Overview

The southeast face of Mt. Kanchenjunga, the world’s third-highest mountain, can be viewed from the pass, which is also a base camp for those aspiring to scale the mountain. They say that when the government authorities first saw the view from Goecha La, they were so moved by the view that they decided to feature it on the Rs.100 note.

Trekking through the Kanchenjunga National Park, in one of the greenest regions in the world, remains one of the top things to do for any holidaymaker in the Himalayas. Untouched by any affluence, these forests support a fine ecosystem, with numerous species of unusual flora and fauna. The weather remains clear during the winters and dramatic during the pre-monsoon season, with misty clouds that play around with your imagination. The whole eco-system is maintained in harmony and no single tree stands unaccompanied!

The trek itself can be challenging in terms of distances to be covered in a day. One needs to get properly acclimatized due to the huge changes in altitude over a small-time during this trek, which is also another reason for its popularity. However, once you get walking it becomes easy to tackle the challenging distances.

Highlights

  • Start Gochala trek, trek to Sachin, Rathong and Mentogang river, trek.
