EXPLORE SPITI WITH CHANDRATAL
from ₹0.00
On request
Every year for six months, the Himalayan valleys of Kinnaur and Spiti emerge from a thick cloak of snow to reveal a different secret world to man. Rivers start to flow with unseen fury, the earth turns a swathe of colour, mountains unlock secret doorways and local inhabitants come out in celebration of itself. At dizzying heights of 2600m to 4200m, the experience is almost surreal. Gods and nature seem to lure man, perhaps even challenge him to make the journey into their den of barren deserts, fierce mountains, turbulent rivers, dense forests and moody skies. This is your journey of discovery in the lesser known Himalayas.
