Khaltse or Khalsi is a village in the Leh district of Jammu and Kashmir, India. It is located in the Khalsi tehsil, 337 km from Srinagar on the old main road to Leh, where it crossed the Indus over an iron bridge. Much of its importance is because it is the place where the road from Kashmir debouches into the Indus Valley. Close by are the remains of an old fortified customs house.
