People come to Spiti for many reasons – some for the thrill of high-altitude roads, others seeking peace or to explore a culture that’s centuries old. But no matter why they start their journey, everyone leaves with stories.
Take, for instance, the family of 4, who reached out to us at incredible Spiti last summer, eager to escape the city’s chaos. They were looking for adventure but found so much more. With us, they travelled through Spiti’s rough landscapes, their two young kids wide-eyed at the sight of towering mountains and vast skies. One evening, we arranged for them to dine with a local family. Over Tingmo (local steamed bun – perfect for slurping upcurries) and Shapta (chewy, fried meat in a subtle tomato gravy), they exchanged stories, laughing and learning from each other. The kids, initially hesitant, ended up playing with the local children, communicating in the universal language of laughter and games. The family left Spiti with not just photos, but with hearts full of joy and a new perspective on what it means to connect across cultures.
Each person’s journey to Spiti is unique, but the transformation that happens along the way is a common thread. So, if you’re looking for an experience that’s as authentic as it is awe-inspiring, Spiti Valley is calling.
Keep reading this detailed guide to uncover all that Spiti Valley has to offer, from hidden gems to must-see sights, and get ready for an adventure that will change you in ways you never expected.
When is the best time to visit Spiti Valley?

Must know challenges before taking a trip to Spiti Valley
1– Limited connectivity
In Spiti, staying connected can be a bit unpredictable. While you’ll find Jio and Airtel coverage in Kaza and Tabo, the signal isn’t always dependable. In the smaller villages, Jio and BSNL might be your only options. It’s best not to rely solely on these networks for all your communication needs. The quality of network service can fluctuate due to intermittent electricity supply, affecting the stability of internet connections. This may remind you of the early days of mobile and internet technology, requiring a bit more patience. So, during your stay in Spiti, be prepared for a slower pace of digital life, which can actually be quite refreshing, allowing you more time to soak in your surroundings.
2– Dry Toilets in Spiti Valley
In Spiti Valley, dry toilets are the norm, mainly because of the limited water availability and freezing temperatures which can disrupt regular plumbing systems. These toilets do not use water to flush; instead, they rely on composting or separation methods to handle waste. For the best experience and to keep odours at bay, it’s important to throw a scoop of a compost mixture, usually composed of compost and hay, into the toilet after each use — you’ll typically find a shovel provided for this purpose in each restroom.
Practical Tips: Always carry your own tissue and biodegradable wipes as they might not be available everywhere. Be careful with your phone in these facilities; if you drop it, it might be irretrievable.
3- ATMs & payment avenues
In Kaza, you might find an ATM or two, but they don’t always work reliably. It’s wise to carry sufficient cash from larger towns like Manali or Shimla before you travel to Spiti, as you won’t find currency exchange services in the valley. However, digital payments are increasingly common here. UPI and QR code payments through various apps are widely accepted and tend to work well, offering a convenient alternative to cash.
4– Acclimatization
Due to Spiti’s high elevation, which varies between 3,300 to 5,000 meters, acclimatizing is essential for all visitors, whether it’s your first high-altitude experience or not. Gradually ascending is crucial; consider stopping in Kinnaur for a day or two when coming via Shimla, or spend a night in Manali to help your body adjust. If you have any health concerns like heart, knee, or respiratory issues, it’s important to consult with your doctor before heading to Spiti.

Health and Safety Tips
1- Acclimatization: Spend a couple of days at a moderately high altitude to acclimate your body. Avoid strenuous activity during this period. Our suggestion is to Spend at least one night in Manali before heading to Spiti (if you are coming via the Manali route) or ascend gradually from Shimla crossing Kinnaur.
2- Altitude Sickness: Be aware of the symptoms of altitude sickness, which can include headaches, nausea, and difficulty breathing. If symptoms persist, descend to a lower altitude and seek medical help.
