Spiti Hostels List

Chandertal Lake Retreat
Set on a large meadow between lower ridge and main Kunzum range , it offers excellent view of Mulkila mountain range and Samudra Tapu Glacier. The color of water keeps changing through out the day from reddish to orange to blue to emerald green as day passes ...
Spiti Valley Camp Retreat
The only audible sounds breaking through the cold ice of this serene valley are those of the river water crashing against the rocks, the howling of the wind and the twitter of an occasional bird. The valley slammed its borders shut when the Chinese invaded Tibet in 1950. Thus it remained untouched, preserving its Tibetan culture in a state of anachronism protected by its political allegiance to India ...
 
The Spiti valley is a desert mountain valley located high in the Himalaya mountains which is periodically cut off totally during winter which possesses a distinctive Buddhist culture similar to that found in nearby Tibet and the Ladakh region of India. The valley and surround region is one of the least populated regions in India and is the gateway to the northernmost possessions of the nation. The Spiti valley is part of the Lahaul and Spiti district (Capital is Keylong) in the Indian state of Himachal Pradesh. Lahul and Spiti are cut off from the rest of the world by high mountain ranges. The Rohtang Pass, at 3,978 metres, separates Lahul and Spiti from the Kullu Valley. Lahul and Spiti are cut off from each other by the higher Kunzum Pass, at 4,550 metres. A road connects the two divisions, but is cut off frequently in winter and spring due to heavy snow. It was the location of the spectacular scenery and cinematography in the 2006 Indian film Milarepa, a biographical adventure tale about one of Buddhisms more famous and well known Tibetan saints. The Buddhist monastery in the valley served as the locus of the set and some of the monks appeared in the film.
