How to reach Leh, Ladakh?
- Reaching Leh for the Kang Yatse II Expedition is easiest by air. Daily flights operate from Delhi, Mumbai, Chandigarh, and Srinagar to Kushok Bakula Rimpochee Airport, offering stunning views of the Trans-Himalayas. Since the region lies at 3,500 meters, flying is the quickest and most convenient option.
- Alternatively, you can reach Leh by road via the Manali–Leh Highway or the Srinagar–Leh Highway, both offering scenic but long journeys of 2–3 days. Road travel is best in summer months when mountain passes remain open.
- Upon arrival, spend at least one day acclimatizing in Leh before starting the expedition.
