Ashok’s Experience Will Tell You How You Can Nail A Short Budget Trip To Sikkim

India has many exotic hill destinations that turn into a winter wonderland every year. Witnessing snowfall and playing in the snow at least once in a lifetime is every traveler’s fantasy. None of us would be having a travel bucket list without having even a single location where it snows. But for some like Ashok, it is the sole idea of fun. Ashok has made it a ritual to see snow every year and experience sub zero temperatures. So here plan a trip every year during winters.

I love snow and I love the feeling when it surrounds me. This time, We wanted to head to the North East to explore the roads less traveled by. While looking for a reliable and sorted trip planner, We found TravelTriangle. They planned a perfect short budget trip to Sikkim for us and everything fitted nicely in the plan.

Visit Lachen

We were picked up from the hotel for our visit to Lachen. Located at an altitude of 9,800 feet above the sea level, Lachen is a stunning hill town in the Himalayas. On our way, we passed through Singhik Village, a rustic mountain village. We were totally spellbound to see the scenic views from the Singhik View Point. The Seven Sister Waterfall and Naga Waterfall were also relaxing places to visit. After an exhilarating day of exploring Lachen, we returned to our hotel at Lachen.

Gurudongmar Lake and Lachung

An early morning drive to the Gurudongmar Lake was a refreshing experience. Located at a height of 17,100 feet above the sea level, this lake is one of the most splendid sights of Sikkim. After an amazing lake excursio, we returned to the hotel for lunch. Post lunch, our journey to the Lachung Valley began. This journey had some of the most breathtaking scenic sites on the way.
