Arrive Manali,greet and meet, transfer to hotel. Today, we would spend the day in Manali itself to acclimatize to the high altitude. This is absolutely necessary and is most important for the days ahead.

Today we will start our expedition to ride from Manali to Marhi. We will cycle about 36 km to Marhi- a continuous climb that took us from 6700 ft to 11000 ft. The ride, though strenuous, will take one through some exquisite locations. The mountain side, which is thickly covered in vegetation- trees and shrubs alike, is a treat for any nature lover. As we climb higher, human settlements become fewer and farther apart. The last one before Marhi, Gulaba, is about 20 km away. Marhi itself is just a cluster of dhabas and camping sites which acts as a comfortable stop over for road travelers. We will camp a night under a clear sky.

Today 16 km climb to Rohtang La is more fun than hard work. There’s a temple of Rishi Vyas which marks the origin of the Beas River slightly before Rohtang which is a popular stop over for tourists. The first few km's. of the climb down from Rohtang is both exhilarating and unsettling at the same time. Rohtang pass is an uphill area covered with snow at height of around 13052ft. above sea level, very chilling and pleasant atmosphere. The speed is exhilarating but the steep falls on one side and the hairpin bends are sometimes unsettling. But all that is for the first few km's, after that the road vanishes and a rough track starts which doesn’t allows any great speed. Continuous downward of around 17 km's from Rohtang pass till Sissu village. This continues up to Koksar from where the roads suddenly show up again and there’s a rolling terrain alongside the Chandra River up to Sissu. Night halt in the home stay at Sissu.

Morning is cool here and you might find it lazy to get out of your bed but trust us, it is worth it. After breakfast, we will be starting our cycle journey from Sissu To Jispa and we will be covering a distance of almost 55 km. Jispa is a small and very peaceful village where you will find very less houses and fewer people. The shops present there are selling only the basic things. Before moving forward, we would take a small break to have enough water and food so that we stay hydrated and full of energy in the further part of the adventure.

As you move forward towards Jispa, you will see the famous Mt Keylong which has a Peak of almost 600 Mt and is known to be one of the most favorite spots among trekkers. We would reach Jispa around the afternoon time where we will have our lunch and stay in our tents after a tiring cycling session. Overnight in Jispa Camp.

Today after a good hot tea and breakfast, we would be heading towards Zing Zing Bar which will be our campsite. This Day is going to be adventurous as we have to be mentally and physically strong throughout the journey. It is still important to stay hydrated for a smooth journey. As we move further. we would be coming across Darcha which is known to be a small town where there are many local Dhabas where you can try local food. After some more cycling on the way, we would come across Deepak Tal which is a famous blue Lake. We would spend some time here maybe and then move further to our final destination which is Zing Zing Bar. Zing Zing Bar is a place where you can have a hot meal and finally, we would be spending the rest of the evening in our tents with some activities and lots of fun with the whole team.

Today it is16 kilometers climb to Baralacha La is pretty gradual. What really slows one down is the low amount of oxygen. Climb at your own pace as it is never advisable to strain the body at such heights. The desert starts too evident, the brown colour wins the battle and greenery is nonexistent for all practical purposes. One sees a new variety of vegetation- small red plants that looked like they were oddly coloured sand. Baralacha La, at the height of 15900 ft, is cold, made more so by the ceaseless winds. Climb down after clicking a few pictures and have lunch at a dhaba which is located at the banks of a river. After lunch, there is a stretch of rolling terrain up to Sarchu which marks the border between Himachal Pradesh and Ladakh. There is no change in the surroundings, the mountains are as barren and as high as they had been earlier. It is another 20 kilometers to Brandy Nallah where we will camp for the night.

Today we would be having our breakfast a bit early in the morning and start from Brandy Nallah via Lachung La. As we move further in our journey, we will find that the roads here are not smooth however you will find it exciting. The landscape view that you will be getting here is phenomenal. The whole Duration of  today in cycling would be around 6-7 hours after reaching Pang we would be having a sumptuous meal at night and doze off to our beds to get the much-needed rest after a long and adventurous day.

Today it is 05 kilometers climb followed by about 40 kilometers of plains, the ride this day is supposed to be a cakewalk. The climb is over soon and with a new thrill, we start riding on the More Plains. We might encounter blue sheep, yak, and a variety of other wildlife en route. The route today is on a vast Plateau which gives an enthralling ride unless weather remains in favor. Riding through the vast mountains and the brown colored landscape amidst the serene, isolated regions reminds of a prehistoric moment away from modern world. After a pleasant ride we reach at Debring where we will stay for night. 

Today morning,  we would be moving forward from Debring after a good breakfast to reach Rumtse. Before reaching the Rumtse we will climb 20 kilometers difiicult ride to reach Tanglang La Pass. Tanglang La which, at the height of 17580 ft.,consists the gradual route to approach but with the less oxygen conditions. As you move forward, you will experience the changing landscape. After reaching Rumtse, you can explore the local area and then finally switch to your bed or a good night's sleep before we head for our the next day.

Today we would be leading to the mesmerizing view of the city of Leh. On our way, you will get lots and lots of places which are full of beautiful lakes and valleys. Also, the environment here is cool, quiet, and soothing, away from the city life where you will feel like staying for even longer. After arrival in Leh, we would be celebrating the completion of our cycling Exepedtions.

In the morning check out after breakfast. Expedition end here.
