The drive through Spiti Valley is like a roller coaster, thrilling you at every turn, pumping your adrenaline, and satisfying your need for a thrill in every way, leaving you speechless.
Winter in Spiti lasts from November to April, when temperatures can drop to -30 degrees Celsius. Spiti has recently transformed from a land separating Tibet and Himachal Pradesh to a major tourist attraction. Furthermore, Spiti Valley is well-known for three things: its natural beauty, monasteries, and wonderful people.
We take you through all the wonderful places including Kaza, Chitkul a.k.a the last village, Lanza, and Gue to visit the only mummy in India and more unique places. In addition, there are numerous places that make Spiti Valley ideal for any type of traveler. It's a fantastic location for Instagrammers and photographers because there are so many opportunities for great shots. Spiti is well-known as a tourist destination, but it also has a rich historical past.
The Spiti valley unfolds itself as you drive deeper into the rugged landscape, with its vibrant monasteries, snow-clad mountains, small hamlets, glittering lakes, and views that were previously only seen on your Instagram feed.

- Premium trains like Rajdhani and Duranto have a fare of 50% on the higher side than regular trains however they provide the highest confirmation probability and you can always opt for the same.
