You think of Spiti, and you think of large mountains sprawling far into the eternity, and the villages perched on the top of those slopes, like oasis in the middle of a vegetation less region.

Few houses, fewer people, going about their life in these treacherous parts of earth with a smile on their lips, and the stories filled with mysticism in their hearts. Ready to be revealed, ready to be concealed within your souls, diaries and cameras.

And that’s what the Homestay trek does to you, as it begins and takes you through some of the highest villages in the world, through winding trails on these meadows with sparse vegetation, and snow-capped peaks in distance, close enough to make your feel that you could just extend your arm and pick a little snow off those slopes.

During this trek you’ll be walking through picturesque trails, and rolling meadows, taking you to the postcard-perfect villages, thus fitting in an experience of life and culture in Spiti valley over a duration of five days.
