By Road

Unforgettable Journey: Reaching Jammu and Kashmir by road offers a scenic adventure, but travel time can be significant. This option is best suited for the summer months (June to September) due to potential road closures in winters.

Multiple Routes: Road options vary depending on your destination:

Jammu: Well-connected by national highways to major Indian cities like Delhi and Chandigarh.

Kashmir Valley: Accessible via the Srinagar-Jammu National Highway from Jammu or the scenic route from Manali via Rohtang Pass.

Ladakh: Accessible by Manali-Leh Highway or Srinagar-Leh Highway, both offering breathtaking mountain vistas. However, these routes are closed during winters due to heavy snowfall.

Planning and Permits: A good vehicle with experienced drivers is essential, especially for navigating challenging mountain terrain. Obtaining Inner Line Permits (ILPs) is mandatory for all non-domiciled Indian travelers visiting Ladakh.
