How to Reach
Road:
There are two land routes to Ladakh: from Srinagar and from Manali. The J&K State Road Transport Corporation (J&K SRTC) operates deluxe and regular buses between Srinagar and Leh, with an overnight halt at Kargil. Taxis are also available at Srinagar and Leh for the journey.
Rail:
There is no rail head in Ladakh. Passengers will have to get off at Kalka station (Shimla), proceed to Manali via bus and then reach Leh by taking a taxi/bus from Manali.
Air:
There are regular flights to Leh from Delhi and Srinagar, and less frequently from Chandigarh and Jammu. However, as the weather is unpredictable, a two-three hour hold-up is normal, especially on the early morning departures. Opt for a window seat as there is a visual fiesta awaiting you.
