RACE TO THE TOP OF THE WORLD
Manali-Khardungla Cycling Championship
The Manali-Leh highway stretches over 510 km of predominantly paved roads, with stretches of sand, gravel and rocky terrain thrown in for good measure. The highway will also take you across several passes, three of them being higher than 16,500 ft. MKCC is a journey of rigorous ascents and heart stopping descents even as the incredible terrain and exotic vistas beckon you along the way.
