Best
time of the year for trekking in Sikkim is from March to May and
September to November. Sikkim is the best kept secret in our
Himalayas and trekking in Sikkim can be a wonderful experience and
antidote of city stress of daily life and who long for Shangrila.
Sikkim trekking experience can be memorable and cherished for a
lifelong. While trekking one can relish the pure air and silence of
wilderness and feel the awakening of senses burdened by urban
living. As one walks through the vales and dales and quaint
villages. Mountains take up strange and wonderful shapes and the
beauty of Sikkim Himalayas unfolds itself before you. All through
each and every nook and corner of Sikkim - from the sultry tropical
forests in the south to howling wilderness in the north is a
trekkers paradise. Treks to Kanchendzonga is the most fascinating
and challenging.
