Welcome to Skara Heritage House, a boutique homestay in Skara village in the heart of Leh, where Ladakhi tradition and contemporary comfort blend seamlessly. Set within a beautifully preserved family home, we offer the warmth and authenticity of a local stay with the elegance and privacy of a boutique experience.

Our four thoughtfully designed rooms reflect the charm of traditional Ladakhi architecture, combined with modern amenities for a restful and luxurious stay. Sunlit interiors, handcrafted décor, and mountain views create a sense of calm the moment you arrive.

Savor meals made with fresh produce from our organic vegetable garden, and spend slow, peaceful mornings among our apricot and apple trees. The house is surrounded by green open spaces—a rare treasure in Leh—where quiet moments unfold naturally, whether you’re reading under the shade of the orchard or sipping tea in the crisp mountain air.

Unwind after a day of exploration in our soothing sauna, a unique offering that brings warmth and relaxation to your Himalayan journey.

Conveniently located, yet tucked away from the bustle, Skara Heritage House offers peace, privacy, and great views, all within minutes of Leh’s markets, monasteries, and cultural landmarks. Here, time slows down and life feels beautifully simple — just as the mountains intended.

Experience the Seasons of Ladakh

Ladakh is a land of shifting light, vast skies, and changing colors — a place where every season paints the mountains in a different mood, and each brings its own quiet magic.

Spring (April – May)

Spring arrives gently in Ladakh. Snow begins to melt along the ridges, streams come alive, and the valleys start turning soft shades of green. Apricot and apple trees blossom in bursts of pale pink and white, filling villages with fragrance and new life. Days are pleasant, skies are radiant, and there is a sense of calm renewal everywhere. It is a beautiful time for slow walks, village visits, and soaking in the region’s stillness.

Summer (June – August)

Summer is when Ladakh shines in its full glory. The high-altitude sun lights up the mountains, rivers run clear and blue, and the air feels fresh and boundless. Monasteries hold festivals, trekking trails open, and the region buzzes softly with travelers and pilgrims. Long daylight hours allow for exploration — from turquoise lakes and high passes to bustling bazaars and ancient monasteries. Life feels expansive, warm, and full of possibility.

Autumn (September – October)

Autumn is Ladakh’s season of gold. Village fields turn amber with the harvest, poplar trees glow bright yellow, and the skies become crystalline and deeply blue. The air grows crisp, the crowds thin, and the landscapes turn poetic. It is a time of reflection, of golden walks through quiet lanes, and serene mountain views that seem almost unreal. For many, it is the most enchanting time to be here.

Winter (November – March)

Winter wraps Ladakh in silence. Snow blankets the mountains, prayer flags flutter against clear, icy skies, and village life moves at a gentle, unhurried pace. It is a season for warmth — woodfires, butter tea, shared stories, and deep peace. The beauty is stark, spiritual, and intimate. For those seeking solitude and authenticity, winter offers a Ladakh that feels untouched and deeply soulful.

Each season in Ladakh tells its own story — one of nature, culture, and time.
To experience Ladakh is to witness these seasons unfold, each revealing a different facet of the land’s timeless grace.
