The Spiti Valley is a desert mountain valley located high in the Himalaya mountains in the north-eastern part of the Indian state of Himachal Pradesh. The name "Spiti" means "The Middle Land", i.e. the land between Tibet and India.
It possesses a distinctive Buddhist culture similar to that found in the nearby Tibet Autonomous Region and the Ladakh region of India. The valley and surrounding region is one of the least populated regions in India and is the gateway to the northernmost reaches of the nation. Along the northern route from Manali, Himachal Pradesh or Keylong via the Rohtang Pass or Kunzum Pass respectively, the valley lies in the North East of the Indian hill state of Himachal Pradesh, and forms part of the Lahaul and Spiti district. The sub-divisional headquarters (capital) is Kaza, Himachal Pradesh which is situated along the Spiti River at an elevation of about 12,500 feet (3,800 m) above mean sea level.
Lahaul and Spiti is surrounded by high mountain ranges. The Rohtang Pass, at 13,054 feet (3,979 m), separates Lahul and Spiti from the Kullu Valley. Lahul and Spiti are cut off from each other by the higher Kunzum Pass, at 15,059 feet (4,590 m). A road connects the two divisions, but is cut off frequently in winter and spring due to heavy snow. The valley is likewise cut off from the north up to eight months of the year by heavy snowfalls and thick icing conditions. A southern route to India proper is periodically closed for brief periods in the winter storms of November through June, but road access is usually restored a few days after storms end via Shimla and the Sutlej in the Kinnaur district.
Himachal Pradesh's Spiti district is essentially a summer destination, but if you're looking for a heady high altitude winter road trip with lots of ice and snow driving. This is where you should head. Make sure you're at the wheel of a Toyota Fortuner though!
This is a short video of my trip to Spiti Valley in August 2014. I shot this video on my Nokia Lumia 925 and also on Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and Samsung Galaxy S4. Spiti Valley is a desert mountain valley located high in the Himalaya mountains in the north-eastern part of the Indian state of Himachal Pradesh. The name "Spiti" means "The Middle Land", i.e. the land between Tibet and India. It wouldn't have been possible with the help of Mr.Gokal Chand (Happy Campers), Sanju and Mintoo and also my best buddies Parag Bankar, Amey Hatiskar and Parag Pardhi.

1000 years ago Rinchen Zangpo, the Great Translator, saved Buddhism from persecutions by hiding Buddha's teachings (Dharma) in the sPiti Valley. In 1933 Giuseppe Tucci, the gret tibetologist, made an expedition to this remote valley looking for the treasures hidden by Rinchen Zangpo. He found the ancient monasteries falling in ruin. Tucci reports that the few monks left were living in extremely poor material and spiritual conditions. In 1959 Tibetan Buddhism is persecuted again, this time by Maoists: the highly educated Lamas who weren't killed fled across the Himalaya. Some of these holy men took refuge in sPiti, exactly as it happened 10 centuries earlier, bringing with them loads of knowledge. Using Tucci's 1933 journal and pictures, we followed his footsteps to see how this Valley o...

I'm lying here tonight thinking of the days we've had
Wondering if the world would be so beautiful
If I had not looked into your eyes
How did you know that I've been waiting?
I never knew the world would be so beautiful at all;
I'm spending all the days dreaming of the nights we've had
I never knew that love would be a miracle
When I think of all the ones before
But now that I've found you I am flying
I never knew that love would be so beautiful to me
I never knew that love would be so beautiful to me;
And when we dance to the rhythm that is burning like a flame
And when you touch me I can hardly move you take my breath away
You give me all that I want to feel when we become as one
And then you take me to the heaven of your heart;
Did nobody ever tell you you're the best thing that has ever been;
Ah ... you ... ah ... so beautiful ... ah ... so beautiful ...
I'm standing here tonight thinking of the time we'll have
I never knew that you would be so beautiful
From the day you came into my life
I just want to say you make me happy
I never knew that you would be so beautiful to me
I never knew that you would be so beautiful to me;
So beautiful to me ...
So beautiful to me ...
So beautiful to me ...
... to me;
I'm lying here tonight
I'm dreaming here tonight
