The opening of route so early in season in 2018 was a positive sign for tourism, but it puts a grim reminder on the changing climate of the region. Due to lack of seasonal snowfall Spiti has experienced its driest winter in decades in 2018. So when you are here please make a vow to preserve this place as it is.

Few ways you can contribute and help Spiti

1. Take back all your trash and dispose where proper recycling facilities are available – plastic waste, dry cells, etc
2. Depend on reusable water bottles for drinking water. Use filtered water from hotels instead of plastic bottles.
3. Do not waste water in hotels – the most precious commodity this year. It takes lot of effort from us to get your running water in bathrooms. Use half flush, close taps while brushing.
4. Educate your friends, family, locals and everyone around you to do the same.

These small precautions will keep Spiti, this beautiful place on Earth, the way it should be for generations to come.

Dear Patron,

A lot of people when they visit little villages in Himalayas give money and chocolates to children. Money will be spent in no time and chocolates are consumed instantly. But any contribution in this beautiful land has to be of value and ever lasting. So we at Spiti Valley tours are introducing our gift a book program to our guests who are visiting Spiti Valley. As you know Spiti is located in such a remote region where we don’t get daily newspaper and magazines and the libraries are few and far between.

Back home we know a lot of you will be having old books be it comics, science, short stories or even novels that are useful for children. Instead of disposing them off, we request you to bring those books to Kaza and we will screen them and donate it to various libraries across Spiti.

We believe learning not only happens in school, not only through teachers, it also happens through everyone we meet and interact in our lives. It happens through television, comics, just by observing nature. There is no better contribution to the world than that of infinite knowledge.
