Car
If you're driving from Leh, head towards the Leh-Manali Highway (NH 3). Drive approximately 3 km from the main market area in Leh. Look for the Govt. Degree College on your left, and shortly after, you'll see Norgyasling on the left side. The Himalayan Bunker is located at house number 91, just off the highway, near the college. Make sure to keep an eye out for signboards or landmarks as you approach.
Public Transportation
For those using public transport, find a local taxi or shared jeep from Leh market heading towards the Leh-Manali Highway. Inform the driver to drop you near the Govt. Degree College. The fare is usually around ₹50-₹100 per person. Once you reach the college, walk back towards the highway for about 200 meters, and you will find the Himalayan Bunker at house number 91 on your left. It's advisable to confirm the location with locals if needed.
Walking
If you're already near the Govt. Degree College or have walked from Leh market, you can easily reach the Himalayan Bunker on foot. Simply head towards the Leh-Manali Highway and look for house number 91, which is a short walk away. It should take you about 10-15 minutes depending on your pace.
