Ladakh has long been celebrated as a biker’s paradise, but over the years it has evolved into a destination that warmly welcomes all kinds of travelers, including solo female explorers seeking adventure, freedom, and meaningful connections. Curated exclusively for women, this all-girls Ladakh road trip is about conquering fears, embracing the unknown, and creating unforgettable memories with like-minded travelers.

This all-girls trip isn’t just about ticking destinations off a bucket list, it’s about truly experiencing Ladakh, one road and one moment at a time.

The adventure continues to the iconic Pangong Lake, where shimmering blue waters meet endless skies, followed by an unforgettable drive through the remote Changthang Valley, a region known for its stark beauty, rare wildlife, and nomadic charm. The expedition reaches its peak in Hanle, home to one of the world’s highest astronomical observatories, and culminates with the ultimate achievement of conquering Umling La, the highest motorable road on Earth.
In a nutshell, this all-girls Leh–Ladakh road trip is an empowering high-altitude expedition that blends adventure, resilience, and sisterhood. From peaceful stargazing nights in Hanle to adrenaline-pumping mountain passes and soul-stirring landscapes, this journey is designed for women who seek more than just travel—they seek transformation.

Here is everything you need to know about Leh Ladakh:
How to Reach Leh Ladakh
The Indian winter paradise of Ladakh is one of the most valued travel destinations for both nature lovers and thrill-seekers. Mountain bikers, trekkers, and hikers will love this spot. Ladakh, which is 9,845 ft above sea level, appears otherworldly with its surrounding peaks, valleys, ancient monasteries, and alpine lakes.
By Road - Despite its high elevation, major Indian towns like Srinagar in Jammu & Kashmir and Manali in Himachal Pradesh have good road connections to Ladakh. The fact remains, though, that individuals can only schedule their road travel during the first six months of the year because snowfall keeps the roads closed the rest of the time.
Biker favorite route 1 is from Manali to Leh. The Manali to Leh route is superior, more practical, and has some of the nicest views along the way. Leh is around 490 kilometers from Manali.
Route 1- Manali-Rohtang-Gramphu-Kokhsar-Keylong-Jispa-Darcha-Zingzingbar-Baralacha La-Bharatpur-Sargu-Gata Loops-Nakee La-Lachulung La-Pang-Tanglang La-Gya-Upshi-Kuru-Leh
Route 2: The roadway between Srinagar and Leh is less often traveled.
Srinagar – Sonmarg – Zozi La – Drass – Kargil – Mulbek – Lamayaru – Saspol – Leh
By Air - Air travel is one of the most convenient and pleasant methods to go to Ladakh. There are several airlines that offer direct flights to Ladakh. The Kushok Bakula Rimpochee Airport in Leh is the closest airport to the city.
Best Time to Visit Leh Ladakh
The best time to visit Leh Ladakh is from May to September. The beautiful weather and open roads to Leh make it easier to get there during this time of year.
Summer (May to September): With its pleasant temperatures and beautiful skies, summer is Leh Ladakh's busiest travel season. Visitors can experience the region's breathtaking landscapes since the majority of the routes, including high-altitude crossings and famous lakes like Pangong Tso and Tso Moriri, are open. Adventure seekers come from all over the world to participate in outdoor activities like white-water rafting, trekking, and camping because of the perfect weather.
Spring (Late April to Early May): As temperatures progressively rise and the snow starts to melt, spring signals the start of the tourist season. With snow-capped peaks in the background, the landscape comes to life with flowering flowers, even though certain higher passes may still be unreachable early in the season. Less people visit around this time, so it's ideal for individuals looking for a peaceful experience.
Autumn (late September to October): With crisper weather and colorful scenery, autumn showcases Leh Ladakh in all its splendor. Winter is coming, but the days are still nice and the nights are starting to grow chilly. Even while certain tourist attractions might close by the end of October, most attractions are still open, and there are comparatively fewer people around, making it a great time for a quiet vacation.
Winter (November to April): Because of the intense cold and a lot of snowfall, which cause road closures, particularly in higher-altitude places, winter is the off-season for tourists in Leh Ladakh. Snow, however, offers special chances for those seeking adventure, such as going on snow trekking and attending customary celebrations like Losar. Even if there aren't as many amenities available, visiting Leh Ladakh in all of its icy beauty may be an unforgettable experience.
The Best Places to Visit in Ladakh
Nubra Valley - Nubra, a deep gorge created by the Shyok and Siachen Rivers, is without a doubt one of the top tourist destinations in Ladakh. In addition to being the starting point for some of the highest regions, such Siachen Glacier, it is also the location of the hot springs at Panamik settlement, the old monasteries, the sand dunes of Hunder, and the settlement split along a boundary.
Pangong Tso - One of the most well-liked and fantastic locations to visit in Ladakh is Pangong Lake, which is the highest saltwater lake in the world. Several scenes from the films 3 Idiots, Jab Tak hai Jaan, and many more were filmed there as well.
Lamayuru - Tradition has it that the Yuru Gompa, commonly referred to as the "eternal monastery," was the first Bon Monastery to be built in Ladakh.
Shanti Stupa - Ladakhi and Japanese Buddhists collaborated to construct the Shanti Stupa. This white-domed structure, perched atop a hill, is a popular tourist destination in Ladakh and is said to contain Buddha relics.
Khardung La Pass - One of the highest motorable passes in the world, the Khardung La Pass serves as a gateway to Ladakh's Nubra and Shyok Valleys.
Magnetic Hill - Magnetic Hill is a picturesque and captivating route that runs next to the Sindhu river. When you park your car in the designated white box on the road, the vehicle will begin to ascend at a rate of twenty kilometers per hour on its own. The phenomenon piques travelers' curiosity and is the subject of numerous mythology.
Tso Moriri - Tso Moriri is undoubtedly at the top of the list when it comes to Ladakh tourist destinations. Tso Moriri, the region's largest lake, is a lesser-known paradise hidden among Ladakh's high mountains. Measuring around 26 km in length and 8 km in width, it's one of the region's hidden treasures!
Diskit Gompa - One of the main draws for tourists visiting Nubra Valley is the 106-foot-tall Maitreya Buddha statue, which stands guard over the Shyok River. It was constructed to uphold the ideals of harmony and serenity as well as to keep evil out of Diskit Village.
Hanle - Hanle, another breathtakingly gorgeous location in Ladakh, is literally heaven for all astronomy enthusiasts. Situated around 250 kilometers from Leh on the historic India-Tibetan trade route, it is the site of the Indian Astronomical Observatory and one of the oldest monasteries constructed in the Indo-Chinese style.
Turtuk - Located at the northernmost point of Nubra beside the Shyok River, Turtuk is the final settlement situated in the Baltistan region along the boundary between India and Pakistan. For the Indian Army, this region is crucial since it serves as the entrance to Siachen Glacier. One of the best spots to visit in Ladakh is its apricot-laden orchards, lush plains, pure river banks, and captivating history.
Umling La - The world's highest motorable pass, Umling La, has been built by BRO (Border Roads Organization), surpassing national expectations once again and surpassing Khardung La and Mana Pass in Uttarakhand. Constructed as part of "Project Himank," the 19,300-foot road trip is sure to leave you feeling amazed, ecstatic, and full of adrenaline.

I recently went to Winter Spiti Valley trip with JustWravel which ended up being more as a trip with best friends. JustWravel had everything sorted for us be it transportation, safety, constant checkups, personalised care , accommodation, food and everything was super comfortable and amazing.
Then it comes to the best part of this trip our trip captains - Abhishek and Ramneek
He treated us like their own brother from day one and made sure all of us are having the time of our lives. They had constant checkups to ensure all of us are doing great physically. They had good knowledge about the place and shared the same with us as well.
I would surely plan my next trip with JustWravel.
I would like to mention an instance: I forgot my bag in the Volvo bus and there was nothing important in that bag but our captains still went out of their way to ensure that I got my bag safely.
