What is the best time to visit Ladakh?

When planning for Ladakh, you must decide on the time when you would want to visit it. There is a lot of buzz and commotion in Ladakh almost every time and winters are all known for the snow and frozen times.

Ladakh looks gorgeous during winters as it is totally filled in snow and the views are picturesque.

Summer season

The summer season is the best season to visit Ladakh and tourists flood in this time. The snow-capped mountains melt making the scenery feel so refreshing to the eyes. The best way is to travel by roads during the peak season. Khardunga la and Chang La are the two important passes in the region. You can wait here and get breathtaking photographs.

The landscapes are filled with colorful flowers surpassing the valleys. Bike trips can be seen on the roads at this time of the year.

Monsoon season

The period of early winter is best for trekking and walking activities. Exploring the places on foot seems to be a good idea during monsoons.

During the monsoons, there can be slight snowfall which seems to be like a dream come true for every traveler. The water bodies can be seen in the brightest shades of blue which seems fascinating.

Winter Season

During the winter season, the hilly areas remain blocked and there is heavy rainfall all over the region. There can be landslides which turn out to be dangerous and all the sports activities totally remain closed at this time. This is the best time for the Chadar lake trek.

The hotels have reasonable prices at this time of the year and the temperatures fall below 0 degrees with freezing winds blowing.
