On His Own Trip

Sikkim

8 Days

Overview

Sikkim is one of my favourite places in India. Our quest is to begin in Gangtok and go to the very north of Sikkim!

I love North Sikkim – it’s stunningly beautiful – snowy mountains, rivers bustling everywhere, little streams flowing under bridges, waterfalls popping out of everywhere, yaks grazing in the meadows, horses running wild and more.

And what do you say about the nights? There are thousands and thousands of stars, and you might see a dozen shooting stars too!

The route is stunningly beautiful, with waterfalls, icy streams, rhododendrons, poppies, tiny villages and hairy hilly dogs standing all along the way. We shall also spend two days each in the villages of Lachung and Pelling, which have stunning views of the snow capped mountains, icy streams, wild flowers and more.
