -10°C (41°F to -14°F) at night time, but then you’re warm inside because it’s dark by 5 pm. Daytime is very pleasant from -2°C to 2°C (28.4°F to 35.6°F). It’s not bad if you’re wearing the right clothes.

EJ: What kind of clothing do travelers need to pack and wear?

AS: We recommend layers, rather than one big jacket because daytime is usually really nice with blue skies, but it can get windy in the hills. Touque, gloves, merino wool socks, a base layer, and a balaclava are essential. So is a good pair of ankle-height hiking boots, and a pair of snow paints.

Heaven, Peace, Silence, and Tranquility at one place? Come and spend a few hours at Pangong Lake in Ladakh! A pristine place in Ladakh marked by subtle to high peaks around, crystal blue waters and the vast expansion catches the eye so much, so long as if a magic is happening right in front of the eyes. Let our Ladakh holiday packages transport you to this mesmerizing destination, where nature's grandeur unfolds in every corner.Pangong Lake, also known as Pangong Tso, lies calmly at a breathtaking elevation of 14,270 feet. Interestingly, the lake is 12 km long and marks itself between the laps of India and China. Rather, 60% of the portion is stretching in the neighboring nation and this excites every traveler to be here.The surreal clean blue waters are actually brackish or salty in nature and this feature doesn’t let any aquatic life survive in the same. Moreover, the temperature range between -30 to -10 degrees make even this salty lake freeze with thick ice sheets, which is quite opposite in case of salt ridden water bodies.This picturesque landscape location enhances its beauty with the arrival of migrating birds every year and attracts many travelers in search of adventure, photographs, bird-watching and chilling experience. Pangong has another unique and catchy feature; when it acts like a chameleon and changes its color from blue to green to even grey at times. The brackish water of Pangong attracts the migratory birds every year during winters in Ladakh.

One of the most beautiful parts of the moonscapes of Ladakh, Nubra Valley is a deep-cut gorge created by the combined effects of Shyok and Nubra (Siachen) rivers. A high altitude cold desert, Nubra Valley is actually an extension of the Tibetan Plateau (Qing-Zang Plateau) that starts in China and extends up to Ladakh. This valley in the plateau separates the Ladakh Range from the Karakoram Range. But more than anything, Nubra Valley is the most beautiful region in all of Ladakh. Home to wonders like the Diskit Monastery,Hunder Sand Dunes, Samstanling Gompa, Yarab Tso Lake, and the villages of Turtuk and Panamik.Located about 160 km from Leh, the capital of Ladakh, Nubra Valley is a great attraction to all those who come here.

And while you are at it, take a short detour to the famous white sand dunes of Hunder. The shapes and forms that these dunes take during different times of the year mesmerize every visitor who comes here. To make it further interesting, there are the double-humped Bactrian Camels, offering rides through the dunes.And when it turns dusky, head to the Diskit Monastery and visit the towering statue of Maitreya Buddha which looks over the entire valley and blesses it for another day to come.Planning a Trip to Ladakh, Experience of Chadar Trek - The Frozen River Trek

Set high in the Himalayas in the far northeast of India, Ladakh is a hidden mountain kingdom. Known colloquially as Little Tibet, this remarkable region is packed with dramatic scenery, picturesque Buddhist monasteries and wonderfully welcoming people. It’s also the place to go in search of elusive snow leopards.

Ladakh is located in the remote Himalayas in northwest India.

The province is know colloquially as "Little Tibet" ...

... filled with active Buddhist monasteries.

It is widely considered to be the cooler, more out-of-the-way version of Nepal.

The province is centred on the modest capital of Leh ...

... but the real pleasure comes in exploring the remote valleys and mountains.

The main valley is centred on the upper reaches of the Indus River ...

... which provides impressive opportunities for white-water rafting.

The main activity is exploring the various small villages and monasteries, often on foot ...

... where you get the chance to meet so many lovely, welcoming people.

The best time of year to visit Ladakh is generally considered to be during the Apr-Oct summer ...

If you visit during the Nov-Mar winter, then the conditions are likely to be much more challenging ...

However, winter is the best time of year for viewing snow-leopards ...

... which are forced down into the lower valleys by the heavy snows at altitude.

The summer season does not coincide well with the climate in India, but the snow leopard season works well with tigers in Madhya Pradesh.

Ladakh is located in the far northwest corner of India, roughly 600km (360 miles) north of Delhi.

Hidden away high in the Himalayas, this remote area is the least inhabited part of India, with vast stretches of spectacularly empty mountain landscapes and just a few small settlements set deep within the dramatic river valleys.

Unlike the predominantly Muslim areas to the south and west, Ladakh has a very significant population of Buddhists. The presence of these people, along with their traditional architecture, has led to the area becoming known as Little Tibet.

Traditionally the people of these remote valleys have made a living from the trans-Himalaya trade routes between Tibet and Pakistan, but with the Chinese having closed the borders during the 1960s, the people have increasingly turned to tourism to make ends meet.

A defining characteristic of the area is the modesty of the people and the clever ways that they manage to get by on such scant natural resources. The indigenous culture has developed some interesting aspects in this regard, including polyandry (in which a woman marries all the brothers of a family in order to prevent land being subdivided between offspring), primogeniture (in which the eldest son inherits the whole estate of his father), khangbu (a little house into which a father and mother retire when their eldest son gets married and takes over the main house on a farm) and monasteries (which take large numbers into celibacy men and women),

The main town of Leh is the location of the main airport. Guests arriving here need to appreciate that they are at 3500 metres (11500’) and should take it easy for at least two full days in order to acclimatise to altitude, before undertaking any significant activity.

Leh is set in the valley of the River Indus, which carves its way through the territory and is home of the majority of the settlement and farmland. Beyond the valley the terrain becomes extremely mountainous and remote.

Ladakh is very much a frontier area. Ownership of much of the territory around here is disputed with Pakistan and China, so the Indian army retains a strong presence. Tourism is generally considered to be safe, but numbers remain low.

The main reasons to visit are to take in the wonderful and stark mountain scenery, to explore the Buddhist culture, to visit spectacular remote monasteries and to undertake day hikes and multiple-day treks through these high valleys. There are also opportunities for camel safari, mountain-biking and white-water rafting.

It’s also possible to encounter some rare and interesting wildlife. Topping the bill are snow leopards, which are extremely shy, but which can be encountered using a highly skilled group of mountain trackers.

Other animals include Tibetan wolves, brown bears, ibexes, bharals (blue sheep), shapos (wild goats), argailis (very rare wild sheep), chorus (Tibetan antelopes) and kyangs (Tibetan wild asses).

Altitude sickness

The inhabited parts of Ladakh are generally of altitude 3150-4000m (10350-13200'). This is pretty high, easily enough for most people to feel the effects.

Most visitors experience mild symptoms of altitude sickness, such as headaches and upset stomachs. These tend to start around 6 hours after arrival and ease down over the course of 24-48 hours.

It is very important to spend this time at lower altitudes, either staying in Leh or in one of the properties along the Indus River, during which time you should keep your activity to a minimum, refrain from taking any alcoholic drinks, take on plenty of water and regularly eat small easy-to-digest meals.

After that acclimatisation period, you should be good to continue more or less as normal, although you should always take care not to over-exert yourself.

Seasonality

The best time of year for general travel in the Ladakh area is generally considered to be during Apr-Oct, which is the summer season. Note that this is in contrast with most of the rest of India, which experiences its hot monsoon at this time.

By contrast, the best time for snow leopards is during the Nov-Mar winter season, when heavy snow at high altitudes forces the cats down into the valleys, making them a good deal more accessible.

Jun-Sep is the main summer season.

During Jun-Sep the daytime temperatures climb to around 24C/75F, whilst the nighttime low temperatures hold up around 10C/50F. Precipitation is usually very occasionally and usually falls as snow. Sunshine is around 8 hours per day (around 65% of daylight hours), meaning that skies are often clear. 

October is the transition period between the end of the mild summer and the start of the cold winter.

During October the daytime temperatures usually rise to around 15C/59F, whilst the nighttime low temperatures only fall to around -1C/30F. Precipitation is usually very occasionally and usually falls as snow. Sunshine is around 8 hours per day (around 75% of daylight hours), meaning that skies are often clear. 

If the weather becomes cold early, then the snow leopards may be forced down to lower altitudes and become more accessible.

Nov-Feb is the main cold winter season.

During Nov-Feb the daytime temperatures struggle up to around 4C/39F, whilst the nighttime low temperatures plunge to around -12C/10F. Precipitation is usually very occasionally and usually falls as snow. Sunshine is around 6 hours per day (around 55% of daylight hours), meaning that skies are often overcast.

The best period for snow leopards is the Nov-Mar winter season, when heavy snow at high altitudes forces the cats down into the valleys, making them a good deal more accessible.

Mar-May is the spring season, with conditions improving as the weeks pass.

During Mar-May the daytime temperatures can climb to around 10C/50F, whilst the nighttime low temperatures hold up around -1C/30F. Precipitation is usually very occasionally and usually falls as snow. Sunshine is around 8 hours per day (around 65% of daylight hours), meaning that skies are often clear.

The snow leopard season continues into March, but with increasing chances of the cats retreating into the high valleys, out of range.

Getting there

The Ladakh area can be accessed in a number of different ways …

The only viable option for most international travellers heading for Ladakh is to fly from Delhi to Leh (IXL). There are regular (usually daily) flights.

There are roads from Chandigarh, Shimla and Amritsar which lead up through the mountains to reach Ladakh, but these are tortuous and potentially dangerous routes which are only suitable if you are a very intrepid traveller and you have lots of time on your hands.

Where to stay

If you are intending to visit for snow leopards, then you need to visit during the Nov-Mar winter, staying mainly in the superb and very remote LungMar Camp, probably in combination with a relatively bland property in the less then totally attractive city town Leh.

If you are intending to visit Ladakh for the scenery, culture and outdoor activities, then you need to visit during the Apr-Oct summer, when a much wider range of accommodation opens up in the more remote and attractive villages ...

It appears to be connected to yahoo only; all other pages - on my end- are clear of it.

I can select another English version and the window disappears but I don't want Canadian or other English versions. It's very annoying.
