Tips from drivers who run this route every week

Best time to travel

May to October. Kaza is reachable year-round in principle via Kinnaur, but heavy winter snow regularly cuts access.

Local insider tip

Kaza is the administrative town of Spiti at about 3,800 m. Plan an overnight at Kalpa or Nako so you gain altitude gradually — going straight through in one day is the main cause of altitude sickness on this route.
