Indiavarta.com: The Wilderness Camp, Leti 360

« Previous page | Posted on: August 14, 2007 | Filed under: Himalayas

Obviously, this tour operator had enough of tent fleas, yak cheese and smelly sleeping bags while trekking the base of the Himalayas—and this camp was born 18 months ago.

Leti, a five-hour drive from Almora, Uttaranchal, has a panoramic view of the Himalayas to soak in, without the exertion. Dining off damask tablecloths by candlelight, sipping select world wines and feasting on haute cuisine prepared by the chef, a Tibetan monk, one can then retire to the comfort of a four-poster bed, pashmina blankets and feather duvets.

Tagged at US $650 per night. Minimum 3 nights. Heli-hop to Karkodam or charter a flight to Pant Nagar, at extra cost. Most likely to bump into frazzled bankers, finance whizkids, from Britain and Europe.
