Day Trip from Gangtok:
Tsomgo Lake – a beautiful high-altitude lake.
Baba Mandir – a sacred and scenic stop nearby.
Nathula Pass – Indo-China border (note: closed on Mondays only, and permits required).
North Sikkim (2N/3D ideal):
Gurudongmar Lake – one of the highest lakes in the world, truly breathtaking.
Lachen & Lachung – charming villages and great overnight bases.
Yumthang Valley – “Valley of Flowers,” very picturesque in April.
