Royal Enfield Moto Himalaya is a pursuit for riders to meet their adventure quotient by riding across some of the highest motorable passes and traversing through pristine lakes in the mountains or merely camping under starlit skies in the Himalayan ranges. The ride flags off in Leh, making its way to the Zanskar Valley, Pangong Lake, Hanle, Tso Moriri and the Highest Motorable road at 19,024 ft above mean sea level. Decorating the crown of the subcontinent of India, the landscapes of this area are richly embellished with sights and experiences of every kind imaginable. This ride is an experience to cherish and to remember every bit of terrain that you’d be riding through for years to come. All this comes with the added flavour of camaraderie and bonhomie developed with like minded enthusiasts on the highest roads in the world.

Moto Himalaya 2025 will kick start from Leh. Leh is at an altitude of 3,524 metres (11,562 ft) and thus participants will get two days to acclimatize themselves to the higher altitude. Leh is the joint capital and largest town of the union territory of Ladakh in India.
Pangong Tso or Pangong Lake is an endorheic lake spanning a massive 134 kilometers in length. Pangong Lake, situated at a height of almost 4,350m, is the world’s highest saltwater lake. Its water, which seems to be dyed in blue, stands in stark contrast to the arid mountains surrounding it.
The Highest motorable pass in the world, at an altitude higher than the Mt Everest base camp - 19,024 ft above mean sea level. Quite literally, the pinnacle of this adventure.
At 16,580 feet above sea level, Shinku La connects the Zanskar region to Keylong. It acts as the Gateway to Zanskar region when approached from the Manali - Leh Highway. ShinkuLa Pass is the highest pass on this beautiful side of Ladakh.
On the road from Rangdum to Padum, Drang Drung Glacier stands tall near Pensi La mountain pass. It is the source of the Stod River which flows into the Zanskar river and eventually feeds into the Indus.

Day 1
Travel to Leh, the capital of Ladakh. The plan for the day is complete rest devoid of any exertion. The objective is for you to be acclimatized to the high altitude and the low oxygen levels here at that altitude. Rest and Relax is the motto of the day!
Day 2
You’ll spend the day acclimatizing to the high altitude today. Light walks are recommended. Drinking plenty of water will help in the process. Use this time to get rid of the jet lag and get that body good to go for the adventure ahead!
Day 3
Today we indulge in a relaxed ride in order for you to be better acclimatized as well as get accustomed to Indian roads and traffic conditions. This ride is short, about 60 kms in all. We will have a complete ride briefing in the evening to prepare you for the journey ahead.
Day 4
The ride starts today! We head to one of the highest lakes in the Ladakh plateau. Today’s ride sees varying road conditions from good tarmac to water crossings to some daunting off-road.
Day 5
Taking our highland adventure further, today the ride goes through some barren rugged landscape and a whole lot of off-road, skirting the Chinese border at places to Hanle, one of the most beautiful places in Ladakh. We will be staying at Hanle for the next two nights, camping under starlit skies !
Day 6
Get to the top of the highest motorable road in the world - Umling La at 19,024 ft above msl. The day is all about getting through massive flatlands to get to the prize!
Day 7
After a few days of tasting dirt in the Himalayas, it’s time to take a break with a fantastic tarmac ride heading past Leh once again to Ulley Tokpo. This will mark our departure from Changthang and entry into the Zanskar region of Ladakh.
Day 8
Today Zanskar welcomes us with dusty dirt roads as we make our way through some magnificent gorges and valleys to the pristine town of Padum. Making this ride a memorable one would be the awe inspiring sights that make up this forgotten part of Ladakh.
Day 9
Another memorable day awaits! On this day we take a trip to the locally sacred mountain of Gonbo Rangjon which is quite a sight by itself and onwards to Shinku La, a high altitude pass at 16,580 ft above msl.
Day 10
By the time you reach Leh, you’ll rest comfortably in the knowledge that you would have gone through some of the highest passes and the highest lakes in the world. Today’s ride is a mix of some sandy trails and picture perfect tarmac, thus ending your journey on a high. We’ll have a closing ceremony in the evening where we can sit around a fire and chat all about our trip to the high Himalayas.
Day 11
Until next time !

20 riders from 11 countries took advantage of Royal Enfield’s 6 decades of riding experience in the Himalayas across 9 days of riding like no other at the first ever Moto Himalaya. This is their story.
24 participants from across the globe came together to knock off one of their bucket list moments by riding in the Himalayas.
25 Riders from all over the world. 1 Epic experience.
The Royal Enfield Community grows each year with participants from Japan, Korea, Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia and Australia joining Moto Himalaya 2022 for an experience of a lifetime in the Himalayas.
The best memory and my proudest moment was when I placed the Thai flag on Khardung La mountain top, at which point I actually shed a small tear. As is normal with motorcycle culture, no matter where you are from, no matter what language you speak, at the end of the trip you have created a bond. -Annie Prisana, Thailandia

I learned some harsh things about myself that I still work on daily, but the trip opened me up to the possibility of more in life than the one-dimensional parth that I had been traveling on. India forces a new perspective on life to those who experience her. The trip changed my life. - Justin Reiter, Stati Uniti
/-
20 years ago I visited Madras and the old Royal Enfield factory and did a trip on an old bullet 500 in Tamil Nadu and the land around it. Moto Himalaya reminded me that humans are very small compared to this majestueux nature. This ride was not just about motorbikes. It was about friendships between people. - Christophe Gaime, Moto Revue Classic
