About :-

Perched high in the Himalayas’, Spiti is a cold desert mountain that is formed by the rustic landscapes and exciting roadmaps that make it a perfect destination for roadtrippin’. The Spiti Valley Road trip will take you through the treacherous curves and the high passes will welcome you with open arms.

Ranging from the relics of the rich Buddhist culture to the collection of vantage points, you can witness everything in this quarter which you trace the roads. The mountain gets its name from its meaning which is “the middle land” as Spiti is between India and Tibet and can be reached by the Indo-Tibetan road.

It is snuggled at an elevation 12,500 feet above sea level and a road trip to such high altitude is a crowning stroke!
