      Permits which are checked at Marhi are made at Gulaba 24X7. Do remember to stop at the post in gulaba and get them made.
      Regarding road conditions -- as jeevan.life said, do a bit of clickwork

        Feels Great to be back home but i still somehow miss Ladakh

        All roads are open in ladakh and zanskar region

        Kunzum Pass from Keylong for Spiti is still closed and wont be open for another month as per locals..

        Manali Leh highway is indeed in bad condition but its a must take route inspite of bad road conditions..

          Now if I plan to take the Manali-Leh highway, what all places do I need to get a permit at? can someone please give me detailed information regarding the permits? I plan to start from Delhi on 27th July.
          Road trip or no trip!

            Re: Getting Leh'ed - 2014 Planner

            Finally my plans for Leh are confirmed. Well I would still say almost confirmed. Not that I am a skeptic but there has been so much negativity and pushback for this trip from my family, it has killed my excitement to certain (small but definitive) extent. But never the less, it is a dream which in all probability will come true this time. I am leaving Saturday early morning and will be going via Manali and wil be coming back via Srinagar. We have booked train tickets from Udhampur to Delhi and we are planning to get our bikes loaded on to train. Had few quick questions regarding that.

            1. I believe Udhampur station also offers luggage/parcel facility. Can someone kindly confirm this.
            2. Does anyone have experience at Udhampur of loading bikes. how good or bad is that
            3. If my bike is not in my name, can I still book it.
            4. Can I do this on sunday?
            5. If by any chance we can not get it loaded on train. Is there any contingency plan that we can follow.

              Hey Naveen after the changes for Indian tourist in leH you won't require permits for any place on leH Manali highway
              Below are regions where permits are mandate - chushul - NYoma - saga la - handle and ahead
              Marsimik la or basically any region which has LOC crossing through it
              For rest of th places you will have to fill a form which is readily available at any xerox or STd booths on leH . You have to fill in your information and bike details into it
              This form needs to be given in check posts if asked . We were asked for this form at Baralacha

                Thanks a lot for that information brother! That sure eases up a lot of things. But I still have one question remaining. Earlier in the thread, I saw [MENTION=11584]Mik[/MENTION] mention that the permits which are checked at Marhi are made at Gulaba. So, is that permit requred for everyone who intends to cross Rohtang pass and ride ahead? or is it for any specific places? were you people asked for the permit at marhi?

                  No we were not asked for any permits. It's just the form that I mentioned will be required . I would suggest check BCMT forum for more detailed info in permits

                      [MENTION=68988]naveen1322[/MENTION] if you are going from the manali leh side then yes, you do need to get permits made at Gulaba otherwise the checkpost at Marhi will not let you through (Atleast that was the situation till 14th - check bcmtouring leh-manali road status thread if there has been any change). But, if you are coming from the Leh side, then no such issues.

                        I will be going from Manali to Leh. So I will have to get the permits made at Gulaba. This is another very useful information. Thanks [MENTION=11584]Mik[/MENTION]

                            Lets just say.. we tried our best and saw some incredible situations
                            It was 23rd and the valley was angry (Sopore killing)
                            This ride has been fascinating/scary/plain lucky and I am almost motivated to write a log

                              Yea, the politicians just don't want to leave the valley peaceful. Killing and protests

                              Btw, do write a log and would love to read the 'incredible situations' now don't run away from the keyboard.

                              I am myself planning to visit valley on Eid (july 28-29)
                              Ride safe and have fun.
