How this overland route works
This is a point-to-point road journey through Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh, not a circular Kashmir-only holiday. The route typically uses the Srinagar side in summer, crosses Zoji La, then continues through Kargil and Ladakh before ending at Leh Airport. Because of altitude, the itinerary includes a rest day in Leh before moving to Nubra and Pangong.
- Start: Srinagar Airport
- End: Leh Airport
- Travel style: private cab road tour
- Best suited for: travellers who want the full overland drive
What to know before booking
This route depends on weather and highway access, especially across Zoji La and Chang La. The itinerary is best for summer travel, when the road to Leh is usually open and lake nights are manageable with warm layers. Because high altitude can affect some travellers, keep the acclimatisation day in Leh and avoid heavy activity on arrival.
- Carry warm clothing even in summer
- Keep travel insurance for high-altitude travel
- Follow the driver’s advice on rest and hydration
