SECMOL Office in Leh town
SECMOL's town office is in the Housing Colony at the lower end of Leh town. From town, go down to the roundabout next to the Petrol Pump, and take the road towards Choglamsar and Manali. Pass the Hill Council Complex with its big dome on your left. After that look for an untarred road to the left, with a large sign for Leh Nutrition Project and a small sign for SECMOL. Our office is up that road on the right.
SECMOL Campus at Phey
SECMOL Campus is 18 km west of Leh, next to the Indus River. It is 3 km off the Leh-Srinagar highway down an unpaved road, and 3 km beyond the centre of Phey village.
The easiest way to reach SECMOL Campus is to drive from the airport or Leh town (about Rs 500 for a taxi). The drive takes half an hour.
If you come by public bus you'll have to walk 3 km. Take any bus going to Phyang village or Sham region and ask the conductor to let you off at the road to SECMOL (which is also where the road to Phyang leaves the highway). The bus takes about half an hour. There are many buses to Sham in the morning, and some in the early afternoon.
From Leh, pass Phey village on the Leh-to-Srinagar highway and go as far as the road to Phyang. The road to SECMOL is directly opposite the road to Phyang village, so turn left at the sign for SECMOL (i.e. away from Phyang). In 2007 trucks have been taking gravel from the surrounding hills and creating false roads, so keep going more or less straight toward the distant mountains to the south. The correct road goes up onto a small plateau and then drops down again into a small valley in the desert plain. When you see the Indus River in front of you, you can see SECMOL Campus off to your right.
There is a daily bus to Phey village at 4:30 pm. Get to the mini-bus section of the bus stand by 4:15. The people on the bus will all know SECMOL and will steer you in the right direction: follow the road parallel to the Indus River for 3 km to SECMOL Campus. This walk is more pleasant than the walk in from the highway.
