Winters in the Desert Mountains of the Spiti Valley have been challenging mankind for many centuries. Nevertheless, the white winterscape never fails to evoke wonder and excitement in those who look for adventure.
Spiti Winter Drive is one of the most popular winter safaris in the world and for good reason – you experience sub-zero temperatures but earn heart-warming experiences. Experience the rush of adrenaline as your four-wheeled drive navigates through the ice roads and snowed paths of Kinnaur leading upto Kaza. We spend a couple of days absorbing the wonderland of remote villages where people brave the cold weather at 45oo metres above the sea level!
Visit the captivating monasteries of the region and learn about the lifestyle of the monks who have been living in the heart of the cold deserts. Be prepared for unparalleled photography and videography opportunities amongst one of the world’s highest and picturesque desert mountains.
This is an unparalleled opportunity to drive through the snow-covered mountains of Kaza. Get a chance to explore some of Asia’s highest villages and understand how they sustain themselves during winters when the snow puts everything to sleep. Ski on some of the most expansive ski slopes in India and, if you’re lucky, spot the fabled snow-leopard!
The expedition will be led by an experienced team of drivers, terrain experts and mountaineers who are equipped to deal with the harsh conditions of the mountains.

This is an adventurous and challenging expedition so it is a good idea to prepare yourself physically – start a regular exercise regimen at least a month in advance. Try cardio-based exercises to increase your stamina and breathing exercises to enhance the oxygen absorption in the blood. This will help avoid altitude sickness during the expedition.
IF the weather conditions are bad, we will not push the trip beyond what is safe. Although we plan the Expedition in accordance to the weather predictions, he duration or the dates are subject to change if the weather changes for the worse. In any case, the team is well trained to handle harsh weather conditions in the mountains – so you will be safe with us!
