Gangtok, Yumthang and Lachung Tour Itinerary
Day 1
Day 2
TSOMGO LAKE:
Head to the Tsomgo Lake or what is also known as the Changu Lake. A 3 hour drive is what it will take to reach at the height of 12,400 feet. It is a glacial lake that is considered to be sacred by locals and the reflection of the neighbouring hills on the water is sure to leave you enthralled. There is a small temple built alongside the shore as well.
BABA HARBHAJAN MANDIR:
Next, visit the Baba Harbhajan Mandir. The view from 13,200 feet above where this temple is situated is a sight for sore eyes. It is a shrine that is dedicated to an Indian soldier who passed away by drowning in a nearby stream. His clothes, shoes and badges are preserved here along with his photographs. It is mandatory for army officials to pay their respects here for it is believed that his soul still protects the fellow military mates. Many people also bottle the water in the name of the ailing people and the water seems to heal them.
NATHULA PASS: (Own Cost)
Visit Nathula Pass [14,140 ft] A historic Indo-China border post [subject to permit and weather]. A proud, patriotic moment for many travellers! Return back to the hotel in Gangtok for a comfortable overnight stay.
Day 3
Day 4
Yumthang
Valley is a beautiful valley situated in north Sikkim. It sits at an elevation of 3,500 metres above sea-level, so naturally home to many beautiful Himalayan flowers. It is rightfully called a valley of flowers. Yumthang Valley is extremely picturesque, with green slopes covered with trees, yaks grazing in the flower-spangled grassy plains below, and a river flowing right through the valley. The serene and tranquil air of the Valley cannot be described in words. A single visit there can leave the visitor in an enchanted state for weeks.
Yumthang Hot Springs:
On the return stop at the natural hot springs believed to have healing properties. Nestled beside the river, these warm sulfur-rich waters feel like a cozy hug in the middle of the cold .
Zero Point: [EXTRA COST]

Zero Point Hot Spring: [EXTRA COST]
Small but a soothing natural hot spring, channeled into a modest indoor bath area by locals. It’s a peaceful spot beside the icy Lachung river, surrounded by pine trees and prayer flags.
MtKatao: [EXTRA COST]
Next, take a detour to the majestic slopes of Mount Katao, one of North Sikkim’s best– kept secrets . With it’s alpine trees, deep snow and panoramic views, it’s no wonder this place is called the Switzerland of India.

- In the area almost all the hotels do not have a lift facility and in all the hotels the guest will have to climb stairs. In case if any guest is having problem of blood pressure, knee or other ailment for which they cannot climb the higher floors they will have to intimate us during the time of booking so that we can try to arrange rooms at the lowest possible floor of the hotel enabling the guest to climb the minimum number of stairs.
- In Lachen and Lachung most of the hotels are offering Vegetarian food.

Important Note about NathulaPass: (We will not give you any guarantee for Nathula pass but we will try)
- The permit for Nathula Pass is issued by the Sikkim Tourism Department is completely subject to availability and Road Condition.
- Nathula Pass will be on a sharing basis if the booking is confirmed with Wagon R / Sedan / any other similar small vehicle.
- Only limited permits are issued by the Sikkim Tourism Department before 24 hrs. of the tour (OR on the day of tour depending on road condition) to those travel agencies registered with Sikkim Tourism Department on Rotation basis. Nathula is closed on every Monday. Normally organizing a permit at the eleventh hour is not possible, the minimum time required is 48 hours before the arrival to apply the permit with all documents. We will try our best, but in case of non-availability of permit, the tour will only be till Baba Mandir. In case the permit is available one can opt for the trip with the supplement cost.
- It is mandatory that guests should carry photo proof identity cards such as Voter Id / Passport/ Driving License and passport size photograph. (Aadhaar Card / PAN Card are not considered as a valid ID proof). A Birth Certificate is required for the Children below 18 years.
- As permit is mandatory and a very limited number of permits are issued per day for visiting Nathula, guests have to travel by any car whichever is available (like Xylo/Scorpio/Maxx/Bolero/Sumo) as per permit issued. We cannot give any choice on Vehicle type. This is to inform you that in order to control and send more tourists to Nathula pass, the department of tourism after consulting with travel agents laid down the following rules:-
- The Indian Army allows visiting Nathula from 11:00AM to 12:30PM only. Guests have to start early from Gangtok. If the guest makes a delay in starting from Gangtok we cannot guarantee the visit in spite of having confirmed permit.
- In high season a limited permit will be issued by authorities. We will try to get the permit but if we do not get the permit then we will refund the supplement amount after the end of the tour.
- Please note if the Nathula pass permit is not done due to weather conditions / Landslide / any other reason than we will refund the supplement amount after the end of the tour.
- Also note that if the Nathula Pass permit is issued and due to any other reason they can’t visit NathulaPass then we are unable to refund anything.
- We will try to get premium permit (which is not clubbed) of NathulaPass for Luxury vehicles.
- In case of less than 6 people from one travel agent the Department generally clubs small numbers with another travel agent’s small number of tourists just for 4 km up and down before Nathula Pass. Now in this case it might so happen that the guests might have to leave their vehicle and board some other vehicle with other guests or other guests may join them in their vehicle or for groups and multiple cars it might so happen that the guests who has paid for certain number of vehicles might have to accommodate in lesser number of vehicles as per the instruction of the Permit Office at Sarathang (04 kms before Nathula Pass). In that case no refund would be applicable.
