Sikkim Himalaya
Sandakphu & the Singalila trail – (SKTRK- 147)

12 days exploration of Darjeeling, Queen of hill stations (famous for its tea), and the low lands of Sikkim to the heights of Mt. Kanchenjunga

This recently opened route encompasses the area southwest of Dzongri and as defined by its name, includes several days of hike traversing the Singalila Range, the lesser mountain chain that rises from the northern hills of Darjeeling District and extends to converge with the Khangchendzonga (or Kanchenjunga) massif.

The Singalila range is also the divide that demarcates the western borders of Sikkim and Darjeeling with Nepal. Traversing this razor-edged borderline, spectacular views abound on both sides with rare species of rhododendron in bloom (at the right season), and an occasional herd of yaks with its herder will be your only source of contact with civilization for quite a number of days.
