Programs General information Rates
From Darjeeling hills, where tea plantations stretch as far as the eye can reach, to Sikkim, an ancient Himalayan kingdom of Tibetan culture, this itinerary offers breath-taking sceneries of the Himalayan range, from Cho Oyo to Kanchenjunga. The trek leads us towards east Sikkim, through Singalila Range, along Nepali border, at first on easy narrow trails, then through luxuriant forests and, at higher altitudes, through green meadows and yak pastures. Along Onglakhing glacier moraines and Samity sacred lake, we climb up to Gocha La pass, highlight of this magnificent itinerary: we will savour the breath-taking scenery of Talung glacier and the impressive east face of the third highest summit in the world, Kanchenjunga (8586 m), surrounded by Rathong (6679 m), Kabru (7338 m), Talung (7349 m) in the south, and Kirat Chuli (7365 m) and  Pyramid Peak (7123 m) in the north. The way back via a recently opened path, goes through lush green jungles overgrown with lianas and orchids.
