Border Cafe and Camp Turtuk — Hotel in Ladakh Range

An Unforgettable Stay in the Majestic Mountains!

I recently had the opportunity to embark on an incredible stay at the Border Cafe and Camp Turtuk located in the stunning Siachen mountains. It was an experience that left me breathless and filled with unforgettable memories. Here's why this camp deserves the highest praise:

Firstly, the location of the camp is simply awe-inspiring. Nestled amidst the towering peaks and on a bank on River Shyok, it offers a true escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The serene surroundings create a perfect backdrop for outdoor activities.

What truly sets this camp apart is the knowledge of Owner, Mr Farooq Salman. He is very passionate about sharing love for the Siachen mountains and stories around them. The camp facilities were top-notch as well. The accommodations were cozy, comfortable, and well-maintained, providing a much-needed respite after a 8 hour drive from Leh.

Additionally, the camp staff was friendly, attentive, and always ready to assist with any needs. Their warm hospitality added a personal touch to the...

Tyakshi is the last village in India at India-Pakistan border. It was belongs to Pakistan till 1971 war. Village opened to tourism since 2010. The village located above mountain and hidden from outside or National Highway. We have to take a detour and to walk 300M to reach the village. It is simply a hidden treasure at the border located near shyaok river and in himalayan mountains. The village is also historically very important. Visiting the place will definitely change your mindset about mountain village and border life. It will also question our thoughts about religion, countries, borders etc. A best place to relax...

Talking about border cafe camp, the Management is very supportive and friendly like all the villagers of Tyakshi. Hospitality 👍👍. All of them have lot to show you and stories to tell. Food is fantastic, especially the KAWA the apricot flavoured. They even served us fresh fish from Shayok river. Prices are reasonable.

Farooq bhai and Javed bhai - its not just about the place. Its also about you guys, friends... Will...

We stayed at Tyakshi border view Cafe and camp, Turtuk on 14th May 2023. We were a group of 10 and will tell you that the tents are very comfortable with good, neat and clean attached baths. We reached the camp by 4pm and were treated to a refreshing khawa and some snacks. A special mention here for Mr Farooqui who is also the owner of the unit. He went out of his way to make us feel comfortable. He even took us on a small trail to the shyok River, telling us a lot about the place and the local people. The food was yummy and hot. They also had organized a bon fire to keep us warm in the cold weather. They provided hot water in buckets for the needs. The place was between two mountains and along the river - amazing views. In short it was a pleasant stay made even better by Mr Farooqui. Thank you Would recommend anyone to stay there...
