Established in 2013, Norden was born from the desire to share the unknown splendors of Tibetan nomadic life with the outside world. Founded by Yidam, born into a nomadic family, and his wife Dechen, daughter of a Tibetan father and European mother, Norden exemplifies a community searching for their voice in a time of change.
Located on winter pasture on the Sangke Grassland at 3,200 meters in altitude, the camp blends the lush landscapes of the Tibetan plateau with contemporary interiors and carefully curated local food, ambiance and experiences. Taking a uniquely Tibetan perspective, Norden builds upon the foundations of ancient traditions to explore new terrains and define a contemporary Tibet.
By sharing its environment and cultural heritage, Norden acts as a platform to amplify the voices of Tibetan artists, craftspeople and those of the surrounding communities.
