Exclusive tips for the seekers of Spiti Valley motorcycle tour 2019

We have already talked about 20 essentials tip for travel in India in our previous blogs. Moreover, Spiti, in general, has a different set of do’s and don’ts. Some of which are essential to follow on a bike trip to Spiti. So, here you go!

  1. Getting to Spiti is always a task. Why? Well, that’s because there are two major routes, one passing through Manali and another through Shimla. Furthermore, the Manali trail is shorter than the Shimla route, it is more dangerous and steep. So, ideally traveling from Shimla is the safest option.
  2. Your body will take time to assimilate with the temperature. So, do not travel to high altitude destinations right away because doing so can cause serious mountain sickness.
  3. Expect bad road conditions and go easy on your journey. But don’t rush just enjoy whatever comes your way.
  4. Stay in the monasteries for one of a kind experience. Furthermore, fooding and lodging will be on them at dirt cheap prices. So, it’s worth the shot you all!
  5. Drink garlic water or garlic soup whenever possible. Why? That’s because garlic makes the blood thinner. Furthermore, it regulates the oxygen intake of the body and decreases the chances of mountain sickness.

Don’t exert your body, please! Driving in plains or even in mild hilly terrains is very different from driving on the rugged routes of Spiti. So, just acknowledge this fact and move at a pace you can handle.
