FAQ

Can you visit Spiti in winter?

Yes, but only through Kinnaur: from November to May the Manali road is closed. January lows can fall near −30 °C, so winter trips suit experienced, well-prepared travellers. We run them on request.

Will I see a snow leopard?

There is no guarantee. Local spotters track wildlife around Kibber Wildlife Sanctuary on slow, cold days, and sightings depend on the weather, luck and patience.

Where does the winter trip start?

In Shimla. From there we drive in through Kinnaur to Kaza and on to Kibber.
