Day 1

Spiti needs good 10 - 12 days if you want to explore it and don't want to rush though places.

1. Delhi to Narkanda ( first day of journey makes it long )

I skipped Shimla considering you have upgraded from shimla tourist to Spiti Adventure traveler.

Day 2

2. then Narkanda to Sangla , explore Sangla and chitkul ( in hurry then leave next day , however I would suggest two days )
