This trek takes you close to the two faces of Kangchenjunga in Sikkim. We begin the first trek with a journey to Darjeeling, a town - which is famous for being the base for many exploratory trips into the Himalaya.
From here we travel valleys in Sikkim to Yoksum, from where we begin our trek through forests to the alpine region of Dzongri and on the view point above Lamini, from where we have a superb view of Goeche-la pass and Kangchenjunga. After this first trek, we head towards the capital of Sikkim - Gangtok and then begin a trek on a route that only mountaineers have used in the past to get to the East Face of Kangchenjunga. To do this trek, we have to start processing permits, atleast 3 months in Advance.
The trek is less challenging than the Guiche-la trek, as the gradient for most parts is gentler.
The walk is also through forests and morraine, along the Zemu Glacier, with stunning views of many snow capped mountains including Kangchenjunga. We return home by way of Gangtok.
