Experience

The area around Shakti is perfect for walking and trekking, an hour and a half away on a path surrounded by oak forests is a shrine dedicated to Lord Shiva, this fascinating deity of the Hindu religion, with its magnificent views over the surrounding countryside including the Heeramani Glacier. Pack a picnic, take a fishing rod and hike down to the river and while away the day catching fish, or use the serenity of the surroundings to meditate and practice yoga.

Shakti was conceived to share the rejuvenating effects of remote surroundings- to provide privileged access to places far removed from the noise and clutter of the modern world, where space, peace and epic landscapes provoke the imagination and nourish the soul. In these places of intense beauty with their deep soothing serenity, the traveller can slow down and simply “be”.

Accommodation

The four beautiful guest pavilions have been built using age old local building techniques such as dry stone walling. Beds are comfortable and adorned with pashmina blankets and soft duvets, the living area is the haven where guests can curl up in front of the cosy fireplace and where gourmet food and fine wines are served. Outside, planters chairs are just made for lazing in the sunshine, soaking up the peaceful atmosphere while admiring the beautiful scenery.
