Please remember that helicopter rescue or ambulance services are not easily available in many parts of Ladakh. Mobile network is also very limited, and there may be no phone signal in Umling La.
The weather in the Himalayas can change quickly. Rain, snowfall, landslides, water crossings, or road repairs may affect the road conditions and daily riding plan. For the safety of the group, the Tour Leader may change the route or itinerary if required.
We strongly recommend that every participant buys travel insurance that covers motorcycle touring, high-altitude travel, medical treatment, emergency evacuation, and personal accidents.
Our experienced road captain, mechanic, and support team will always do their best to make your journey safe and enjoyable. However, travelling in the Himalayas is an adventure, and every rider should be prepared for changing weather, rough roads, and unexpected situations.
