Green ridges and base-camp trails skirting Kangchenjunga (8,586 m), the world’s third-highest peak and the guardian deity of this tiny state.
Sikkim’s treks mostly trace the Kangchenjunga massif or climb toward its base camps, through some of the greenest, most biodiverse country in the Himalaya. Permits are required for most high-altitude routes — and the region is easily reached from Kolkata and the eastern plains.
Almost every Sikkim trek starts from the historic first capital of Yuksom and needs an Inner Line or trekking permit arranged through a registered operator. Spring brings rhododendron; autumn brings the clearest walls of Kangchenjunga.

The short route from Yuksom to Dzongri Top — superb dawn views of Kangchenjunga and Mount Pandim when time is tight.
Perhaps the most beautiful trek in Sikkim — following the Zemu River to the very base of Khangchendzonga. Pristine and uncrowded.
The Singalila Ridge, where four of the five highest peaks — Everest, Kangchenjunga, Lhotse and Makalu — line up at once. The most accessible big-view trek from Bengal.
A gentle, family-friendly trail famous for hillsides of rhododendron in bloom across the Barsey sanctuary.
Breathtaking scenery of snow peaks and dense forest along the lesser-walked Singalila Ridge on the Sikkim side.
High-altitude lakes such as Kechopari, with orchid and bird sanctuaries threaded along the way.
A newly opened ridge trek in west Sikkim with sweeping, uncrowded views of the Kangchenjunga range.
