How does playing at Leh Golf Course's high altitude affect my game, and what should I keep in mind?

You'll definitely notice your ball flies further in the thinner air, so adjust your club selection accordingly - you might be surprised.

How accessible is Leh Golf Course, and what are your top travel tips for getting there and preparing for the trip?

Getting to Leh typically involves a flight into Leh Kushok Bakula Rimpochee Airport, followed by a short drive to the course. We strongly advise spending at least 1-2 days acclimatizing in Leh before playing to avoid altitude issues. Plan your travel well in advance, especially for flights during peak season.
