Motorable Passes of Ladakh

[Yogesh Sarkar]

Once this list is complete, I will put them all on OSM

For some reason osm is no longer showing the passes. Neither on web nor on app.

Phobe La etc. Used to be on it, if I remember it correctly, now there is nothing.

This is very strange, let me see

I visited Likir. Visited Likir Monastery and came back.
Can someone give more details on Pass number 7. Tsermanchan La, 8. Charatse La, 9. Phobe La?
Are they Motorable?
Are they after Likir village?

So, /if I am not wrong, Pass no 23. Namshang La is somewhere around Kiagar Tso!

Is it on the route of Sumdo to Tso Moriri. If yes ,we have crossed it unknowingly.

There is a road that goes from Likir Village to Hemis Shukpachen through Yangthang, it is a trek as well as a proper beautiful road, I did it in 2014 Blessed is the fool who returns from Ladakh. There is another road under construction which goes to Ang through Mebtak La. Not sure if it has been finished or not, but if it is, it would be one heck of a ride/drive as well.

Yes, it is between Kyagar Tso and Tso Moriri.

Got the coordinates for all the passes in the list yet?

Region is correct so dropped the pin at highest point.

All of the passes in the list are mapped out. A few aren't accurately marked i.e. they are marked on the route, but not at the exact point due to lack of coordinates.

Region is correct so dropped the pin at highest point.

Isn't Nurbu La same as Nerbole? If yes, then it is marked on Google Maps 3-4 km ahead of the location you dropped pin at and around 18 km from Ukdungle.

These passes don't come in or en route to Ladakh. We will try and map other passes later on. For now, the focus is on Ladakhi passes.
