Indian Himalayas, India

For those who seek space, peace and natural beauty, Shakti offers a rare opportunity to discover compellingly beautiful and remote regions of the Himalayas. With village houses in Ladakh and Kumaon, these truly rural areas of the Himalayas can be explored whilst returning each evening to a warming log fire, a delicious meal and a comfortable bed. All this finery is entirely understated with locals being involved in all aspects of the development. It is a unique experience and is the epitome of low-impact, sustainable tourism.
