Good morning, sleepyhead! Time to have some wholesome breakfast, after which, we check out from the hotel and drive towards Chitkul. Time for another round of jam as we drive for seven hours straight, when all of us bathroom singers shall unite and present a show. We even play some fun games on the way, finally reaching Chitkul!

Just kidding. While the ride is going to be super bumpy, this view from your window will surprise you with a gradually changing landscape. Throughout the drive, we shall all engage in a lot of drama and give each other names. We come up with the most unique names for each other, ranging from ‘drama queen’, to ‘style icon’ to ‘humorous ninja’, making our road trip more memorable than ever. A couple of times, we will also cross some enchanting bridges filled with Buddhist prayer flags. How beautiful does that sound?
After a long scenic drive, we finally reached Nako. Nako is situated at 12014ft above level and glitters with the backdrop of Reo Purgyal, the highest mountain in Himachal Pradesh. We visit the famous Nako Lake, where Guru Padmasambhava, a leader revered by Buddhists all around the world, has his footprints imprinted on a rock.

We cross several villages like Chango and Sumdo on our route to Kaza. We will take a break in Tabo to visit one of the oldest and significant monasteries in Spiti Valley. We visit two monasteries- the old one and the new one and get lost in their rich history.
Our second spot for today is Dhankar Monastery. Unlike the other monasteries in Spiti, this monastery is isolated from the rest of the valley. It’s located on the top of a hill, overlooking the Spiti and the Pin river confluence. The landscape around will inspire every travel enthusiast’s soul.

Day 6:- Kaza – Kibber – Langza- Kaza
If there’s anything that makes Spiti a hundred times more fascinating, it is the never-ending stretch of beautiful hamlets hidden in remote corners. These beautiful Spitian hamlets radiate love and unravel stories like no other place. Today, we drive through beautiful stretches of barren lands and mountains that you’ve never witnessed before! First, we reach Key. On reaching Key monastery, we step into the most popular monasteries in India. You will realize that the monastery has enough reasons to be loved by all.

Tonight, it is time for us to get lost in the bygone vibes. And how can we let go of this beautiful night without some fun games and activities? “Main Prem Ki Diwani Hu”, “Munna Bhai”, “Phir Hera Pheri”- Some horrible acting skills and Dumb Charades coming your way, mate!
After some happiest of movie guessing and truth or dare sessions, we soak ourselves in local experience with the awe-inspiring Himachali locals and fellow travellers and spend a relaxing night at Kaza.
Day 7:- Kaza – Chandratal
If you have ever seen pictures of the shimmering, glittering, paradisiacal Chandertal Lake, then reality is even better! After we savour a sumptuous breakfast in Langza, we hop into our vehicle for a beautiful drive to Chanderlake Lake. During our drive, we also cross Kunzum-La-Pass, which remains blocked due to snow during winter. It is one of the highest passes in India.
Very soon, we reach Chandratal and feel mesmerized by its surreal expanse. The evening is spent lazing by the lake and feeling our nerves shiver from the cold breeze. Tonight, we also experience magic underneath the wide expanse of the Milky Way. We stare at the glittering stars while getting lost in warm conversations, and find our inner peace in the process. At night, we say cheers to our friendship, have unparalleled fun over dinner and fall asleep with happy memories in the camp.
Day 8: Chandratal to Manali
Travel Time: 5 Hrs
After experiencing a dreamlike vision at the camp last night, you probably do not want to leave the spot! But we promise you, friend, the fun isn’t over yet. After breakfast, we check out from the hotel and drive to Manali to explore the other preferable road for visiting Spiti. We have fun throughout the trip, reminiscing about a few days and falling in love with the memories, one place at a time.
On the way, we halt next to the famous Atal Tunel and enjoy the snow for a while. Time to have a snow party!!! Come on, let’s roll those snowballs and ATTACK!! They can’t even run for their lives on the slippery snow. 😀 So make full use of the advantage like a boss.
And that’s how we dance on the snow, click some happening pictures against the white background and end our day with glee. By evening, we reach Manali and laugh to our heart’s fulfilment over the mad day we had with snow all around. The trip has finally come to an end. But don’t be sad, friend! We have a year-long list of adventures waiting for you. From Manali, you can book a Volvo to Delhi for your trips back to your home town. Or choose to stay back and spend a few days in Manali. And like we always say- our trip might have ended, but we shall always look back at the memories to cherish them for years to come! So hey, see you soon.
