While the Manali-Kaza route via Kunzum Pass remains closed, with an expected opening between late May and the first week of June 2026, recent updates indicate that routes from Kaza to Pin Valley (including Mud Village) and Kaza to Losar (towards Dhankar) are now open. Dhankar Monastery is also reported to be accessible on most days. However, road conditions in Spiti Valley can still be challenging with rough patches, loose gravel, ice, and slush. Travelers should be aware that heavy snowfall alerts and temporary closures can occur, especially in higher altitude areas. This motorbike loop from Kaza is now partially feasible, but it is advisable to check local road status updates before and during travel, and carry extra supplies. The Dhankar Cliff Fort and Dhankar Lake Trek might still have limited accessibility due to prevailing conditions.
