Srinagar Leh Highway Status 2024 – 2025

by Vargis.Khan

The current Srinagar Leh Highway status today is OPEN. Passenger vehicles and tourists can now cross Zojila Pass and travel between Srinagar and Kargil. Zojila Pass remains closed on Fridays for maintenance work. The road between Kargil and Leh is also open and mostly in good condition. The road to Zanskar Valley between Kargil and Padum is open as well.

To get the most recent updates, you can contact me on Instagram to chat with me or subscribe to my YouTube channel and ask a question there to get the latest status on the road. To organize your trip to Ladakh, book a taxi, rent a bike, or get the best hotel rates, you can contact Kunal @ 9910402252.

How to Plan a Trip to Ladakh in 2024

Other than knowing whether the road is open or not, there are several other things about the highway that you should be aware of in order to ensure that your trip remains safe and hassle-free.

Some of these details will include knowledge about the route, your accommodation choices, places on the way, and challenges that you may face. Please read How to Plan a Trip to Leh Ladakh – A Complete Travel Guide for more details.

Planning a Trip from Srinagar to Leh

It is not only about the Srinagar Leh highway opening time and the closing date but you should also be aware of the best time to be on the road. Travel too early or late in the season and you are risking ruining your entire trip.

If caught unaware of the situation ahead, you may get stuck somewhere or even turned back. I have covered some of these important aspects in the articles below and would encourage you to take a look at them.

Srinagar Leh highway condition

Below is the most latest update on the road conditions on the Srinagar Leh highway.

  • Srinagar to Sonamarg – Good
  • Sonamarg to Zojila Pass – Bad
  • Zojila Pass to Dras – Average
  • Dras to Kargil – Excellent
  • Kargil to Leh – Excellent

Srinagar Leh Highway in October

The status of the Srinagar Leh highway in October remains open. But a trip in the latter part of the month is never a good idea. It can snow anytime at Zoji La in October.

Though the road may remain open, it can temporarily be closed for a few days. The risk of driving on slippery stretches, of course, will remain in October.

Srinagar Leh Highway in April

Srinagar to Leh road status in April will entirely depend on how much it snowed and how fast BRO was able to clear the snow. Historically though, the road remains closed in the first part of the month and is only open after the 20th.

My advice would be to wait for the weather updates before finalizing your itinerary. Traveling in the first or second week of May will be a much better idea than in April.

Srinagar Leh Highway in May

Srinagar to Leh road condition in May is much better and stabilized as compared to April. It is among the best months to be traveling on the Srinagar to Leh road route. The weather will be pleasant and you will also get to see plenty of snow as well which is mostly all gone by May end.

Srinagar Leh highway in June

Srinagar Leh road’s current status in June is completely open and safe to travel on. This is the peak tourist season in Kashmir and Ladakh and another good month to be on the route.

Srinagar Leh highway in July and August

Both these months are the time of the monsoon season. Though it does not rain in Ladakh so much, it surely does in the Kashmir area. Floods, landslides, and incessant rains are normal occurrences in both these months.

Before you start your journey, please make sure you search for Srinagar to Leh road updates in terms of the weather ahead. Or you can just return to this page and look for updates.

Srinagar Leh highway in September

September is an awesome month for a trip to both Kashmir and Ladakh. The rains would be all gone but would have left plenty of greenery behind in Kashmir for you to enjoy. The barren landscape of Ladakh presents an amazing contrast of colors this month. The road will remain completely open and you are free to travel.

Is Srinagar Leh Road open?

No, Srinagar Leh Highway is closed at the moment.

When will Zojila Pass Open?

Zojila Pass is declared open by around the 15th of April each year. The road was declared closed in November due to fresh snowfall and will remain closed until April.

My wife and I are visiting India in Early September. We are adventurous travelers in our 70’s. We plan to first visit Srinagar then take a private taxi to Kargil, stay overnight, and get a Ladakh taxi just for us, (as you suggested) for the rest of the trip, taking 2 days. Could you give us some details on getting the Ladakh taxi in Kargil, where? the cost? Extra for driver overnight? Will he stop for photos when requested? What sights best to see in the 2 day trip? Where to stop for 2nd night. Thanks in Advance. Bob

Yes, the road will be open. Share cabs and buses will be tough for Alchi, Domkar etc. You will just get a direct bus from Srinagar to Kargil and Kargil to Leh. This trip can be planned better if you rent a private taxi or bike. Can you do that?

Vargis Bhai, is Ladakh travel allowed now, v 5 friends planning for 26th June 2021 from Srinagar – Leh – Manali? Any restrictions on vehicle movement? RT PCR not more than 96 hours seems to be mandatory?

Vargis.Khan June 12, 2021 - 11:41 pm

Abdul Bhai I will not recommend planning Ladakh right now, better to wait for a couple of months more and plan in September

– Day 2 Kargil to Leh visit magnetic hill, hall of fame and confluence point on the way back
– Day 3 Leh-Kardungla-Nubra valley. Stay at Hunder
– Day 4 Nubra Valley to Pangong via Shyok village. Stay at Pangong
– Day 5 Pangong to Leh. Stay at Leh
– Day 6 Leh to Tso moriri. Stay at Tso moriri
– Sep 17th Day 7 Tso moriri to Leh

Could you provide your opinion on this plan. Is it feasible? We are hoping that we can acclimatize during our trip to Kargil. Will that work?

Looking forward to your comments and suggestions

Thank you in advance

Baleno is good, you can plan the journey. Just be careful around water crossings due to low GC.
