North Sikkim sharing tour package to Yumgthang valley Zero point Lachen Gurudongmar Lachung Yumesamdong
The shared trip cost
for two nights three days to North Sikkim can vary depending upon your tour operator
and the services they can offer including that of their assistance before your
arrival to Sikkim.
The room heaters are not included, however warm blankets are adequately provided with simple both veg and on veg meals. Visit to Zero point- Yumesamdong does not come as a part of the package.

Brahminy ducks. It's cool, placid water harmonizes with the scenic beauty around.
A small temple of lord Siva is constructed on the lakeside . This placid lake
remains frozen during the winter months up to mid-May. Between May and August
it is possible to see a variety of flowers in blooms, including various species
of Rhododendrons and Primulas, Blue and Yellow Poppies, Irises etc. It is also
an ideal habitat for the Red panda- The State Animal of Sikkim along with

Nathu La Pass
Nathula Pass was one of the most important routes of trade between the silk traders from Tibet and Sikkim before it was closed in 1962. Located around 56 kms from Gangtok at an altitude of 14450 ft, the road to Nathula passes through the Tsomgo lake. It is one of the highest motorable roads in the world and is richly surrounded by alpine flora. On a clear day you can even see the road winding down the Chumbi valley.
