By Road – Delhi to Spiti via Shimla
Another popular route is via Shimla, which covers roughly 1,200 kilometers. This route passes through Bilaspur, Reckong Peo, and Kaza, offering views of lush valleys and rugged mountains. Although longer than the Manali route, it is considered safer during early summer and late autumn when Rohtang Pass remains closed. Overnight stops are recommended in Shimla, Reckong Peo, or Kalpa.
