Pack in loads of grit, determination and a can-do attitude on the trip
From spiritual upliftment visiting the monasteries to a test of endurance, physical stamina, Ladakh/Leh is surely a holiday destination for the brave hearted.
An untouched canvas, this barren beauty in pastel shades of yellow, browns and red isenough to absorb anyone into its fold. It is nature's raw power at its best.
Since time immemorial, humans have always tried to prove they are one up on nature. Same rule applies to Ladakh as well. The landscape inspires visitors to overcome the difficult terrains trekking, hiking, climbing the mountains, rafting, cycling to see the world beyond the high peaks and passes. It surely gives a boost to your ego when you discover places enroute. Feels like another Christopher Columbus in the making!
It is also a place where you can learn more about a different culture of the world. Share some time with a local and learn more about this place almost cut off from the rest of the civilized world. Greet and win them over with a Ju-Leh! a multipurpose Ladakhi word that stands for hello, bye-bye, how are you? Come in etc. etc.
