Nako to Tabo: Maling Nala, Lepcha La Border & Gue Monastery!

Namaste and welcome to Episode 8 of my Spiti Valley Motorcycle Series! In this 10-minute vlog, we take you on an action-packed ride from Nako to Tabo, packed with high-mountain passes, ancient monasteries, and a rare visit towards the Indo-China border. Our day starts by conquering the tricky Maling Nala before making a peaceful stop at Chango Monastery, featuring stunning aerial drone views and personal reflections. After registering at the Sumdo Checkpost, we head towards Lepcha La—one of the closest accessible points to the Indo-China border. In this section, I break down all the crucial info on how to get permits to visit this restricted zone. Next, we take the detour to the famous Gue Monastery to witness the legendary 500-year-old self-mummified monk, captured in rich cinematic shots with dedicated voiceover details. Finally, we ride into the ancient town of Tabo as the sun sets over the valley.
