Treks you must explore in Spiti Valley
Here I have collaborated a list of all Lahaul – Spiti Treks that includes the level of the trek, number of days needed to complete each trek, height, distance covered, and source and destination of these treks.
Parang La Trek
The most sought after trail in Spiti Valley is Parang La Trek. It is the most ancient trek developed to create a way from Spiti Valley to Leh. It starts with one of the coldest places in the country, Kaza. It is definitely not a trek for weak hearted. Start hitting the gym before you go for this trek.
