The protected valleys north of Gangtok, reached by permit. Built around your dates, because the passes and the permits both depend on them.

Highlights

  • Lachung and the Yumthang valley
  • Lachen, and the high road beyond it when it is open
  • Permits arranged in advance — none of this is walk-up
  • Weather closes these roads without notice; the plan is written to allow for it

Day by Day

Silk Route Tours does not publish a fixed day-by-day plan for this one. It is put together for your dates and confirmed with you before anything is booked — which is why there is no schedule invented here. Send an enquiry and you will get the actual plan for your trip.
