Royal Enfield has released the first list of expedition riders, mountain guides, climbers, filmmakers, independent musicians and athletes
Royal Enfield Himalayan Basecamp will be held in Leh from September 4-6, 2026. The company has released the first line-up of expedition riders, overlanders, rally pioneers, Special Forces veterans, mountain guides, climbers, engineers, filmmakers and athletes, who will be a part of the immersive three-day programming. In addition, Royal Enfield has announced that some of India’s most celebrated independent musicians and voices from the mountains will also grace the Himalayan Basecamp 2026 with their presence.
The Phase 1 passes for the 2026 Himalayan Basecamp are available till August 12 at Rs 1,999 for a three-day pass, and Rs 999 for single-day pass, before the next phase of registrations starts from August 13. The participants will get an opportunity to indulge in masterclasses by Adam Riemann and Jamie Robinson, technical workshops by Anand Dharmaraj, and guided expeditions curated by Vijay Parmar.
The Himalayan Basecamp 2026 will also have outdoor challenges led by Tanvi Badami and SK Wazid Ali, mountain experiences with Monks & Warriors, and live music by the likes of Anuv Jain, Ankur Tiwari & the Ghalat Family. Participants will train, learn and step into their worlds first-hand, while trading stories, skills and hard-won lessons with a community driven by the same restless curiosity to explore beyond the familiar.
One of the most defining experiences at Himalayan Basecamp 2026 will be the Ladakh Uncharted, which has been created in partnership with Alpinestars. It will take the participants beyond the region’s best-known routes and into the heart of the Himalayas. Led by local riders, the journeys across Wari La, the Leh–Zanskar Trail through Chilling and Shukpa Makha, and the roads between Likir and Tingmosgang will uncover a quieter and more authentic Ladakh through hidden passes and remote villages.
As the day’s adventures draw to a close, Himalayan Basecamp 2026 will settle into a different rhythm. The evenings will bring some of India’s leading independent musicians together with artists from the mountains, with a line-up chosen to feel at home in its surroundings via warm and soulful music for long evenings under Himalayan skies. After days spent riding, climbing and exploring, Basecamp will become a place to gather, listen and trade stories with the people around you.
Besides Anuv Jain, Ankur Tiwari & the Ghalat Family, several more renowned musicians will perform at the 2026 Himalayan Basecamp. Taba Chake, a singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist from Arunachal Pradesh, will also perform during the 3-day long tour. Dashugs, Rolyang Band and Luyangs Band will also play local Ladakhi music during the Himalayan Basecamp 2026.
