Wake up to the view of the snow-capped mountains and have a full breakfast (while staying there or while travelling there, depending on when you depart).
Visit the glistening Gurudongmar Lake first thing in the morning; it is the Highest Altitude Accessible Lake and was named for Guru Padmasambhava, who is thought to have been through this area when visiting Tibet.
The lake is a significant source of the Teesta River and is surrounded by snow-covered mountains.
Take some time to take in the lake’s hues before setting out on your return trip to Lachen, where lunch will be served.
Next, take to the roads as you begin your trek to Lachung, one of Sikkim’s most picturesque towns.
You’ll cross the Bhim Nala waterfalls, one of Sikkim’s tallest waterfalls, on the way.
If you have the time, visit the sacred rock in Chungthang that features Guru Padmasambhava’s footprint.
Arrive at Lachung, then have dinner.
Stay the night in Lachung.
