Manali to Leh travel time depends on how you are traveling and how many days you have in hand. The highway can in fact be covered even in 1 day as well but the minimum time you should spend here is 2 days. A recommended period of time to actually enjoy the journey is 3 days.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Let me explain. If you travel in 1 day then you are just rushing through the journey. There will absolutely no time for sightseeing and you will suffer from AMS as well.\u00a0In 2 days, you will have some time for sightseeing but the journey on both days will still be long. Chances of altitude sickness will also be there.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But traveling in 3 days ensures sufficient breaks, involves plenty of sightseeing, and allows the body time to acclimatize. Any more than that really is a luxury. In this post, I will talk in detail about Manali to Leh travel time and also suggest an example of an itinerary.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_83 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Quick Navigation<\/p>\n<label for=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-6a155e2eb0202\" class=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-label\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999999;color:#999999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999999;color:#999999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/label><input type=\"checkbox\"  id=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-6a155e2eb0202\"  aria-label=\"Toggle\" \/><nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/manali-to-leh-travel-time-itinerary\/#Manali_to_Leh_Travel_Time_Ideal_Itinerary\" >Manali to Leh Travel Time &amp;

I am not really sure who coined this term but it is 100% accurate. This option is quite common among the locals here or people who are in a rush to reach Leh.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The only way it can be completed is by getting aboard a shared taxi. It is neither possible nor recommended for a tourist to drive straight from Manali to Leh in one day on their own. However, the local taxi drivers here do that on a regular basis.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This journey starts sometime at <span data-term=\"goog_2102383279\">midnight<\/span> from Manali from where you will be continuously traveling for the next 16-18 hours, reaching Leh by the next day evening. It will cost you anywhere between Rs. 2000 to Rs. 2500 per person for a shared cab.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If it was me, I would simply call it a &#8216;bone-breaking run&#8217;. You will be stuffed in a shared taxi with 7-8 other people (depending on which car it is) and will be traveling straight with breaks limited only to answer the nature call.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">HRTC in fact also started a bus a few years ago that completed this <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/manali-to-leh-one-day-bus-service\/\">journey in 1 day<\/a><\/strong>. It remained operational for that 1 year but was not re-introduced the next year. There is a high chance that it may start running again.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pros_and_Cons\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Pros and Cons<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The only upside to this is that you will reach Leh in a single day but there are several severe downsides. The first and foremost is that you practically miss everything that you came to Manali Leh highway for. There is no time to enjoy the vistas and gaze upon the natural beauty of the region.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You will only just be sitting inside a moving car and looking out of the window which I do not think is a fun idea if it is going to last 16-18 hours.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The second and more serious issue will be acute mountain sickness which you are bound to suffer from if you take your body to such extreme heights in a matter of hours. For those taxi drivers and locals, it doesn\u2019t matter because for them it is an everyday routine.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But for a tourist like us, it can cause some serious problems.

No matter how you are traveling, whether it is a motorcycle or a car or if you are using public transport like a Bus, you can very easily reach Leh from Manali in 2 days. There are several variations of this plan depending on how you are traveling.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"By_HRTC_Bus\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>By HRTC Bus<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you are traveling in a state-run bus, then you will start from Manali on day 1 and will break the journey at Keylong for the night. On day 2, you will start early from Keylong and reach Leh by evening.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"By_Self-Owned_Vehicle\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>By Self-Owned Vehicle<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you are traveling in a self-owned vehicle or a private taxi, you can choose to stay for the night at three different places. This will depend on how early you started from Manali and which place is as per your taste. I will list these places down below. This also applied to people traveling by private taxi.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Keylong<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The only upside of staying at Keylong is that it has multiple choices in terms of accommodation. There are several hotels and guest houses here that can fit into any budget.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Running hot water, good food are some of the other comforts that only Keylong will offer on the Manali Leh highway.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The downsides however are that it is a bit closer to Manali. This means that if you stayed here, then you will have to start really early from Keylong on Day 2 in order to make it to Leh in time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Secondly, It is really a town now and not that scenic, to be honest. So it may disappoint some people in terms of sightseeing on a picturesque Manali Leh highway.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Jispa\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Jispa<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This is my favorite place to stay. A small village on the road, barely 20-30 houses on the banks of River Chandrabhaga amidst the mighty Himalayas. The downside however is a limited choice of accommodation. For more details, please take a look at <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/jispa-to-sarchu\/\">How to Plan a Trip to Jispa<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Jispa is at a distance of about 30 km from Keylong. So if you stayed here, make sure that you leave as early as you can in order to make it to Leh in time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Mornings will be cold but you got to make sure that you hit the road by the first light of the day. Do not also take breaks too often or you will be completing the last lap of your journey to Leh in total dark.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/manai-to-leh-travel-time-6.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-32069 size-full\" title=\"sarchu\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/manai-to-leh-travel-time-6.jpg\" alt=\"sarchu\" width=\"1000\" height=\"662\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/manai-to-leh-travel-time-6.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/manai-to-leh-travel-time-6-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/manai-to-leh-travel-time-6-768x508.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/manai-to-leh-travel-time-6-780x516.jpg 780w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/manai-to-leh-travel-time-6-585x387.jpg 585w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/manai-to-leh-travel-time-6-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sarchu\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Sarchu<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I will mention Sarchu in the list but it is not a place that I would recommend staying at. The only upside of staying at Sarchu is that the hours of the journey get divided equally between Day 1 and Day 2.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is like the center point of Manali Leh highway and the distance on both sides, towards Manali and Leh, is almost equal. So you do not end up driving for way too long on either of the two days.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There are several downsides, however. The first and the foremost is that the high chance of suffering from Acute mountain sickness. Sarchu is at a height of 4,290 m (14,070 ft) from sea level whereas Manali is at a height of 2,050 m (6,726 ft).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So if you start from Manali in the morning and plan to stay at Sarchu for the night, you will take your body to more than double the height in a matter of few hours. Because of this, you will definitely suffer from altitude sickness in Sarchu. As a matter of fact, the majority of the people who stay here end up having a difficult night.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The second downside is that the only accommodation available is either chadar tents or campsites. There are no cemented hotels or guesthouses in Sarchu.<\/p>\n<p>You can read more on this topic at\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/keylong-or-jispa-or-sarchu-best-place-to-stay\/\">Keylong or Jispa or Sarchu \u2013 Which is the Best Place to Stay<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Pang<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Like Sarchu, even Pang does not come recommended for a night stay. Pang is at a height of 4,600 m (15,100 ft)from sea level, higher than even Sarchu. So you can rest assured that your night at Pang will be the most uncomfortable one of your entire life.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you go directly from Manali to Pang, you will torture your body and can forget about enjoying the journey at all. Pang is closer to Leh, merely a 6 hours journey at the most. So the only upside of staying here is that you will not have to travel much on Day 2.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">On Day 1 however, it will prove to be a really rushed and long journey. You will suffer from AMS once you get to Pang so a long and tiring day will end in an even tiresome night.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To summarize, for a 2 days trip on Manali to Leh route, you should either chose Keylong or Jispa for a night stay. Sarchu and Pang are best avoided. But if you do want to divide the journey equally and are ready to risk altitude sickness, you can stay at Sarchu as well.

This is beneficial in several ways. I always recommend giving this journey a minimum of 3 days if you really want to enjoy it. Below are a few points that you should consider,<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Less_tiring\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Less tiring<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This is the first and the foremost reason. You need to consider the fact that it is not your usual vacation. You will be traveling in extremely challenging conditions, away from civilization, away from basic amenities.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">All this is bound to take a toll on your body. A 3-day journey will ensure that you do not travel for long hours, do not rush and in the process do not tire yourself.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Better_planning\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Better planning<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you have 3 days in hand, you will be able to plan better for unseen events. There will be no rush and in case you run into trouble, you will have some time in hand to handle the situation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-pack\/\">Clothes for Ladakh Trip &#8211; What to Pack<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Enough_breaks\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Enough breaks<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">What is the point of traveling on the Manali Leh highway if you like a vista and cannot even stop for some time to enjoy it? The road you will be traveling on is filled with such mesmerizing beauty that you would want to stop at every turn. A 3 days journey will give you ample time to do that.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Enough_photography\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Enough photography<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Click all that you want. It doesn\u2019t matter if you are a photography enthusiast or just a cell phone photographer, you will have plenty of time to capture memories on your device.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Fewer_chances_of_AMS\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Fewer chances of AMS<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This will be the most important reason. The increase in height will be a little gradual and chances of suffering from AMS will reduce significantly.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Having said that, what will be an ideal itinerary for traveling on the Manali Leh highway in 3 days? Here is what I recommend.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Day 1 &#8211; Manali to Keylong\/Jispa <\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Of course, I would recommend staying in Jispa over Keylong. Take an early start from Manali as I am guessing that you will also want to include Rohtang Pass in your trip rather than traveling through the Atal Tunnel.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Day 2 &#8211; Keylong\/Jispa to Sarchu\/Pang<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I would suggest staying at Pang because it will reduce your travel time on the 3<sup>rd<\/sup> day. Starting from Pang in the morning by 7 will have you in Leh by a maximum of 3 pm, thus giving enough time for hotel hunt and settle down.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Do note though that if it is your first time at such a high altitude, then Pang is the place where you will most likely suffer from AMS. If that concerns you then you can consider staying at Sarchu however chances are that you will suffer AMS at Sarchu as well.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There is no set way to avoid it really. If you did not suffer from AMS at all, then you will be really lucky. All that you can do is be prepared, and do not exert yourself. If you were not at all feeling well while approaching Pang then do not stop here and continue all the way to Leh. If it got late, then you can look for a room in Karu or Upshi.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Day 3 &#8211; Sarchu\/Pang to Leh<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Start early from either of these places, take plenty of breaks and enjoy the journey. You will cross the magnificent More plains and also cross several <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/passes-on-manali-leh-highway-travel-guide-sightseeing\/\">high-altitude passes on Manali Leh Highway<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/manai-to-leh-travel-time-5.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-32068 size-full\" title=\"manali to leh travel time\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/manai-to-leh-travel-time-5.jpg\" alt=\"manali to leh travel time\" width=\"1000\" height=\"662\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/manai-to-leh-travel-time-5.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/manai-to-leh-travel-time-5-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/manai-to-leh-travel-time-5-768x508.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/manai-to-leh-travel-time-5-780x516.jpg 780w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/manai-to-leh-travel-time-5-585x387.jpg 585w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/manai-to-leh-travel-time-5-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Manali_to_Leh_in_4_Days\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Manali to Leh in 4 Days<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A 4 days journey on the Manali Leh highway is an extended and more relaxed version of 3 days journey. It is not really required as well. I would suggest that rather than spending 4 days on Manali to Leh, complete it in 3 days and use this extra day somewhere else in Ladakh.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">However, if you want to dedicate 4 days to get from Manali to Leh, then below is the itinerary you can follow.<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Manali to Keylong\/Jispa &#8211; Day 1<\/li>\n<li>Keylong\/Jispa to Sarchu &#8211; Day 2<\/li>\n<li>Sarchu to Pang &#8211; Day 3<\/li>\n<li>Pang to Leh &#8211; Day 4<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Manali_to_Leh_Cycling_Itinerary\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Manali to Leh Cycling Itinerary<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">What I stated above is if you are either riding a motorcycle or driving to Leh in a car. The itinerary will however change if you are planning to cycle on the route. Manali to Leh travel time on a bicycle, as you can guess, will be much longer.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Please know that I have just started to get into cycling and I am still limited to cycling around within the city. I am yet to take my bicycle out in the hills so my knowledge is severely limited in this aspect.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you are planning a bicycle trip on Manali Leh highway, I would assume that you are into cycling for long, which means that you know more about it than I do. I can only suggest an itinerary that you can follow.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This trip would require a minimum of 10 days including a day to reach Manali (by Bus or car of course).
