Planning Guide

Overview

  • •Alchi is a village in the Sham district of Ladakh, India.
  • •It is located in the Saspol tehsil, on the banks of the Indus River 70 km (43.49miles) downstream from the capital Leh.
  • •Unlike the other gompas in Ladakh, Alchi is situated on lowland, not on a hilltop.

Accommodation

There are a number of new guesthouses/hotels appearing in the village and you will likely be offered a homestay by one or two old laddies when you arrive- but bargain on price, the villagers don't seem to know the usual rate of hotels in nearby towns and will likely ask far too much.
