Route: Leh - Nubra Valley - Leh
Places covered: Leh, Thiksey Monastery, Shanti Stupa, Khardung La, Nubra Valley, Hunder
A Ladakh retreat can be the most memorable event in a company's year, or a logistical headache, depending on planning. This programme is a framework we adapt to your goals, group size and budget. It uses Leh as the main base, which is the only place in Ladakh with a good range of hotels, restaurants and medical facilities, and adds a single night in Nubra.
Who it suits
Teams of ten to thirty people on a reward trip, leadership retreat or team-building offsite. Larger groups may need to split across hotels. It works best from June to September.
How the days flow
On day one, the group arrives, rests and gathers for a short, light welcome dinner. Day two is a gentle sightseeing day. Day three is the working day: sessions in the morning at the hotel, a long lunch and an afternoon activity such as a monastery visit or a village walk. Day four takes the group to Nubra over Khardung La for a dune evening and a camp dinner. Day five returns to Leh. Day six is departure.
What we coordinate
- Flights and transfers, with group seat blocks and airport pickups.
- The venue. A hotel with rooms, dining and, if possible, a meeting space.
- The programme. Sessions, cultural visits, a village lunch, a Nubra evening and free time.
- Health. An altitude briefing, rest on arrival, a first-aid kit and an oxygen plan.
- Dietary needs. Vegetarian, Jain and other requests.
- One contact for the organiser, and on-ground support.
Practical considerations
Meeting spaces in Leh are limited, so we may use restaurant areas or outdoor spaces. Participants arrive at different fitness levels, so avoid strenuous activity and late-night sessions in the first days. We keep a buffer for weather and flight delays, and follow official advice about the local situation. In September 2025, protests in Leh led to a curfew; we check conditions close to your dates and tell you plainly if anything affects the plan.
What makes a Ladakh retreat different
The setting does a lot of the work. People who have just crossed a high pass or sat in silence at a monastery tend to talk differently. Small touches, such as a welcome note, a local dinner or a short talk by a local guide, make the trip feel considered and not just scheduled.
