#000000;\"><strong>Clothes to Pack for Ladakh Trip<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The good part when it comes to Ladakh is that irrespective of when you travel, you will surely need to pack woolen and winter clothing. It is a cold desert that you are heading to so you will have to pack for a winter-like climate even in the months of May and June.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The tricky part however is that temperatures in Ladakh fluctuate highly depending on the location and hour of the day. Nights can be extremely cold whereas days during summer can be pleasantly warm. Standing in the sun would make you look for shade and the moment you are in shade, it would make you want to step in the sun again.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is a place where you are likely to get sunburnt even in winter and would need a cold cream even in summer. Winters are a different story altogether at a whole another level when temperatures remain subzero throughout and you will have to remain in your Eskimo suit.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Hence packing the right type of clothes for Ladakh trip can be a little troublesome, especially if you were traveling on a motorcycle.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Also read: <a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/dealing-acute-mountain-sickness-ladakh\/\">How to Handle Acute Mountain Sickness in Ladakh?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_clothes_to_wear_in_Ladakh\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">What clothes to wear in Ladakh<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Most of the tourism in Ladakh happens in the months of June till September; when both the highways from Srinagar and Manali remain open. The weather during this time is pleasant enough. While nights will remain to be quite cold, it is very rare that you will experience extreme temperatures.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The kind of clothes you carry at this time will be a lot different than what you will if you are traveling from October to May. Let us take a look at a monthly comparison.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-to-wear-in-ladakh.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-28006 size-full\" title=\"clothes to wear in ladakh\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-to-wear-in-ladakh.jpg\" alt=\"clothes to wear in ladakh\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-to-wear-in-ladakh.jpg 800w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-to-wear-in-ladakh-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-to-wear-in-ladakh-200x150.jpg 200w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-to-wear-in-ladakh-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-to-wear-in-ladakh-585x439.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"In_Summer\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">In Summer<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you are planning a trip to Ladakh in summer, then the trick is to pack clothes that can be worn in layers. What is means is that rather than carrying 2 heavy woolens, carry 4 lighter ones with plenty of cotton clothes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Temperatures in Ladakh fluctuate and remaining in heavy woolens at all times will be quite difficult during summer. During the day, you will walk around wearing just a T-Shirt and Trouser but the moment the sun goes down, you will be reaching out for a jacket.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also Read: <a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/traveling-to-ladakh-with-children\/\">How to Plan a Trip to Ladakh With Children<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The advantage of layered clothing is that you can just keep putting on more clothes if you are feeling cold and lose some clothes in case you start to feel warm. Carry multiple layers in form of cotton T-Shirts, thermals, light woolens, and windproof jackets and you will be just fine.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-1.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-27171 size-full\" title=\"clothes for ladakh\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-1.jpg\" alt=\"clothes for ladakh\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-1-200x150.jpg 200w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-1-585x439.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"In_Winter\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">In Winter<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A winter trip to Ladakh will have you facing sub-zero temperatures so prepare accordingly. Carry a lot of thermals, heavy woolens, a windproof jacket, waterproof shoes, insulated socks, woolen monkey cap, and sunglasses are a must. It is not only the night but days too will remain extremely cold so you must keep yourself warm and comfortable at all times.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">From November to March, you must pack heavy woolens and prepare for extreme temperatures. Thermals are a must for these months.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"In_Monsoon\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">In Monsoon<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In Monsoon season, you should pack clothes that can dry faster, like polyester. June till August sees pleasant weather when you can get away with light woolens and windproof jackets.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Do not carry any heavy clothes and opt for the light summer ones. Look for a jacket that is waterproof as well. The trick will again be to pack clothes in layers but opt for stuff that is either water-resistant or will not take too long to dry. If it was not too much trouble, bring an umbrella as well.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Ladakh is in a rain shadow area which means that it either does not rain here at all or rains very less. Global warming however changed things significantly. I was once stuck in <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/leh-nubra-valley-travel-guide\/\">Nubra Valley<\/a><\/strong> for 3 days because a sudden rainfall washed away an entire section of the road near Khardung La. Then there was also the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/2010_Ladakh_floods\">cloudburst in Ladakh in 2010<\/a> <\/strong>that killed hundreds, remember? On top of it, the route you will take to get here from <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/srinagar-to-leh-highway-guide\/\">Srinagar<\/a><\/strong> or <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/manali-leh-highway-guide\/\">Manali<\/a><\/strong> receives heavy rain each year.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Clothes_for_Ladakh_Bike_Trip\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Clothes for Ladakh Bike Trip<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Now let us talk about how your packing will be if you were traveling by bike, which is always a preferred mode of travel for Ladakh. By road, Ladakh remains accessible only from late May to early October (most of the time) so you do not need to bring heavy woolens. That you cannot pack anyway because riding a bike on such tricky roads while you were wearing heavy woolens will become difficult.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For your bike trip, pack your regular cotton clothes and pairs of jeans\/trousers. Match it with inners\/warmers\/thermals and a heavy windproof jacket.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-7.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-27177 size-full\" title=\"clothes for ladakh bike trip\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-7.jpg\" alt=\"clothes for ladakh bike trip\" width=\"800\" height=\"530\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-7.jpg 800w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-7-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-7-768x509.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-7-780x516.jpg 780w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-7-585x388.jpg 585w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-7-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Lower_Body\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Lower Body<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Find one trouser or a Jeans that is a little thick and is your least favorite. This will become your riding trouser. Wear this every day as you ride because there is no point in getting all your trousers dirty. Your T-Shirt \/ Shirt will get protected by the jacket but nothing is going to save the trouser. It is bound to get extremely dirty. If you bought a riding gear that included the pants then you do not have to find jeans of course.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Every morning, put on a warmer first and then wear your riding jeans on top of it. When you reach your destination, change into a clean pair of trousers. This will save you the hassle of packing too many trousers for the trip. My last ride to Ladakh was just in one pair of jeans, a few pajamas, and shorts.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I have covered the shoes part later in the article.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Also Read <a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/ladakh-checklist-things-to-carry-for-ladakh-trip\/\">List of Things You Must Carry for Ladakh Trip<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Upper_Body\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Upper Body<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You will need to wear a warmer first. The second layer will be your regular T-Shirt or Shirt. On top of both, wear a heavy jacket that is warm, windproof, and waterproof as well. A down jacket will be the best for this purpose.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In case you do not have one already or could not find a suitable one, buy it from Manali. If you have good negotiation skills, you can easily get a good deal over there. From my own personal experience, those jackets are quite good and will last for a few years. All my riding jackets so far have been bought from Manali only.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">While you were looking for a jacket, find one that goes all the way up to the neck. That way, you can wear raise it to the neck and then bring down your helmet on it. This will protect your neck as well as block any air from entering the helmet.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Gloves will be the most important part of the packing. Trust me, you can ride in any kind of condition but you simply cannot go even a kilometer if your fingers or nails were freezing. Find gloves that are comfortable, waterproof, and windproof.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Also Read: <a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/obtaining-ilp-for-ladakh\/\">How to Obtain Inner Line Permit for Ladakh?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Clothes_to_Pack_while_Traveling_by_Car\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Clothes to Pack while Traveling by Car<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you were traveling by car, then you can just wear the clothes that you are most comfortable in and carry a few warm jackets or woolens. While you are in the car, light woolens will do. When you are out sightseeing in the evening or morning, a heavy jacket, cap, muffler, and gloves will be needed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Try not to switch on the heater while you were driving in Ladakh. You will run the risk of suffering from altitude sickness if you do. Rather, wear some light woolens and keep the window down slightly to keep circulating the air.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-2.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-27172 size-full\" title=\"ladakh car trip\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-2.jpg\" alt=\"ladakh car trip\" width=\"800\" height=\"399\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-2.jpg 800w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-2-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-2-768x383.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-2-585x292.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Clothes_for_a_Ladakh_Trip_by_Flight\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Clothes for a Ladakh Trip by Flight<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you were traveling by Air, then just follow the tips that I shared above depending on different seasons. If you are catching a flight to Leh in summer, plenty of cotton clothes and a couple of light jackets is all that you need.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">However, if you intend on hiring a motorcycle in Leh, you will again have to carry a down jacket, or you can also rent one in Ladakh. If you were catching a flight in winter, you will have to bring heavy woolens.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_kind_of_shoes_to_wear_in_Ladakh\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">What kind of shoes to wear in Ladakh<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Let us also briefly take a look at the kind of shoes you should pack. There are four factors that will decide and define your packing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If traveling by car of flight for a regular vacation, just pack your regular sports shoes. That will suffice. If traveling in winter, match those with woolens socks. It will add an extra layer of protection.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If traveling by bike, just bring your normal sports shoes. If you were in boots, find one that will not get ruined by water. As an accessory, pack a pair of rubber sandals like in the picture below. When you are at a water crossing, stop for a minute, remove and secure your shoes, wear these rubber sandals, and cross.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/rubber-sandals.jpeg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-27165 size-full\" title=\"shoes to pack for ladakh\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/rubber-sandals.jpeg\" alt=\"shoes to pack for ladakh\" width=\"200\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There will be three benefits of this. The first is that your shoes will not get wet. So you will not have to worry about bringing too many shoes or spend money on buying new waterproof or riding boots. Second is that since these are rubber sandals, it will dry within seconds. There will be no hassle of putting wet sandals back in the bag. The third is that since it covers your entire foot, you will not risk getting hurt while crossing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you were planning to go on a trek, like Stok Kangri, you need to bring good trekking boots with a solid grip.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you were traveling in the winter season, you will have to pack shoes that are ankle length, can protect your feet well, and keep the snow out as well.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/stok-kangri-summit\/\">Stok Kangri Trek in Ladakh &#8211; On top of the World<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Gloves_for_Ladakh\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Gloves for Ladakh<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In winters, carry both a light pair of gloves and a heavy thicker one. That way, you can put on the lighter ones first and then the heavy ones to ensure that your hands remain warm. For summer, carry a thick windproof one if you are riding a motorcycle. If you are in a car or catching a flight, a nice pair of woolen gloves will do.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Clothes_for_a_Camping_Trip\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Clothes for a Camping Trip<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you intend to go camping on your own, you will need woolens or warm thermals and a really good sleeping bag for the night. If you are however staying at a campsite, then you do not have to bother carrying anything extra just for camping because all the campsites provide good enough beds and blankets to keep you comfortable at night.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Also Read:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/camping-in-ladakh-preparations-precautions\/\">Camping In Ladakh \u2013 Self Camping &amp; Camp Sites<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Other_Tips\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Other Tips<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Always keep your woolens or Jackets handy. Even if you are going out for a walk in the afternoon, carry your jacket along even if you do not feel like wearing it.<\/li>\n<li>Carry full sleeve T-shirts if you can because they will also help you fight the sun when you do not have your jacket on in the sun. As I mentioned, Sun is quite harsh in Ladakh, and getting a serious tan or even sunburn is quite easy.<\/li>\n<li>Carry warm woolens socks. Carry a few pairs if you are riding a motorcycle so that you have enough socks to change in case the ones you are wearing get wet at water crossings.<\/li>\n<li>A muffler will come in real handy so it is better to carry one.<\/li>\n<li>Carry a Monkey cap or Balaclava. It is a must if <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/ladakh-winter-travel-guide-ideal-itinerary\/\">traveling in winter<\/a><\/strong>. In summer, it can be helpful when you are taking that evening stroll and want to sit around the bonfire at night.<\/li>\n<li>Carry a regular cap or Sun hat for day to protect your face against the sun.<\/li>\n<li>Sunglasses and it is a must again for winters. The glare of the sun on the snow can be quite harsh for the eyes.<\/li>\n<li>Carry a sunblock lotion with the highest SPF.<\/li>\n<li>Do not even think about carrying shorts, mini-skirts, sleeveless clothes, or even high heels for that matter.<\/li>\n<li>Do not carry tight clothes as well. You will be putting on layers of clothes in both summer and winter and tight clothes will become a big problem if you have several layers of them on you.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-5.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-27175 size-full\" title=\"ladakh car trip\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-5.jpg\" alt=\"ladakh car trip\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-5.jpg 800w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-5-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-5-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-5-585x390.jpg 585w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/clothes-for-ladakh-trip-5-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_to_wear_in_Ladakh\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">What to wear in Ladakh<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To close the article, let me give a monthly breakdown of clothes to wear in Ladakh that you can use as a checklist.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Clothes_to_pack_for_Ladakh_in_January_February_and_March\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Clothes to pack for Ladakh in January, February, and March<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">January is the month of the peak winter season in Ladakh.
