We start our day early, as we start with our journey to Spiti with the Chandigarh - Rampur leg.

Today, we’ll be leaving the city behind to move into the mountains, with great views of Churdhar peak, and Himalayas in the distance as we pass through Narkanda, and then move into the Satluj valley to reach Rampur. It is a town on the banks of Satluj river, 130 Kms from Shimla and also home to Padam Palace, standing in the capital of erstwhile Bushahr Kingdom.

Streets of Rampur still retain its old culture, while the palace is filled with history, and a glimpse into the past will be a great way to have a relaxing start to the trip.

This is going to be a long day, since we’ll be moving on towards Spiti, crossing Kinnaur on our way, and bidding goodbye to vegetation filled mountains, and saying hello to the barren landscapes of higher Himalayas.

We’ll be crossing Kinnaur region, Hangrang valley, bidding goodbye to Satluj river, and will eventually find ourselves journeying along the Spiti river.

Today is all about magnificent views on the way, and observing the changes in the landscape on the way as we move from lower ranges to the valleys along the highest of the Himachal Himalayas. We end the day in a homestay in Tabo, experiencing the comforts of a local life.

After the long drive yesterday, today we wake up in Tabo or Kaza, amidst the tall cliffs and Spiti Valley's surreal landscape. After a relaxed breakfast, we visit the biggest monastery of Kaza - Ki Monastery, heading further to the Kibber Wildlife Sanctuary & Chicham village

Today is an acclimatization day as we adjust to the high-altitude terrain of Spiti. Please drink plenty of water and be well rested.

By afternoon, we check into our Chicham homestay, relax, and meet the local guides for our snow leopard tracking ahead.

Mornings start early here, while the sky is still soft and grey, and the mountains haven't quite woken up yet.

After breakfast, we set off on a short drive and sometimes walk fro an hour walk through snow-clad terrain, following trails that lead us into territory where sightings are guided by experienced team of spotters

Don't worry, our experienced spotters are already on the field to make these spots available for you and also our porters are available to carry the heavy equipments for you on all days

Once we reach our spot, we settle in. We camp out for the day, cameras ready, eyes scanning ridgelines and rock faces, watching for the faintest shift in the landscape that might give the Snow Leopard away.

We also have ample of opportunities to find Himlayan Ibex, Blue Sheep, Red Fox, Himalayan Griffon.

Our porters will offer packed lunch, tea / coffee & snacks in between to keep this as comfortable as possible for you

By late afternoon, we make our way back to the warmth of our homestay in Chicham / Kibber, stories and sightings shared over a hot meal.

Our last night of stay here at the camps, but in terms of sightseeing - it's another day of sighting the elusive snow leopard.

We once again leave for sighting with our spotters, and spend our time in the snowclad wilderness of Spiti. At the end of the day, we return to Chicham village for one last night in Spiti Valley.

Today is our last day at the sighting grounds.

We once again leave for Snow Leopard sighting with slightly heavy hearts and bags all packed, spending our time in the snowclad wildwerness of Spiti.

After lunch, we head to our next destination either Kaza / Tabo, depending upon the weather conditions, hard-disk full of pictures & mind full of memories to end our 5-day intense wildlife expedition.
