Spiti Valley Circuit Group Trip
Overview
The Spiti Valley Circuit journey is renowned as one of the most exhilarating road trips, offering a surreal landscape where mountains meet the sky and the atmosphere is infused with enchantment. Situated in Himachal Pradesh, Spiti Valley is often dubbed the cold desert of India, comparable to Ladakh in altitude. Surrounded by towering mountain ranges, including the Himalayas to the south and the Kunzum range to the north, it features barren landscapes, rugged mountains, and deep gorges. The Spiti River, originating from the Kunzum range, traverses the valley, earning its name "the middle land" for its position between Tibet and India. Despite its harsh climate, with freezing temperatures even in summer and heavy winter snowfall, Spiti Valley is renowned for its ancient monasteries, such as the iconic Key Monastery and the Tabo Monastery, adding cultural richness to its rugged terrain.
