The Gangtok City Walk
Overview
Gangtok – The Capital of Sikkim, Irreverent, cheerful and pleasantly boisterous, Sikkim’s modern capital is layered along a precipitous mountain ridge, descending the hillside in steep tiers. Viewpoints survey plunging green valleys that remain beautiful even when partly shrouded in mist. If the weather plays ball, look for glimpses of snow-topped Khangchendzonga on the distant skyline.
This downhill walk is designed to explore the city and bring out the rich cultural heritage and show how Gangtok has been able to modernize yet hold its charm.
