Monasteries in the Mountains of Ladakh
Shakti
Take a journey on foot through the ‘Land of the High Passes,’ among the awe-inspiring mountains of Leh. This region is characterized by crisp clear blue skies and desert-like landscapes, peppered with villages encircled by orchards and farms. You’ll visit the most important monasteries in Ladakh as you pass through peaceful rural villages.
In the hamlets of Ladakh find handicrafts, fine metal work and the softest Pashmina garments, made by skilled craftspeople. Along your journey you’ll stay in local homes that have been beautifully refurbished, where your private chef will prepare you fresh and inviting meals every day.
Here you can completely reconnect with nature, in this spiritual homeland of Buddhism.
Why You’ll Love This Trip:
- Fully Tailored Experience: Whether you are travelling as a family, a group of friends, a couple or seeking a solo spiritual journey, your Shakti trekking experience will be designed to suit you. Immerse yourself fully in local life or take challenging treks in the foothills of the Himalayas.
- Collaborative & Community Driven: The village homes in which you will stay are leased from local families. The staff are from the region, the food is sourced from the area – providing you with a deeper connection with Ladakh as well as ensuring your trip benefits the local people.
- Creative Culinary Experience: Traditionally Himalayan treks offer fairly basic dining options, not so with your personal Shakti chef. Using a small wood fired stove and boundless creativity you’ll be treated to family recipes passed down from generation to generation with vibrantly fresh, regional ingredients.
