From Darjeeling hills where tea plantations stretch as far as the eye can reach, to Sikkim, an ancient Himalayan kingdom of Tibetan culture, this trek offers breath-taking sceneries of the Himalayan range from Cho Oyo to Kanchenjunga. Singalila range is one of the rare spots on earth where you can at once look at 5 peaks higher than 8000 m, among which Everest, Makalu and Lhotse. On those 19th century English Lords trails, you will trek on easy narrow paths along Indo-Nepali border; sometimes at the edge of the jungle, sometimes trough rhododendrons forests. The visit of main Sikkim monasteries (Pemayangtse, Tashiding, Rumtek) will add a cultural interest to this trekking program. |
