The Himalayas Adventure

THE HIGHEST PASS ON EARTH (18,300 ft)

The three highest roads on the planet all in one incredible trip.

Ladakh known as  “the last Shangri La”, is the most remote region of India.  Utterly barren, lonely, clean clear blue skies and mountain passes to die for including the world’s highest road, The Kardungla Pass at 18,300ft. 

This amazing trip covers 10 passes and 9 of them are over 4700 meters. The highest, at 5,615 is almost exactly 2/3 the height of Mount Everest and you’re free to ride it – no ice climbing here.
