Package Overview

Winters in the mountains is the most amazing time of the year. As the dust of the summers settle down and the temperature plummets, the incoming snowfall transforms the landscape from golden brown to pristine white. It ends a cycle of life to give way to the new beginnings of new year. As the roads to Spiti have seen significant improvement in the recent years, visiting Spiti in winters has become much easier. As the Spitians are opening their warm houses for guests the tourism during winters is on the rise. We bring you a great week long itinerary to show you the best of Spiti in winters. Be among the first few who explore the valley in winters with us.
