Overview

Adventure Geek invites you to Spiti Valley Tour

Located in the Northern state of Himachal Pradesh, ‘Spiti Valley’ or ‘Lahaul-Spiti’ as it is alternatively known, is a cold desert mountain valley famous for its panoramic landscapes and unexplored tourist spots. The word ‘Spiti’ literally translates into ‘middle-land’ in English, as it signifies the land between Tibet and India. One of the most sparsely populated regions in India, Spiti Valley is predominantly home to Vajrayana Buddhism followers. Also regarded as the gateway to the mystical Ladakhi region, Lahaul-Spiti is directly accessible only by road to the general public during the summer months of April to October.

The Spiti Valley is surrounded by high mountain ranges on both sides as it is separated from the Kullu Valley in Himachal Pradesh by the Rohtang Pass (13,054 feet or 3979m), and Lahaul and Spiti are separated by the Kunzum Pass (15,059 feet or 4590m). Both the mountain passes are connected by the Leh-Manali national highway which often gets disconnected during the winter months due to excessive snowfall but Spiti is connected through the Shimla Kinnaur route.
