Spiti To Ladakh Trek     Booking Form
 
     
 

The name Spiti (Tibetan: sPiti) means "middle land" : the land between India & Tibet. Extreme weather conditions have kept the breathtakingly beautiful twin paradise of Kinnaur Spiti in Himachal Pradesh out of common tourist itinerary for ages, preserving its cultural innocence and pristine terrain.
Ladakh is called "Little Tibet" and provides the perfect setting for challenge and discovery in a wild lunar landscape.
This specially designed hiking and trekking tour from Spiti to Ladakh in Himalayas is a combined effort of a team of certified mountaineers and travel agents in India aiming at making travel economical and affordably cheap for the budget trekker walking in Ladakh as well as maintaining quality at par with the world-class standards. We feel our job as tour operators and trek guides, is to design treks giving our customers a memorable experience in trekking adventure.
