Geography of Ladakh

Ladakh is one of the surpassing trekking sites. It is located in between the Karakoram mountain range in the north and The Himalayas in the south. The region includes the Indus Valley, Zanskar in its south and Nubra valleys in its north. The Ladakh range does not have any major peaks and it is located at the height of 20,000ft approximately. The altitude of Ladakh is high, as it lies at the height of 9,800ft. The primary water source is the winter snowfall that hails on the mountains. The regions situated on the north zone of the Himalayas: Dras, Suru Valley, and Zanskar – face heavy snowfall and for several months, these places do not witness any outside interaction with the rest of the world.

Description in Brief:

Leh Ladakh trip is something everyone looks forward to, especially for bikers. Being a biker, one wishes to be on a Leh Ladakh bike trip once in a lifetime. The beauty of the mountains is enticing, and when you are on a bike trip with your mates, you can see the mountains surrounded with the crystal clear snow, the rivers cutting out the sharp-edge of the valleys, the freezing winds and the blue water flowing with the land, the monks chanting and the sound of the chimes making your travel enthralling. The colorful prayer flags gliding the dazzle heights, representing the elements of nature like air, fire, earth, water, and sky. The reason these flags are mounted there is that the Buddhists believe these flags should always flow with the wind as they emit the positive spiritual vibrations. The mantra “Om Ma Ni Padme Hum” is written on these flags and this mantra has a lot of definitions. It combines enormous values like moral principles, determination, diligence, and calmness. There is a belief that while meditating if the travelers recite this mantra, then it can heal the enviousness, arrogance, pride, selfish desires, etc.
