Green Lake Trek

The Sikkim Green Lake Trek is considered one of the most complex and unexplored treks in the Sikkim Himalayan belt. It traverses through secluded tribal villages perched at a lofty peak of the mountains and offers breathtaking views of the expansive green landscape and the serene lake. The trek also allows trekkers to witness the diverse flora and fauna, including alpine trees, rhododendrons, and numerous flowering plants.

Moreover, the trek provides an opportunity to explore the lifestyle and culture of the local inhabitants, which reverberates in the minds of numerous explorers who come in contact with this alpine trek. The trek commences from Lachen, which is at an altitude of 2,730 meters and ends at the same place after a downhill journey to Gangtok.

The Green Lake Trek is expansive and unique as it takes trekkers to the bottom of Kanchenjunga, the third highest mountain in the world, and provides a close-up view of the peaks such as Kanchenjunga West, Kanchenjunga Primary, Kanchenjunga South, and Kangbachen. The trek spans over the limits of Nepal, Tibet, and the Indian state of Sikkim, forming a silver line parallel to the spotless blue sky.
