Accommodation: Deluxe Hotel Meals: Dinner

After a hearty breakfast, we kickstart our epic ride! We leave the city plains behind, ascending into the Shivalik Hills. The ride is long but scenic as we cruise on smooth highways towards Shimla. We'll bypass the main city and continue our journey, descending towards the Sutlej river before climbing again into the lesser-known Seraj Valley. The last stretch of the ride takes us through dense pine forests and winding mountain roads, leading to the hidden gem of Jibhi. Upon arrival, relax, explore the nearby waterfall, and let the tranquility of the mountain paradise sink in.

Today we ride over the beautiful Jalori Pass (3,120m) into the Kinnaur valley. We'll descend to the Sutlej river and ride on the famous Kinnaur road, carved from solid rock. We then take a detour into the stunning Sangla Valley, one of the most beautiful valleys in the Himalayas. Overnight at Sangla, nestled among apple orchards.

Accommodation: Deluxe Camp Meals: Breakfast and Dinner

A short but spectacular day. We ride to Chitkul, the last inhabited village near the Indo-Tibetan border. After spending time by the Baspa river, we ride back and head to the high-perched village of Kalpa. Kalpa offers the most stunning and direct view of the Kinner Kailash range, a sacred 6,000m+ peak.

Accommodation: Deluxe Hotel Meals: Breakfast and Dinner

We officially enter the Spiti Valley today! The landscape changes dramatically from green to a high-altitude cold desert. We'll ride through Nako, visiting the sacred lake, and then on to Tabo to see the 1,000-year-old Tabo Monastery, a UNESCO World Heritage site. We reach Kaza, the main town of Spiti, by evening.

Accommodation: Deluxe Hotel / Deluxe Mud House Meals: Breakfast and Dinner

Today we explore the high-altitude villages around Kaza. We'll ride to Komic (one of the highest villages in the world), visit the world's highest post office at Hikkim (send a postcard!), and explore the iconic Key Monastery. We'll also see the Langza Buddha statue. We return to Kaza for the night.

Accommodation: Deluxe Hotel Meals: Breakfast and Dinner

We leave Kaza and head towards the high Kunzum Pass (4,551m). After paying our respects at the pass, we take a 14km off-road trail to the magical Chandratal, the Moon Lake. We'll camp here for the night at 4,250m under a blanket of stars. This is a camping experience you will never forget.

Accommodation: Basic Camp Meals: Breakfast and Dinner

After breakfast by the lake, we tackle the last of our off-road sections. We ride through Batal and Chhatru, a challenging but adventurous road. We then reach the smooth roads of Lahaul Valley and enter the engineering marvel, the Atal Tunnel. We'll emerge in the green valley of Manali and check into our hotel for a well-deserved hot shower and celebration dinner.

Accommodation: Deluxe Hotel Meals: Breakfast and Dinner

This is the final leg of our epic journey. After an early breakfast, we saddle up one last time to ride from the mountains back to the plains. The journey down from Manali is just as scenic, following the Beas River before hitting the highway. We aim to reach Chandigarh by evening, where the tour officially concludes. You'll be transferred to the airport or your hotel. Congratulations on completing the Spiti circuit!
