Embark on one of the world’s most spectacular high-altitude cycling journeys—from the lush valleys of Manali to the windswept landscapes of Leh, via the remote and mystical Zanskar Valley. This expedition is more than just a ride; it’s a passage through shifting worlds—verdant pine forests give way to stark, glacier-fed deserts, roaring rivers carve deep canyons, and snow-clad passes open to sweeping Himalayan panoramas.
Over the course of nearly two weeks, you’ll pedal across legendary mountain passes like Shinkula, Pensi La, Namika La, and Fotu La, stand before the majestic Drang-Drung Glacier, and roll alongside the mighty Indus and Suru Rivers. Each day reveals new wonders—ancient Buddhist monasteries clinging to cliffsides, traditional Zanskari villages where life has changed little over centuries, and vast open spaces where the silence is broken only by the wind and the sound of prayer flags fluttering.
This is a journey that demands both spirit and stamina, rewarding every push of the pedal with landscapes that feel almost otherworldly. It’s an immersion into the wild beauty, rich culture, and timeless rhythms of the Himalayas—a ride that will stay with you long after the last mountain pass is crossed.
