Hello, Namaskar, Adaab, Sat Sri Akal!

Join me for a scenic Leh to Darcha & Manali on a Less travelled Road which is a New Highway to Connect Ladakh and Himachal through winding mountain roads and No need to cross the several passes but the only pass which is Shinku La (Once the Shinku La Tunnel is built—likely by 2028 or 2029—we may no longer need to cross the Shinku La Pass. )

This journey takes us through the rugged terrain from Leh to Darcha via Nimmu and Padum. We stop at local roadside eateries to experience authentic mountain hospitality and capture the breathtaking views of this remote Himalayan route. If you are planning a Zanskar road trip or looking to explore the high-altitude passes of Ladakh, this vlog offers a clear look at the road conditions and landscape you can expect on this challenging drive.

Following the route from Nimmu to Padum, & then Padum to Darcha & Manali we get an up-close look at the infrastructure and natural beauty of this region. Whether you are prepping for a Himalayan road trip or just love mountain driving, watching this transit gives you a better understanding of the terrain.
