The road that leads to Spiti Valley (II)

Delhi – Shimla – Kinnaur – Spiti Valley in April 2016

This post is part of the series – The road that leads to Spiti Valley

Earlier I had shared stunning images of the roads via Shimla – Kinnaur (NH-22)  leading to Spiti Valley. Continuing from Tapri, the virtual tour is here, enjoy the ride 🙂 I had to limit the pictures till Nako, otherwise it was becoming a huge post.

Tapri to Karcham on the way to Spiti

A little break and a quick walk 🙂 near Karcham

Approaching Kalpa, the place with gorgeous views of Kinner Kailash Range

Shongtong Bridge: We observed the bridges on the way were adorned by several Tibetan Prayer Flags and looked so beautiful decorated with them.

Near Nako :), after crossing Nako one enters into Spiti Valley via Sumdo

The luxuriant green Kinnaur changes to ice capped rocky mountains, you’ll fall in love with scenic beauty and the landscape views!! These sure will give you a feel of the road and help you plan your trip to Spiti, maybe even tempt you to experience the thrill of driving on these roads. I shall be sharing Nako – Tabo – Dhankar – Kaza soon 🙂 and those ones are really beautiful. Till then…..

Happy Exploring!!!

Srinagar-Pahalgam-Betaab Valley-Srinagar

Now that was our itinerary for a day!!!

Pahalgam is an enchanting place approx 96 kms away from Srinagar. This was our one day bike tour, one of the most exciting and romantic bike trips we have ever had. We prefer bike trips because it makes the journey more thrilling, exciting and sometimes light on our wallet too 🙂

Gigantic and lush green valley, flowing streams along the road, colorful houses located at a small distance from the stream, beautiful flowers and plants, as we kept moving towards Pahalgam, bountiful nature made us more envious!!

Mysterious mountains just don’t let go of me @Pahalgam, Srinagar 🙂
