Spiti Expedition is not only mesmerizing but a different “trip” altogether. We call out all nature, adventure, travel, and photography enthusiasts to experience the unexplored and hidden Spiti culture.

Drive through the Spiti Valley with us and witness the beauty and the struggle to survive it! This Year shed all your fears and set out for the most amazing road trip of your life! Well, yeah – no kidding, but the Spiti Valley Trip is surely not a joke!

You gotta have some courage to put on your warmest clothes and hit the trails that are covered in thick snow, spend days in quaint valleys, stay disconnected from the rest of the world, and listen to your own heartbeats (at times!). If all of it is already giving you goosebumps, then, Ek Karvaan is all set to take you on the trip of your life!

The name “Spiti” means “The middle land”. Spiti Valley is a gorgeous snow-laden barren desert with breathtaking unadulterated beauty. the Spiti Valley is one of the famous places in Himachal Pradesh. Spiti Valley is a cold desert mountain valley located 412 km away from Shimla. There are many places to visit in Spiti Valley. A few of these are Komic Village, Langza Village, Lhalung Monastery, Tabo Caves, and Tabo Monastery. Tabo Monastery is one of the oldest monasteries in the world and a favorite of the Dalai Lama. Spiti is a second home to many Gaddi sheep and goat herders (the nomadic tribe of Himachal) who come to this valley in summer to graze their animals from the surrounding villages.

Join us on this inward journey, as we feel & explore nature at its harshest and yet its finest.
