All About It

Spiti Valley is a desert mountain valley located high in the Himalaya Mountains in the north-eastern part of the Indian state of Himachal Pradesh. "Spiti" means "The Middle Land", i.e. the land between Tibet and India. The valley is one of the least populated regions in India and is the gateway to the northernmost reaches of the nation. Spiti attracts many riders because of its undisturbed beauty and less crowded roads. The roads are rugged yet too scenic to be tired! The nature is truly in its best form and amazes us every single time. It is one of the toughest terrains in India but trust us, it is totally worth it! So load your saddle bags, tune your bikes and get ready to be mesmerized by the serenity of Kinnor & Spiti! Overall we will be exploring Kinnor Valley (Baspa & Hangrang Valley), Spiti Valley, Pin Valley & Lahaul Valley. Major passes Kunzum top & Rohtang L, Chandratal Lake, . Also riding along Sutluj River,Baspa River, Spiti River, Chandra River, Bhaga river & Beas River. Covering ancient Monasteries Tabo, Ki, Dhankar & Komic. So overall this itinerary offers a great mix of places, terrain, Monasteries, valleys & rivers
