Trekking in North-East India, particularly Sikkim is an unbelievably unique experience. Goecha La Trek at an altitude of 4600 metres is surreal. South-east face of grand Mt. Kanchenjunga (world’s 3rd highest mountain), is visible from Goecha La Pass (base camp to scale the gigantic mountain).
Not just Kanchenjunga but 14 major summits grace Goecha La’s 90 km trek. Ethereal Samiti Lake with still waters, reflections of Mt. Pandim is a major attraction. Nestled in vibrant Kanchenjunga National Park is rich flora, fauna. Unmatched beauty. Dramatic changes in weather combined with quick altitude gain makes Goecha La a challenging trek.
Best time for Goecha La awesome adventure is March-April or September-December. Adorned with charming flowers, white-washed with pristine snow. Trail to Goecha La is blessed with rhododendron forests, bursting to life with beautiful pink, red flowers!
Mysterious spirit of Sikkim with spectacular Goecha La Trek (15,000 feet), massive Kanchenjunga, Goecha Lake in the back-drop, sensational sunrises, stunning sunsets, snow-clad Himalayan peaks, fantastic forests, raging rivers, marvellous meadows is enough to simply fall in love with nature.
