in Leh

The roof of the world — where ancient Buddhist monasteries crown barren mountains, turquoise lakes sit at impossible altitudes, and the highest passes on earth lead to landscapes beyond imagination.

Go deeper

The best experiences in Leh — the off-menu restaurant, the dawn hike, the local's favourite spot — are found with a curious companion, not a guidebook.

Worth agreeing on before you meet

Buddhist Monastery Etiquette

Walk clockwise around monasteries, stupas, and prayer wheels (Buddhist tradition). Remove shoes and hats in prayer halls. Do not photograph during prayers. Sit lower than the monks. Place donations in the offering box, not directly to monks.

Protect Fragile Ecosystems

Ladakh's high-altitude environment is extremely fragile — litter decomposes slowly, water is scarce, and vegetation grows at a fraction of lowland rates. Carry out all rubbish, use refillable water bottles, and stay on established tracks to prevent erosion.

Full detail — itineraries, budgets, neighbourhoods and safety — is in the Leh travel guide.
