connecting
people and cultures – inspiring journeys
sharing meaningful discoveries in Asia
The “Land of High Passes”, Ladakh is in the Indian administered region of Jammu and Kashmir
with a culture and history closely related to Tibet.
Travel into Ladakh is mostly only possible by air into Leh from Delhi.
Only during a short time in summer months are roads passable overland from either Srinagar in Kashmir, or the road from Manali- one of the highest passes on earth.
