Overview
Experience the breathtaking beauty of Spiti Valley in winter, when the valley transforms into a spectacular snow-covered Himalayan landscape. This specially planned winter route enters Spiti through Shimla and Kinnaur, as the Manali–Kaza route via Kunzum Pass is generally closed during the winter months. Explore Kalpa, Nako, Tabo and Kaza, followed by the famous high-altitude villages of Key, Kibber, Chicham, Langza, Hikkim and Komic. The journey returns through the same Kinnaur route, making it suitable for the winter season without depending on the closed Kunzum Pass.
