It is a popular destination among both travel enthusiasts and locals. On its banks, there is a three-story pagoda-like temple dedicated to sage Prashar. The lake is considered a holy place, and locals from nearby areas continue to visit it all year long. It is located at a height of 2,730 meters, and as per the legend, the true depth of the lake is still unknown.\n\nThis place is open to visitors throughout the year, including the winter months. While the majority of tourism occurs in summer, many people also visit the lake when it is completely covered in a thick sheet of snow.\n\nI was recently on a road trip to Parvati Valley and on the last day of the trip, we went to Prashar Lake and camped there for the night.

I hope you like it.\n\nFollow me on Instagram\n\nhttps:\/\/www.instagram.com\/vargiskhan\/\">\n\n                <div class=\"sby_thumbnail_hover sby_item_video_thumbnail_hover\">\n                    <div class=\"sby_thumbnail_hover_inner\">\n                                            <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n\n                                    <div class=\"sby_play_btn\" >\n                        <span class=\"sby_play_btn_bg\"><\/span>\n                        <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"fab\" data-icon=\"youtube\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 576 512\" class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-youtube fa-w-18\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M549.655 124.083c-6.281-23.65-24.787-42.276-48.284-48.597C458.781 64 288 64 288 64S117.22 64 74.629 75.486c-23.497 6.322-42.003 24.947-48.284 48.597-11.412 42.867-11.412 132.305-11.412 132.305s0 89.438 11.412 132.305c6.281 23.65 24.787 41.5 48.284 47.821C117.22 448 288 448 288 448s170.78 0 213.371-11.486c23.497-6.321 42.003-24.171 48.284-47.821 11.412-42.867 11.412-132.305 11.412-132.305s0-89.438-11.412-132.305zm-317.51 213.508V175.185l142.739 81.205-142.739 81.201z\" class=\"\"><\/path><\/svg>                    <\/div>\n                                <span class=\"sby_loader sby_hidden\" style=\"background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\"><\/span>\n            <\/a>\n\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div><div class=\"sby_item  sby_new sby_transition\" id=\"sby_UCOb6HiRnF68b_eQSYQRQqKg_v_akDnXlaQw\" data-date=\"1732475198\" data-video-id=\"v_akDnXlaQw\">\n    <div class=\"sby_inner_item\">\n        <div class=\"sby_video_thumbnail_wrap sby_item_video_thumbnail_wrap\">\n            <a class=\"sby_video_thumbnail sby_item_video_thumbnail\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=v_akDnXlaQw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-full-res=\"https:\/\/i3.ytimg.com\/vi\/v_akDnXlaQw\/maxresdefault.jpg\" data-img-src-set=\"{&quot;120&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/i3.ytimg.com\\\/vi\\\/v_akDnXlaQw\\\/default.jpg&quot;,&quot;320&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/i3.ytimg.com\\\/vi\\\/v_akDnXlaQw\\\/mqdefault.jpg&quot;,&quot;480&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/i3.ytimg.com\\\/vi\\\/v_akDnXlaQw\\\/hqdefault.jpg&quot;,&quot;640&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/i3.ytimg.com\\\/vi\\\/v_akDnXlaQw\\\/sddefault.jpg&quot;}\" data-video-id=\"v_akDnXlaQw\" data-video-title=\"Barshangarh Waterfall | Exploring Sainj Valley - Episode 2\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/plugins\/feeds-for-youtube\/img\/placeholder.png\" alt=\"Barshangarh Waterfall is one of the most scenic locations in Shangarh.

Sainj is also the name of its largest village, home to a bank, offices, and a long line of shops selling almost everything.\n\nShangarh is a part of Sainj Valley, a small village located deep within its forests.

justify;\" align=\"justify\">Spiti Valley is a name that creates many pictures in the minds of those who haven&#8217;t been there. While some picture lush green hills, mountain rivers, and waterfalls, others think of it as a barren wasteland, a cold desert very similar to Ladakh.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"justify\">Whatever the picture is, it attracts thousands of tourists every year. A journey to Spiti is an experience that you will cherish for a long time, probably all of your life.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"justify\">The name &#8220;Spiti&#8221; means &#8220;The Middle Land,&#8221; which it actually is, because it is in fact the land between Tibet and India. And because of this very reason, it possesses a unique combination of both Indian and Tibetan cultures. A distinct lifestyle derived primarily from Hindu and Buddhist beliefs, gelled so well that it&#8217;s hard to tell them apart.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"justify\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Best_Time_to_Visit_Spiti_Valley\"><\/span><strong>Best Time to Visit Spiti Valley<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This definitely is the first question that comes to mind when you think of planning a trip. Choosing the right time to go, in my opinion, is of utmost importance, both in terms of convenience and sightseeing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Spiti Valley is open by road for all 12 months. When to go to Spiti will really depend on what your preference is, but the majority of the tourism happens in the months from June to September.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This is the time when both the routes from Shimla and Manali remain open. Take a look at the article below for more details on what you can expect in which month, and which would suit you the most.<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/best-time-to-visit-spiti-valley\/\">When is the Best Time to Visit Spiti?<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/spiti-valley-roads-opening-closing-times\/\">Spiti Roads: Opening and Closing Times<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\t\t<div id=\"sbi_mod_error\" >\n\t\t\t<span>This error message is only visible to WordPress admins<\/span><br\/>\n\t\t\t<p><strong>Error: No feed found.<\/strong>\n\t\t\t<p>Please go to the Instagram Feed settings page to create a feed.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Is Spiti Safe?<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This is a question that must be addressed and answered before you go visit a new place. In my opinion, a person&#8217;s safety is entirely in their own hands and is driven by the choices they make.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">What you should know about Spiti Valley is that the roads here can be really bad, narrow, and sometimes even dangerous to drive on. So a certain amount of driving experience would be required (especially on hills) before you bring your vehicle here.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You definitely do not want this to be your first time when you are behind the wheel in the hills. If it were, then I would recommend that you make a short trip to some other hill station and then drive to Spiti. The local people here are very humble and gentle. The majority of the valley is simple villagers, and the crime rate here is next to none.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So as long as you drive sensibly, do not take any unnecessary risks, do not wander alone into the wild on your own, and do not get into arguments with anyone, Spiti Valley is a very safe place to visit.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I would recommend reading through <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/is-spiti-valley-safe-for-tourists\/\">Is Spiti Safe for Tourists<\/a> <\/strong>for more information and details on this topic.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Spiti_Valley_Permits_Seasonal_Access\"><\/span>Spiti Valley Permits &amp; Seasonal Access<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Contrary to common belief, Spiti Valley actually remains open for all 12 months of the year. People tend to think that it gets shut down in the winter months, but that is not true.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Of the two roads connecting Spiti with the rest of the country, it is only the Manali Kaza highway that gets blocked in winter. The reason behind this is that there are two high-altitude passes on this route, and both of them are notorious for receiving high amounts of snow each year. Yes, I am referring to Rohtang La and Kunzum La.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">On the other hand, there is not even a single high-altitude pass on the route from Shimla to Kaza. Due to this, it remains open throughout the year.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There could be a temporary block if the weather turned extreme and it snowed too much, but even if that happens, authorities clear the road just as soon as they are able to and restore connectivity.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">With that being said, the tourist season in Spiti really starts in the month of May. People visit here in other months as well, but the majority of the tourism happens only between May and September. This is the time when all tourist areas are open, and all hotels and guest houses are operational.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Is a Permit Required for Spiti Valley<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Permits for Spiti Valley remain a topic of confusion, really. Take a look at the articles below, and these should help clarify any doubts. In a nutshell, as an Indian citizen, you do not need a permit for Spiti Valley. You are free to travel on the circuit at any time of the year.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As a foreign national, you will need a permit to travel, but it is only for traveling in the area near the Shipki La Pass (between Pooh and Nako). If a foreigner were coming from Manali to Kaza only, they do not need a permit. From the Shimla side, no permit is required for traveling till Reckong Peo, but one is needed for going beyond Peo.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Irrespective of whether you are an Indian or a foreigner, you will definitely have to obtain a permit for Rohtang Pass if you intend to enter the valley from Manali&#8217;s side. Go through the posts below, please, and these should clarify the matter further.<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/get-inner-line-permit-for-spiti-valley\/\">How to Get Permits for the Spiti Trip<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/rohtang-pass-permits-details-charges-apply\/\">Rohtang Pass Permits: Details, Charges &amp; How to Apply<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/spiti-valley-5.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-37859 size-full\" title=\"how to plan a trip to spiti valley\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/spiti-valley-5.jpg\" alt=\"how to plan a trip to spiti valley\" width=\"1000\" height=\"662\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/spiti-valley-5.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/spiti-valley-5-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/spiti-valley-5-768x508.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/spiti-valley-5-780x516.jpg 780w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/spiti-valley-5-585x387.jpg 585w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/spiti-valley-5-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Preparing_for_a_Spiti_Valley_Trip_Vehicle_Gear_Essentials\"><\/span><strong>Preparing for a Spiti Valley Trip (Vehicle, Gear &amp; Essentials)<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Once you have decided when to go, next in line comes the question of how to prepare.

The number of people visiting Spiti now increases with each passing year, and the place is slowly getting transformed into a tourist hotspot. With that being said, the fact cannot be denied that it is still a high altitude desert where the terrain is not only challenging but also dangerous.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you are thinking of a Spiti family trip, then you would have to seriously prepare for the journey ahead, especially if you were traveling with a child, or elders of your family.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Please take a look at the following post.

People here are very humble and simple. But if you are asking in terms of terrain, then it will depend on how sensibly you travel.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Roads are bad and narrow in some places, but as long as you drive sensibly and slowly, there is absolutely nothing to worry about.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But if you take unnecessary risks, drive insensibly, try to be at places where you should not be, or get into altercations with people, then you are just making things difficult for yourself.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Spiti Valley is a very safe place to visit, but the end result will entirely be in your own hands.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Is Spiti Valley safe for a woman to travel alone?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">All that I explained above in this article about safety in the Spiti Valley applies to a solo woman traveler as well. Plan your itinerary well, choose your hotels wisely, keep your folks informed about your whereabouts, do not get over-friendly with everyone you meet, maintain your distance, do not venture out in remote areas all by yourself, and you will be fine.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Do not also tell people that you are all alone. If asked, just tell them that you are with a group but alone just for that very moment. I know girls who have been on the Spiti Circuit alone, both by public transport and motorcycle, and they were able to travel without any problem at all.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Safety Weather &amp; Mobile Connectivity<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Spiti Valley\u2019s high altitude and remote location require travellers to take basic safety precautions, including proper acclimatization and flexible travel plans. Weather conditions can change quickly, especially near high passes like Kunzum, which may lead to temporary road closures.<\/p>\n<p>Mobile network coverage is available, with strong connectivity available in Kaza and some nearby areas, while remote villages have little to no signal. Informing accommodation hosts about travel plans is advisable. It will be better to carry Airtel and Jio phones, and BSNL if you can.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Food_Water_Basic_Facilities_in_Spiti_Valley\"><\/span><strong>Food, Water &amp; Basic Facilities in Spiti Valley<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In the end, let us also talk about the food choices, options, and availability of basic facilities in the valley.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">What to eat in Spiti Valley<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">One of the must-do things when you visit a new place is to try the local food there. You may or may not like it, and it may or may not agree with your stomach, but you must do it nonetheless. After all, traveling is in the end all about being in new places and trying new things.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A mix of Indian and Tibetan Cultures, the local food in the Spiti Valley looks exotic, smells mouth-watering, and tastes delicious. Please take a look at <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/local-food-of-spiti-valley-what-to-eat-in-spiti\/\">Local food in Spiti \u2013 What to Eat in Spiti<\/a><\/strong> for a list of some local dishes that you must try.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Food, Water &amp; Basic Facilities<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Food options in Spiti Valley are limited and mostly available at local eateries and homestays, especially in Kaza and larger villages. Basic Indian meals are commonly served, while choices become very limited outside peak travel months.<\/p>\n<p>Drinking water is generally sourced locally, but carrying reusable water bottles and purification tablets is recommended. ATMs are available mainly in Kaza, and travellers should carry sufficient cash as digital payments may not work reliably.<\/p>\n<p>With that being said, it is not like you are going to run out of food and will starve. You will still come across small dhabas, eateries where basic Daal Roti Chawal Maggie will still be available. Snacks can be bought as well, almost everywhere. Just do not expect anything fancy, is what I meant.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Travel_Tips_for_Spiti_Valley\"><\/span><strong>Travel Tips for Spiti Valley<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Last but not least, below are some articles where I have shared some quick tips to ensure a safe and enjoyable journey.

If I am to answer this in a single sentence, yes, Spiti Valley is definitely worth every minute or penny that you spend here.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is going to be a journey that you will remember for the rest of your life. This trip will give you a taste of many things in terms of vistas and culture. The slow transformation from lush green hills of Kinnaur to barren brown of Spiti and then again the green of Manali will leave you mesmerized.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The white of snow-covered mountains and the blue of the lakes here are like nowhere else. You will get to see an entirely different part of our country and meet people following a very different culture from yours.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Yes, Spiti Valley is very well worth it, and you must visit here. In many ways, it will actually be even better than visiting Ladakh.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I hope the information above on how to plan a trip to Spiti Valley was of help.
