The classic Spiti Valley circuit through the Trans-Himalaya — a high-altitude cold desert of thousand-year-old monasteries, fluttering prayer flags and impossibly blue skies. From Shimla you climb to Chitkul, 'India's last village', then trace the Sutlej and Spiti rivers through Kalpa, Nako and Tabo to Kaza. Send a postcard from Hikkim's highest post office, stand in Komic and Langza, see the 500-year-old Gue mummy, visit the Dhankar and Key monasteries, cross Asia's highest Chicham bridge and camp under the Milky Way at crescent-shaped Chandratal before crossing the Atal Tunnel back to Manali. From ₹19,990 pp ex-Delhi (6N/7D, triple sharing); ₹21,290 / ₹23,990 pp ex-Ahmedabad (8N/9D, Non-AC / AC sleeper train); couple-sharing ₹2,000 pp extra.
After an overnight Volvo from Delhi, meet your representative in Shimla for a tour briefing and breakfast near Narkanda, then drive on through the Sangla and Kinnaur valleys to Chitkul — the last inhabited village before the Indo-China border. Check in, then swap stories around a warm bonfire. Overnight at Chitkul.
Wake to a beautiful Himalayan sunrise. Visit the famous 'Hindustan ka Akhri Dhaba' and the local Mathi temple, then drive to Kalpa along the Baspa river. If time permits, visit the village monastery and temple in the evening. Overnight in Kalpa, overlooking the Kinnaur Kailash range.
Drive the Indo-Tibet highway towards Tabo, stopping at the famous Suicide Point and the Khab bridge where the Spiti and Sutlej rivers meet. Enter Spiti via Sumdo, visit the Gue monastery and its 500-year-old mummy, and pause at Nako lake and monastery. Reach Tabo by evening. Overnight at Tabo.
Drive towards Dhankar to visit its 1,000-year-old monastery set among rocky spurs, then explore Pin Valley National Park — the only green pocket in this cold desert and home to endangered Himalayan wildlife. Reach Kaza by evening; the rest of the day is free. Overnight at Kaza.
A full-day excursion of upper Spiti: the giant Buddha statue at Langza, the high-altitude village of Komic and its Tang Gyud monastery, then Hikkim — home to the world's highest post office, where you can mail a postcard to your loved ones. Back to Kaza by evening. Overnight at Kaza.
Cross Asia's highest suspension bridge at Chicham and stop at Key Gompa, the oldest monastery in Spiti. Continue to the crescent-shaped Chandratal lake, cradled between mountains and a cirque. Check in to the campsite. Overnight in camps under the Milky Way.
Drive back towards Manali via the Kaza road, with a pit stop at the famous Chacha Chachi Dhaba and a crossing of the Atal Tunnel through stunning landscape. Enjoy some leisure time at Manali's cafés, then board the evening Volvo to Delhi (arriving the next morning).

Moderate. There's no major trekking, but Spiti sits at roughly 3,000–4,500 m with long mountain drives, so come prepared for high altitude and simple mountain stays. Give yourself time to acclimatise and stay hydrated.
