The trip is perfect for those looking for an offbeat experience, adventure, and mesmerizing landscapes.

Day 1: Arrival in Shimla – Gateway to the Himalayas
Your winter journey begins in Shimla, the capital of Himachal Pradesh. Arrive and settle into your cozy hotel before heading out to explore the town. Walk along the famous Mall Road, visit Christ Church, and enjoy a cup of hot chai with a stunning view of the snow-covered hills. Rest well as tomorrow’s adventure takes you deeper into the Himalayas.

Day 2: Shimla to Kalpa – Into the Kinnaur Valley
After an early breakfast, begin the scenic drive toward Kalpa, passing through breathtaking snow-covered forests and charming villages. The road follows the Sutlej River, offering stunning views at every turn. Upon arrival in Kalpa, check into a warm guesthouse and witness the majestic Kinner Kailash peaks glowing at sunset. The chilly air, the crisp snow, and the serene surroundings make for a perfect winter experience.

Day 3: Kalpa to Tabo – Entering the Frozen Spiti
The journey continues deeper into the mountains as you make your way towards Tabo, crossing Nako, a picturesque village known for its frozen lake in winter. Witness the barren mountains transform into a white paradise, with icicles hanging from rooftops and locals wrapped in warm woolens. Upon arrival in Tabo, check into a guesthouse and visit the 1,000-year-old Tabo Monastery, one of the oldest in the region. As the sun sets, experience the peaceful silence that only Spiti’s winter can offer.

Day 4: Tabo to Kaza – The Heart of Spiti
After breakfast, continue toward Kaza, the largest town in Spiti Valley. The road passes through Dhankar, an ancient monastery precariously perched on a cliff. If weather permits, take a short hike to the frozen Dhankar Lake, where the crystal-clear ice creates a magical winter wonderland. Upon reaching Kaza, settle into a traditional homestay, where you’ll experience Spitian hospitality with warm butter tea and home-cooked food.

Day 5: Exploring Kaza & the High-Altitude Villages
Wake up to a breathtaking view of snow-covered landscapes and begin your exploration of Spiti’s high-altitude villages. Visit Hikkim, home to the world’s highest post office, and send a postcard to your loved ones. Next, travel to Komic, the highest motorable village in the world, where the snow-covered fields stretch endlessly. Finally, reach Langza, famous for its giant Buddha statue overlooking the valley. As the sun sets, return to Kaza, warm up by a heater, and enjoy the simple yet delicious local cuisine.

Day 6: Key Monastery & Frozen Rivers
No visit to Spiti is complete without exploring the iconic Key Monastery, an ancient Tibetan monastery perched dramatically on a hilltop. The monastery, covered in snow, looks straight out of a fairytale. Spend time with the monks, witness the ancient murals, and soak in the peaceful atmosphere. If weather conditions allow, visit the frozen Spiti River, where the icy landscape creates mesmerizing reflections.

Day 7: Kaza to Kalpa – Retracing the Frozen Trails
Bid farewell to Kaza as you start your journey back towards Kalpa. The return journey offers stunning winter landscapes, with the sun casting golden hues over the white valleys. Stop along the way for hot chai and local snacks to keep warm. Upon arrival in Kalpa, check into your guesthouse and enjoy one last evening in the serene Himalayan surroundings.
