This remote wilderness camp lies deep within the Ladakh Range, positioned within a valley that sits almost 4,000 metres above sea level. The camp is located within prime snow leopard territory and, with a combination of comfortable tented accommodation and trackers with over two decades of experience, there are few better places to stay.
It was the Maharaja of Kashmir who first allowed the nineteenth-century British visitors to live in houseboats. Sukoon brings this traditional concept of a residential houseboat into the modern era while losing none of the charms of history. Sukoon (meaning ‘tranquillity’ or ‘relaxation’) was originally built in 1979. Each of the five spacious rooms has a large window with lake views and a spacious ensuite with both a separate shower and bathtub. Where possible, original furnishings have been kept and restored including the glass chandeliers and the cedar wood panelling with its intricate carving.
