Unplug from the hustle and plug into nature's most beautiful and adventurous Leh Ladakh bike trip from Manali. To express it in most straightforward language, the Leh Ladakh bike trip from Manali, which is approximately 476 km in length, is every rider's dream for its most adventurous roads, scenic valleys, barren to snowy mountains, vast flatlands to hairpin turns. All of this is combined with gushes of heavy cold wind, pushing you back from time to time, making this journey even more adventurous and exciting.
Gliding on this road means weaving into the poetic rhythms, talking to self, and plugging into nature with various desolate places, offbeat trails, monasteries, high-altitude lakes and highest passes.
To gain enough confidence about the trails, it is in our favour. BRO (Border Road Organization) takes care of the highway. Further, the whole project is divided into Project Himank and Project Deepak. Project Deepak handles the part of the highway from Manali to Sarchu (222 km); Project Himank takes care of the highway from Sarchu to Leh (254 km).
Handling AMS on this road trip will be our utmost priority because you will be above an altitude of 14000 ft for more than 300 km. Our leaders will be taking time to time surveys of your health. Let them know if you feel anything out of the world
With that confirmed, Plan the Unplanned team invites you on a 11-day off-the-track Leh Ladakh bike trip from Manali. You will be doing many things along with getting high doses of adrenaline. Check out the itinerary and book your next slot.

That tired, restless feeling is bound to kick in somewhere during the week and when you want to get away from the heart of Bangalore city, Plan The Unplanned can take you deep into the heart of Karnataka’s Chikmagalur district. Here lies a land where clouds come down to kiss the rolling green hills, and the air smells of moss and magic.
Kudremukh, the “Horse-Faced” sentinel of the South is often hailed as the Himalayas of the South.
Did you know that this mighty peak is the 3rd highest peak in Karnataka, right behind Mullayanagiri and Baba Budangiri?
Now imagine the rush of adrenaline you will feel, when you get to the top!
Perfect for those who are high on fitness or already have a few treks under their belt, this stunning escape from the chaos that Bangalore can become, is just a few hours away. The sweet dulcet tones of birdsong and the gurgling of mountain streams will make this trek worth it all and if you want to experience all this and more, come join our tribe!

### Trek highlights

Here’s a fun fact to tuck in your backpack: the Western Ghats are a UNESCO World Heritage Site, globally treasured for their biodiversity and breathtaking balance.
As you make your way through the trek, nature paints a different scene every hour - mist curling around trees, valleys blooming below, and hills rolling endlessly like green waves. Trust us when we tell you that the Kudremukh trek goes beyond beautiful – it is surreal!
Here is all that you will get to experience on this trek:

• A trek that will challenge you, but allow you to reconnect with yourself and others like you
• Lush shola forests one minute, wide-open meadows the next!
• Silver-threaded waterfalls and gentle cascading streams that will leave you mesmerised
• The gorgeous Kodige Falls, where you get to take a well-earned dip!
• Delicious local meals, campfire stories and much more at the charming Bella Homestay

As you stand at the top of Kudremukh, you will get to savour dewdrops instead of deadlines. Enjoy the views of sweeping valleys rather than spreadsheets and get that reset you need, with Plan The Unplanned.
