Glamping in the Trans-Himalaya

Ladakh

Brief

In the stark mountain desert of Ladakh, TUTC’s glamping experience takes all the creature comforts of a luxury holiday and combines them with the adventure of a high-altitude camping expedition. The site itself is stunning: a grassy knoll with swaying willow trees beside a babbling brook, views stretching out to the snow-capped Stok Kangri, and the striking Thiksey Monastery set into the hillside. In this surreal setting, add high-end heated tents with antique furniture and Kashmiri carpets, private patios and butler service, and you have an experiential holiday unlike any other.

Highlights

Prayer ceremony at Thiksey Monastery

A Buddhist prayer ceremony at sunrise is a truly spiritual experience. Join the monks of Thiksey Monastery for their daily morning prayers, when the air reverberates with their chants, and follow it up with cups of butter tea.


A Buddhist trail in Alchi

Ladakh is peppered with revered monasteries, and the 11th-century stupa at Alchi is among the region’s most important holy sites. Follow the Indus River to the Alchi Gompa, resplendent with its Kashmiri-style architecture and Tibetan murals.


Bird watching at dawn

Follow a trained camp naturalist on a birding trail to spot the elusive winged species native to the Trans-Himalaya - best suited to early risers.


Traditional archery

Try your hand at the local sport of archery, or simply watch the locals practice in a dramatic landscape of rugged mountains.
