Q: What is altitude sickness and how to prevent it in Ladakh?

A: Roads are generally safe but challenging with high passes, hairpin turns, and altitude. No special permit needed for Indian citizens. Foreign tourists need Restricted Area Permit (RAP) for Nubra Valley and Tso Moriri, obtainable in Leh. Hire experienced local drivers familiar with mountain terrain.
