Route
Srinagar → Manali
Zanskar Frontier is a 10-day guided motorcycle expedition from Srinagar to Manali covering roughly 1500 km of Off-road, river crossings, rocky trails. It is designed for riders who want the adventure without the logistics headache.
Our road captains have ridden this route dozens of times. They know the fuel stops, the chai dhabas and the hidden viewpoints. A fully-equipped backup vehicle with a mechanic follows the group, carrying your luggage, spares and oxygen.
Groups are kept small so every rider gets attention, and every evening ends with stories around the fire.
