The Manali-Leh Highway gives travellers the excitement of serene adventure and blissfulness. The sinuous road goes through five high altitude passes. The place seems deserted by the mortals and Heaven-like. Natural beauty abounds here. Don’t expect any service station or petrol pumps after Keylong. But as far as the scenic beauty is concerned, it is a world of its own with beige soil, sporadic greenery, and clear rivulets. The 13,000 ft. high road is open from the month of June to mid-October.

The Lahaul - Spiti route makes for a pleasant drive. Lahaul is situated amidst a mass of high mountains and cascading glaciers. Chandra and Bhaga rivers originate at Baralacha La and flow through the valleys named after them. This place is located at the crossroads of Manali-Leh and Lahaul - Spiti. Witness the beauty of dune-like innumerable hillocks interspersed with green fields and snow-capped peaks. The valley is perched at an altitude of 2,745-metre. You can expend your vacations as summer is cool and pleasant here. Visit the valleys from July to September.

The Jeep safari will take you into the region of religious shrines. The Himalayas have always been associated with the Indian culture since history was written. The region is replete with the most revered Hindu shrines. Visit the holy shrine of Badrinath in the comfort of your jeep. The white snow blanket over the hills and plateaus inspires awe and the extensive valleys offer a great view. You can also visit Auli, one of the few places known for winter sports. It has a cable car service and you can enjoy a jeep safari from May to October.
