In order to enjoy this journey to the fullest and return home safe, there are several things that you need to make yourself aware of beforehand. This is where having complete knowledge comes in handy. This was the idea behind putting together this Manali Leh Highway Travel Guide.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Careful planning based on complete knowledge is what will see you completing the journey without any unforeseen events; events that may land you in trouble.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I remember the first time I visited Ladakh a decade ago. I spent several weeks just reading and gathering as much knowledge as I could; regarding each and every place I wanted to visit. Still, something totally unexpected happened that I did not foresee. It resulted in me and my fellow traveler spending the night on the road in the blistering cold, in the middle of nowhere.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This only happened in situations and areas that I had no knowledge of. Had I known better, we never would have landed in such trouble.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_80 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-6a09213b1e8ae\" 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-6a09213b1e8ae\"  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-leh-highway-travel-guide\/#Manali_Leh_Highway_Travel_Guide\" >Manali Leh Highway Travel Guide<\/a><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-3' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/manali-leh-highway-travel-guide\/#_Manali_to_Leh_%E2%80%93_Route_Explanation\" >\u00a0Manali to Leh &#8211; Route Explanation<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/manali-leh-highway-travel-guide\/#Tourist_Places_on_Manali_Leh_Highway\" >Tourist Places on Manali Leh Highway<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/manali-leh-highway-travel-guide\/#Hotels_Guest_Houses_and_Camp_Sites_on_Manali_Leh_Highway\" >Hotels, Guest Houses, and Camp Sites on Manali Leh Highway<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/manali-leh-highway-travel-guide\/#Best_Time_to_Travel_From_Manali_to_Leh\" >Best Time to Travel From Manali to Leh<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-6\" href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/manali-leh-highway-travel-guide\/#Minimum_Days_required_for_Manali_to_Leh_and_an_ideal_Itinerary\" >Minimum Days required for Manali to Leh and an ideal Itinerary<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-7\" href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/manali-leh-highway-travel-guide\/#Available_modes_of_transport_on_Manali_Leh_Highway\" >Available modes of transport on Manali Leh Highway<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-8\" href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/manali-leh-highway-travel-guide\/#How_to_deal_with_altitude_sickness_while_traveling_to_Ladakh\" >How to deal with altitude sickness while traveling to Ladakh?<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Manali_Leh_Highway_Travel_Guide\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Manali Leh Highway Travel Guide<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Out of the two roads leading to Ladakh, the Manali Leh highway has always been the more preferred one and also the more challenging one. The majority of the people traveling to Ladakh will choose to reach Leh via Manali and return via Srinagar.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Because of this very reason, the Manali Leh highway becomes the road that gets the traveler ready for the journey ahead. Hence, preparing yourself well for the Manali Leh highway becomes of utmost importance.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Spread over this blog are several articles that I wrote regarding taking a journey from Manali to Leh. This travel guide is an effort to consolidate all those articles on one page. Going through these articles will not only make you aware of the road but also of the challenges you may face.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/manali-leh-highway-travel-guide-2.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-32095 size-full\" title=\"Manali Leh Highway Travel Guide\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/manali-leh-highway-travel-guide-2.jpg\" alt=\"Manali Leh Highway Travel Guide\" width=\"1000\" height=\"662\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/manali-leh-highway-travel-guide-2.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/manali-leh-highway-travel-guide-2-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/manali-leh-highway-travel-guide-2-768x508.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/manali-leh-highway-travel-guide-2-780x516.jpg 780w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/manali-leh-highway-travel-guide-2-585x387.jpg 585w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/manali-leh-highway-travel-guide-2-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Manali Leh Highway Road Map<\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You can get a map of the route from <strong><a title=\"Permalink to Manali to Leh Road Map With Distance\" href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/manali-leh-highway-road-map\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Manali to Leh Road Map With Distance<\/a>. <\/strong>Posted at this link below is a complete road map of Manali to Leh.
