  Posted in the topic Is Amritsar a Good Starting Point for an Indian Himalayas Tour? in the forum Off-Topic Discussions

  Yes, you can start from Amritsar, but it would be a reverse and longer route compared to the official itinerary. While many riders wish to combine a visit to the Golden Temple with their Himalayan journey, the structured plan is designed differently for better route flow and riding comfort.

  The Himachal Pradesh Motorcycle Tour with Golden Temple is officially operated as a Delhi to Delhi circuit, with Amritsar included toward the end of the journey rather than the beginning.

  What Route Does the Tour Actually Follow?

  As per the official 9 day itinerary, the route is:

  Day 01-  Arrival in Delhi

  Day 02 - Delhi to Kalka by train, Kalka to Dharampur by toy train, then Shimla by road

  Day 03 - Shimla to Narkanda

  Day 04-  Narkanda to Sainj to Jalori Pass to Jibhi

  Day 05 - Jibhi to Mcleodganj Dharamshala

  Day 06-  Dharamshala to Dalhousie

  Day 07- Dalhousie to Pong Dam

  Day 08- Pong Dam to Amritsar

  Day 09- Amritsar to Delhi by train with Delhi city tour and departure

  Why Is This Route Recommended?

  This carefully designed circuit covers the Best Places to cover in Lower Himalayas Motorcycle Tour while maintaining a logical riding progression. Amritsar is part of the experience, but as a concluding highlight rather than the starting point, ensuring a balanced Himalayan ride.

  Posted in the topic What Is the Average Daily Riding Distance on a North India Bike Trip? in the forum Off-Topic Discussions

  February 24, 2026 12:28 AM PST

  When planning a North India Motorbike Tour, one of the most common questions riders ask is about daily riding distances. Understanding typical daily kilometres helps set expectations, maintain comfort, and enjoy every moment of your journey.

  How Far Do Riders Travel Each Day?

  There isn’t a one-size-fits-all answer. Distances vary by itinerary and terrain. On Motorcycle tours in India, especially those organised by experienced operators like Brahmand Tour and Travels, daily riding ranges between 80 to 200 kilometres on average. Mountain roads and high-altitude passes often reduce daily mileage, while flat plains allow longer distances. Safety, scenery, and rest are prioritised over pushing high daily kilometres.

  Why Does Distance Vary So Much?

  • Terrain affects speed and fatigue
  • Scheduled sightseeing stops
  • Road surfaces in Himalayan regions
  • Weather and elevation changes

  For example, a ride through Himachal or Ladakh will cover fewer kilometres due to winding high-altitude passes, whereas tours across Rajasthan’s plains cover more ground each day.

  Typical Ride Routes Covered

  A classic North India Motorbike Tour may start in Delhi, traverse Chandigarh, Shimla, Sarahan, Kalpa and Himalayan valleys on the Trans-Himalayan route. These scenic routes blend culture, landscapes, and adventure, and are planned to balance riding with exploration and rest.

  Tips for Daily Distances

  • Be realistic about your riding ability
  • Factor in weather and road conditions
  • Plan rest days on longer tours

  Understanding average daily distances helps you prepare for an unforgettable ride across North India’s diverse landscapes.
