Best video for spoti
Excellent. That one word is enough. At 91 with acute cardiac problems probably out of bounds for me but just returned from Lahaul which was a snowscape from summits to river beds parts of which were frozen due to rather too early and very heavy snowfall. Only 4/4 vehicles were allowed beyond Solang. Having widely traveled in alpine Europe Norway fjords usa mountains etc can say nowhere I saw such awesome views. Carried oxygen cans but surprisingly didn't need it at 12000 ft. With 7/8 layers didn't feel any chill in subzero temperature either. What I needed was self belief that nothing was going to happen to me and that I had in full measure. Went without consulting my cardiologist and when told him on return he said some external forces must have helped u. Why I wrote about myself is that with self belief one can undertake seemingly impossible tasks such as visiting Spiti in winter. I am getting tempted after watching this superb video which prepares u adequately to venture such a trip. I don't own a car any longer so have to convince my son who has a 4/4 and is an adventure traveller. If I am alive till March 23 !
Thank you for this video. I'm going Spiti in March and can't wait for the experience. Your tips will definitely help.

I am from Bangalore, never seen snow for real, never experienced cold below 10-15 degrees. So, I am fearing and obviously madly excited. MADLY! Pray for my well-being there, KZread viewers :) I love to be with the local so I will learn some bit of the language. Want to just make this experience of life! Thank you brother!

Great video journal of the trip. I just did this circuit (Mid December 2021) with a very old friend of mine and the experience was awesome. The only difference was the presence (or absence) of snow on the roads. Everything else I could easily relate to. P.S. I saw this video AFTER our trip

Hey ! Nice Video Bro..i guess we were in Spiti Valley at the same time in Mid March,the landslide part that u have shown was just ahead of Spello village n it took good 7...8 hrs to get accessible...if i m guessing correctly u were a part of the 2 mini bus group that got strucked in the landslide (road widening blast) that got a way too much more than expected by the BRO coz of the geographical structure. Awaiting your reply.👍

Thanks Saurabh. The homestays cost anywhere between ₹500-1500 depending on what kind of room you choose. A double occupancy is around ₹1000 with dinner and breakfast. The altimeter app is inbuilt in iphones.
Brilliant video. Extremely useful . Do you have any trips towards Kinnaur or Spiti again this year in winters I can join . I can’t manage a group as yet 😩

Very informative video..Homestay details please..
Sooo... here's my update: From Shimla, made it to Kalpa and then turned back: too much black ice on the road and I had no experience driving in those conditions plus only a few hundred KMs driving in India. On the other side, made it to Jalori Pass and was advised to turn back just before the steep downhill section began (I think it was near the Mahakali temple). All in all, it was great fun! 👍🤟🗻 Everybody else watching this video... take his advice: if you are driving by yourself, you better be really good at driving in tricky and slippery conditions. Driving on black ice is fun but very dangerous if you are a rookie! ✌ Take care 😉
