BOOK YOUR HOLIDAY 
LADAKH – God's Own Hideout
LEH , the capital of Ladakh is situated at an altitude of 3524 metres ( 11,562 feet) and is best used as a launch pad for the wonders that surround it. From June to September, Leh hustles and bustles with tourists from around the world. The Himalayan Capital has a host of Ancient Palaces ,Forts, Buddhist Monasteries , Carpet Shops, Woolen Temptations, Tibetan Jewellery, Roof Top Restos and even Happening Pubs ! LEH signifies 'Diversity on the Roof of the World'.
The arid land of Ladakh is dotted with monasteries which are a silent witness to the unchanging beliefs of Buddhism. Fluttering prayers flags, scattered chortens holding the relies of Buddhist saints, walls carved with prayers, whirring prayers wheels, the chant of the mantra 'Om Mani Padme Hum' (Praise to the Jewel in the Lotus Flower) – all form an integral part of Ladakh's Landscape just as its soaring mountains do. This fusion of religion with the geography of its land reflects how important religion is for the people of this Himalayan Destination.
NUBRA VALLEY
Nubra Valley is accessed from Leh through the Khardung La Pass, which also hosts the highest motorable road in the world at 18,350 feet. Driving into the Nubra Valley, one can experience the enormity of the Himalayas and the Karakoram Ranges, beauty of the fast flowing Nubra and Shyok Rivers , the magic of the Buddhist prayers and the awe of the unbelievable high altitude desert . Where else in the world can one witness a desert surrounded by peaks beyond 20000 feet and a fresh water stream flowing through the heart of it. A visit to Nubra Valley transcends all imagination and shrinks your sense of self to nothing.
Zanskar white water rafting
If you are inclined and poised to take on the chilling white waters of Zanskar, let this be the moment of your life. Known as the Copper Canyon, Zanskar invites beginners and die-hard rafting addicts to revel in its phenomenal charm and stunning landscapes astride its course! From one day rafting experience on the Zanskar to a 7day River Expedition, Pep Turf offers you the best and safest rafting experience in Ladakh.
Pangong Tso
Pangong Tso , 130 km long and at a height of 4,220 m, is accessed from Leh through the Chang-La , the third highest pass in the world at 17,590 feet. At Pangong Tso, a favourite Bollywood destination, dreams and reality converge in all shades of blue and green, making it the most picturesque destination of Ladakh. The lakeside moments offer immense solitude, endless awe and plenty for the soul! Experience Luxury Camping on the banks of Pangong Tso, where there isn't anything between you and the stars.
Cycling ladakh
A voyage to Ladakh would be incomplete without displaying your skills at Cycling…you can choose to cycle within Leh , spin the wheels to Khardung La , even beyond to the Nubra Valley, or cycle on the banks of the mystic Pangong Tso, but be sure you are fully acclimatized in the first few days at Leh before you embark on this challenging ordeal..
Ladakh on Wheels
On a Motorcycle trip through Ladakh, match out of the world landscapes with your 'Never Say Die Attitude'. Pep Turf offers Ladakh sightseeing on wheels through well spaced road trips with smooth logistics. To experience the challenging terrain of Ladakh, start your road trip from Delhi/Chandigarh, drive to Manali through the beautiful Kullu Valley, after which one drives or rides through the high altitude passes and reach Leh in two days with a night halt at Jispa or Sarchu. For those who feel biking from Manali to Leh is strenuous, we offer biking within Ladakh. One can choose to ride through Khardung La to the mystic Nubra Valley, or undertake the Pangong Tso Bike Tour with a day to relax at each destination.
