About Leh

Leh is set in the Ladakh region of the Upper Himalayas. A desolate lunar landscape with arid mountains and snow-brushed peaks, hidden monasteries perched on stony cliffs, thousands of colourful prayer flags fluttering against the stark expanse, and an impossible blue sky. It is breathtaking, barren, and beautiful. Ladakh is the quintessential adventure destination and Leh is its lush heart where an expanse of verdant trees stands surrounded by rocky hillocks. A quiet city spread over undulating land, Leh offers a glimpse of this archaic region's culture and landscape while still allowing you to enjoy the luxuries of the contemporary world.
