Best Time to Visit Ladakh

Of all the three seasons (summer, monsoon and winter) in Ladakh, monsoon remains negligible as the region is a rain shadow area due to its altitude. You will find little or no rain in Ladakh during the monsoon season. Summers are cool and pleasant while winters are extremely cold and harsh.

Summer Season (March to June)

This is the best season to plan a family trip to Ladakh as the weather is pleasant making it perfect for sightseeing and indulging in a variety of activities. The temperature in Ladakh in the summer season ranges from 5°C to 25°C.

Monsoon Season (July to September)

Unlike any other part of the country, Ladakh in monsoon experiences little to no rainfall with temperatures ranging from 10°C to 25°C. A family trip to Ladakh in the monsoon season can also be planned.

Winter Season (late October to February)

If you are planning to visit Leh in the winter season, then it is advisable to take a flight to Leh as both Leh-Srinagar Highway & Leh-Manali Highway remain inaccessible due to excessive snowfall. The temperature in Ladakh during the winter season ranges from -2°C to 10°C.

How to visit Ladakh with Family

There are some of the basic and simple things that one should keep in mind when planning a Ladakh trip with family. The reason behind good preparation is that you will be travelling to a high altitude cold deserted region that requires some do’s and don’ts that will make your trip free from any sort of contingency. All will be guided to you when booking the Ladakh package for the family.

Plan your trip between May and September

The reason behind planning your Ladakh family trip between May and September is you will be able to enjoy sightseeing and adventure activities as the weather remains pleasant and favourable. The roads are open and you don’t have to face any sort of risk.

Don’t take babies of less than a year

The lungs of babies less than 2 years old are not mature to handle altitude sickness. The baby won’t be able to say if something is wrong or if they aren’t feeling well. So, it is advisable to not take babies on Ladakh trips.

Dealing with Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS)

The altitude sickness is real and you cannot take it for granted when visiting Ladakh. Make sure to ascend gradually and rest whenever needed which would help in acclimatizing. Don't forget to carry Diamox or any other prescribed medication for AMS by a doctor. Above all, stay hydrated throughout the trip.

Carry basic medicines

Carry basic medicines like Crocin/Saridon for headache, Digene/Pan 40 for upset stomach, Paracetamol for fever, D-Cold/Vicks for the common cold, etc. Other than this, keep first-aid bandages, anti-septic lotions, pain relief sprays, nasal drops and more.

Be prepared for the sun

The sun in Ladakh is harsh and can cause you tanning or sunburn. So, it’s good to carry sunscreen with SPF 50 and keep applying it at regular intervals. Wear a hat and sunglasses. You should also keep moisturizer, lip balm and body lotion.

Include only main tourist places in your itinerary

It is good to take Ladakh family packages that have tourist places like Nubra Valley, Pangong Tso, and Tso Moriri. This is because proper roads are constructed to these places so you don’t have to worry about anything when in Ladakh with family. Avoid going to remote places because if something goes wrong, unfortunately, you will get stuck with your family.

Above we have presented everything that you needed to know before planning your Ladakh trip with family. If there is anything you are still looking for, we are all ears. Our travel experts will guide you to the best of their capabilities. Choose from our meticulously-designed Ladakh Family Tour Packages to enjoy a trip like never before.
