Private room ∙ 2 guests | Resort in Lachen

Lhakhim Homestay means "House on the pass"- A refuge for life's great adventures tucked away from the usual, well-trodden trekking routes, Lhakhim Hoemstay in Lachen offers a humbling welcome immersed in sweeping views of the gnarled landscape strewn with formidable peaks. Perched on a hillock, Lhakhim Hoemstay gazes directly into the monumental, overlapping himalayan range along the Tibetan border. A stay at Lhakhim, is perhaps, the only way to appreciate the Himalayas-spending time within the ancient village of lachen, all the while absorbing the rhythms of the world's fiercest mountain range staring right back at you and, no doubt, the hardships and vagaries of a life in the mountains.
