:User [[user:PhysicsHipster|PhyiscsHipster]]: ""I hitched around Kashmir in May 2016 and found it quite easy. Traffic is much more scarce, so people understand the concept better. Lots of trucks will stopped, and didn't expect payment. Knowing hindi was a huge asset, as most people don't speak English in remote areas. Also be careful of the altitude, as it can mess with you.""
:User [[user:Dadoo|Dadu12]]: ""Me an my friend hitched from Dharamshala to Srinagar via Jammu. As PhysicalHipster wrote, its quite easy if you know how to wave. Additional Infos about hitching in Kashmir: You may find some locals trying to get a lift from trucks. We also sat in tracks together with Kasmiris going home after sunset. Be aware that the road condition of the Jammu-Srinagar Highway it quite bad and it takes long time. Hitching in Leh/Ladakh: It was a blast and worked okay, since many regions are quite remote. Be prepared to freeze on a pickup at -temperatures. Also, be aware of high passes/streets (f.ex. Kardung La). You may also like to hitch without destination and see what will happen.. Some guy took us to a REAL bad road leading to some workers midst of a National Park, and it was beautiful. .""
