Overview

A world inside of a world Rudyard Kipling described the Spiti Valley as “no place for men, surely the Gods must reside here. With its still life sceneries for picture postcards of the arid, chilly desert, this remote resting land’s rustic beauty will astound you. The brilliant blue skies, turquoise lakes, and dangerously situated monasteries provide complete justification for Rudyard’s assertion. This land of myths and mysteries is sure to satisfy your adventurous soul in every way and give you a tonne of memories to treasure for life, from getting goosebumps while gazing at the 500-year-old self-mummified body of a Buddhist monk at Gue to feeling the chills as you look down upon a tiny truck from Asia’s highest suspended Chicham bridge.
