Overview
A road trip to Spiti Valley is on every traveler's bucket list and the reason is that Spiti, with its desert mountains, snow-covered valleys, and lush green meadows remains one of the most beautiful destinations that our country has to offer.
Nestled between India and Tibet, the word Spiti itself translates to “the middle land.” In recent times, the valley has gotten an abundance of tourists seeking the place for the serenity it provides as well as the adventure that the wicked terrains of Spiti provide you.
In this Spiti valley road trip, we make sure that you get to make the most out of the experience and witness the mesmerizing Spiti Valley in all its glory as well as indulge in the thrill that the impassable roads of Spiti have to offer.
Spiti Valley acts as a bridge between two distinct cultures and is the horizon on which people from these diverse cultures come together to build the foundation that Spiti itself stands upon. The valley is known for its century-old monasteries and the rich Buddhist influence that is still prevalent in every village today.
The people of Spiti believe in leading simple lives. It wasn’t until only five or six years ago that they even had electricity and since water is scarce in the cold desert that Spiti is, life can be tough. But the resilience with which people live their lives is not only commendable but also inspiring. Spending even a few days amidst the locals, interacting with them, and witnessing Spiti through their eyes is enough to make you fall in love with the land of Lamas.
This road trip to Spiti valley allows you to witness the wonder of nature and marvel at the blending landscapes of lofty mountains, green meadows, and barren roads that are perfect for off-roading, all existing in one place. It is also the perfect kind of long drive where scenic views rush you by in the backdrop as you embark on a journey of a lifetime.
The best part is that since this Spiti valley road trip starts from Delhi, with Manali at its first halt, there’s a chance for you to indulge in local sightseeing at Manali and spend the rest of the day at leisure. After a brief tour session conducted by our trip leader, we will officially start our journey by heading towards Kaza which is the administrative headquarters of Spiti.
The Spiti river flows relentlessly through the northwest regions of this beautiful town, providing a serene backdrop that never fails to mesmerize the onlookers. Apart from its natural beauty, Kaza also holds extreme significance as it is the connecting link between Spiti and Lahaul and remains one of the oldest towns in the entire country.
Other than the majestic mountains and impassable roads that provide thrill-seekers the opportunity for off-roading, Spiti Valley is famous for holding some of the most quaint villages in its embrace. Mudh, Komic, and Langza are one of the few villages where you will get to experience life at a small pace. Without a visit to these villages and interacting with the locals, you’ll never get to experience Spiti Valley to its fullest.
Buddhism has its roots running all across the valley and influences the lives of the people here so it's only natural that you get to see some of the best monasteries in the country.
The first monastery that we will visit is Kungri monastery. Built in the 14th century, it is the only monastery that follows the Nyingmapa order of Buddhism, which is the oldest order of Tibetan Buddhism. It represents the prevalence of Tibetan culture and its richness that has been present in the Pin valley for centuries now.
After paying our reverence at the monastery, we will visit Mudh, a village nestled at the banks of the Pin river with Parvati ranges overlooking the tiny hamlet. It is also the gateway to Pin valley national park.
Founded in 996 C.E., Tabo monastery is the oldest operating domain with the walls still covered in murals and thangka paintings depicting tales from the Buddhist pantheon. Apart from that, there are manuscripts, statues, and other wooden structures of historical as well as the spiritual significance that has made the monastery a national historic treasure of India.
Initially built as a fort monastery, Dhankar monastery now sits atop a spurring rock, overlooking the confluence of the Spiti river and Pin river just between the town of Kaza and Tabo. The jagged yet charming landscape, a statue of Buddha, and various thangka paintings are just a few things that add to the charm of the Dhankar monastery.
Kaza is the gateway to Hikkim which houses the Highest Post Office in the world, and if you are someone who loves all things old school, then you can send a letter to a dear one from here. Many tourists love taking a trip down nostalgia lane with Hikkim as it allows you to experience the simple intimacy of writing words instead of simply typing them.
Another village that we will visit while on this road trip to Spiti valley is Komic which is the highest village in the world at an altitude of 15,500 ft connected by a motorable road. Another village, Langza where you’ll find an abundance of fossils as well as the warm hospitality of the locals is where we make sure to pay a visit. Not just because of the quaint life of this tiny hamlet but to make you see the 1000-year-old Buddha statue that overlooks the village as a watchful protector and to ward off all kinds of evil.
Key monastery or as the locals call it Kye Gompa is the largest as well as the oldest monastery in Spiti valley. It is also the training center for Lamas who will grow up to serve and preserve the culture of Spiti. Ancient relics, murals, and even images of Buddha are still preserved in the monastery and remain the main attraction for tourists.
On our way to our next destination, we will make brief stops at a few places. One of them is Kibber, one of the highest inhabited villages in Spiti Valley elevated at an altitude of 14,200 ft. above sea level, and an abode to snow leopards and if you are lucky, you might get a chance to see one.
And even if you don’t, the serene beauty of the village itself is enough to captivate you. The next attraction before we resume our actual journey is Asia’s highest bridge, Chicham which is elevated at a staggering height of more than 13,500ft and connects the village of Chicham with Kibber.
Nestled in the Kunzum Range of the Himalayas, India’s highest motorable mountain road, Kunzum pass is our stop where you can see traces of Buddhist influence in the form of prayer flags all around the pass, fluttering along with the winds.
Next up is The Chandratal Lake. Shaped like a crescent moon remains one of the most popular tourist destinations in Spiti valley. The crystal clear lake provides a peaceful backdrop for people to just sit and spend some moments completely at peace and is the perfect spot to conclude this Spiti valley road trip before we start our return journey.
The best time to visit Spiti Valley, especially if you want to make sure to experience it in all its glory, is from February to April as the entire region is covered in a thick blanket of snow.
If you love adventures, then this trip will allow you to take part in many. You can river raft in Spiti river or Pin valley, or take a safari on a Yak to explore the premise. In a nutshell, the Spiti Valley road trip is a perfect combination of adventure and peace, an experience you simply cannot miss out on.

That is the Spiti Valley…
A road trip to Spiti Valley, whether it’s summer or winter, is a dream of every traveler. And why is that a dream? It proudly showcases some of the most isolated vistas on the planet, as well as some of the highest settlements in the world.
As you step into Spiti Valley, you are greeted by long, winding roads and valleys that offer breathtaking views of the cold desert and snow-capped mountains. Surrounded by the mighty Himalayas, Spiti Valley in Himachal Pradesh sits at an altitude of 12,500 feet above sea level, receiving only about 250 days of sunshine annually, making it one of the chilliest places in the nation.
The name "Spiti" translates to 'The Middle Land', signifying its location between India and Tibet. This region is adorned with numerous ancient monasteries, including the magnificent Key Monastery, which is over a millennium old and stands as the largest monastery in Spiti Valley.
Spiti, with its sparse population, is a haven for adventure enthusiasts, offering a plethora of trekking routes and mountain passes to explore. Kunzum La provides a mesmerizing 360-degree vista of the Bara-Shigri Glacier, the world's second-longest glacier.
Another enchanting destination is Chandratal Lake, where the water transforms from reddish hues to shades of orange, blue, and emerald green as dusk approaches. Due to heavy snowfall isolating Spiti from the rest of the country for approximately six months each year, the summer season remains the sole period when Spiti is directly accessible by road.

How to Reach Spiti Valley
To reach Spiti Valley in summer and winter, you have two main routes to consider. In summer, you can access Spiti Valley from both Manali and Shimla.

Winter Spiti Valley: In contrast, winter in Spiti Valley transforms the region into a snowy wonderland, offering a unique and challenging adventure.

What a trip!!!!
The number of exclamation marks says it all. This was an absolutely breathtaking journey through the stunning Spiti Valley, and I can’t thank the amazing team leads enough – Prajwal Bhai, Abhishek Bhai, and Arvind Bhai – for making it such a memorable adventure. From the very beginning, they were not just our guides but our pole bearers, always looking out for us and leading the way with enthusiasm and care.
A massive shoutout to JustWravel and these incredible captains. Their expertise, energy, and genuine love for the mountains made all the difference.
A huge thanks also to our rock-solid support staff – Jhonny Bhai and Prakash Bhai – who were like our shadows throughout the trip. Whether it was a simple breakdown or a more complicated situation, they had our backs and kept everything running smoothly.
This was my first group trip, and to be honest, I was a little unsure at first. But now, I’m so glad I took the plunge. The memories made, the people I met, and the landscapes we explored – it was all worth it.
As they say, the beauty of a place is enhanced when you have good company – and this trip proved that a hundred times over.
From the moment we set off, the team leads' passion for Spiti was evident. Along with our skilled driver Abhishek and our ever-energetic Prajwal Ustaadji, they navigated the legendary – and sometimes nerve-wracking – roads of Spiti with such calm and confidence. They made sure we were safe while letting us soak in every jaw-dropping view – snow-capped peaks, icy stretches, and the raw, untouched beauty of the cold desert.
We explored magical places like Chitkul, Langza with its majestic Buddha statue, the serene Nako, the ancient Tabo Monastery, the vibrant hub of Kaza, and of course, visited Hikkim – home to the world’s highest post office. Each stop was perfectly timed and thoughtfully curated.
What truly elevated this experience were the impeccable arrangements. The accommodations were fantastic – cozy and comfortable even in the most remote corners of Spiti. And the food? Absolutely delicious and hearty – just what we needed after long days of exploring.
This trip to Spiti was unforgettable, and it’s all thanks to the brilliance of our team leads and the top-notch organization by JustWravel.
If you’re dreaming of exploring Spiti Valley, I wholeheartedly recommend going with them – you’ll be in the best hands!

I recently had an opportunity to explore Spiti valley through Justwravel in the Spiti road trip along with our trip leader Prajwal. He made all of us very comfortable from the first day. The arrangements and stays were on point.Due to the high altitude, when some of our group members had breathing issues, he took great care of them and made sure all of us were fit and healthy to continue the rest of the trip. It was only because of him that we could visit Chandrataal and it was absolutely surreal.
I would highly recommend justwravel for more travel destinations and am myself looking forward to many more such trips with justwravel!!

A big shoutout to Prajwal Pathak, our trip captain, who ensured we were comfortable throughout the journey. His energy, local knowledge, and dedication made a huge difference. I was especially impressed with how he managed to take us to Chandratal Lake despite the challenging weather — something I truly appreciate!
The stays arranged throughout the trip were clean, comfortable, and offered some of the best views. After long travel days, the cozy stays really helped us recharge and made the experience even more special. The hospitality at each place was warm and welcoming, adding to the overall comfort.
Also, a special thanks to Binu, our tempo driver, who skillfully navigated some of the most difficult roads with great patience, ensuring our safety at every step.
I’m 100% satisfied with the itinerary, stays, and the way the entire trip was organized. I would definitely recommend Just Travel to anyone looking to explore these breathtaking regions with a well-managed, friendly, and responsible team.
Thank you for this amazing journey! 😊✨

What an amazing trip! The captains Rohit Saini and Akash(Wanderlust Pahadi) were absolutely fun and accommodating. Received the best possible facilities in terms of hotels and food. Would definitely recommend travelling with them.

This was undoubtedly the best trip I’ve ever had, and choosing JustWravel was one of the best decisions I’ve made. I can’t stop talking about Prajwal ji and Mehak ji, our amazing marshals throughout the journey. Their constant support, no matter the hour, made the entire experience smooth and comfortable. Mehak ji, a heartfelt thank you for sharing survival tips and new techniques with us ,they truly came in handy.
I’d also like to extend my deepest gratitude to Ram bhai, Vikram bhai, and Uttam bhai for always being there when we needed assistance. Spiti Valley, with its breathtaking landscapes and ever-changing terrains, was simply magical. The off-roading experience added an adventurous thrill to the journey, making it even more memorable.
Thank you soo muchh , JustWravel, for such an unforgettable experience!!!
