Spiti Valley Circuit Trip

“Beyond the green hills and bustling towns lies Spiti—an ancient Himalayan desert where monasteries guard centuries of wisdom, rivers carve deep gorges, and the sky feels impossibly close. This journey is not about ticking destinations; it is about slowing down, breathing thin air, and surrendering to a land that humbles every traveler
Spiti doesn’t impress—it transforms”
