About this tour

Spiti in winters is a land of silence, snow, and stunning beauty. The valleys turn white with thick layers of snow, and the tall mountains look even more majestic under the clear blue skies. Many travelers plan a trip to Spiti Winter from Chandigarh to see the frozen rivers, quiet villages, and star-filled nights that make the valley magical. It is one of the coldest inhabited places in India, yet it offers peace and breathtaking views for those who visit during this season.
