Sustainable Initiatives

Environmental Conservation and Social Responsibility

Gangtey Lodge is committed to safeguarding the ancient traditions, culture and pristine environment. The lodge is eco friendly, designed to have minimal impact on the surrounding landscape. Local, recycled and eco-friendly materials were used in construction, the building is designed for maximum energy efficiency, wastewater is recycled and food waste is composted. Each year Gangtey's Green Team plants over 100 trees in the local forest and takes part in monthly anti-litter activities in the valley. Drinking water is filtered, treated and bottled on site, and all of the waste water is recycled for use in resort's gardens or donated to water neighbours’ fields.

Community Empowerment

Gangtey's Green Team implements a variety of projects throughout the year from donating produce from resort's gardens to those in need to assisting elderly members of the community in maintaining their homes. By hiring locally the hotel empowers its local community by bringing opportunity and skills development to such a remote area.
