Sikkim, Dzongu

...

Sikkim is a beautiful destination in India and shares a sensitive international border with three countries - Bhutan, China, and Nepal. The Northern part of Sikkim requires special permission 
from the government to visit. In this post, you'll find all the details and information you need to know about travelling to Dzongu, including information on permits, homestays, and itineraries.

When most people think of North Sikkim, they tend to focus on the more popular and touristy areas like Lachen and Lachung. However, there are plenty of other beautiful and relatively untouched 
places to explore in this region. Dzongu is one such place that is definitely worth a visit. This remote and relatively unexploited area is full of natural beauty and is perfect for those who want 
to get away from the hustle and bustle of more crowded places.

Dzongu offers a serene and breathtaking view of the Kanchenjunga mountain range - one of the tallest in the world. Getting to Dzongu is half the fun as the roads are an adventure in themselves. 
There are sporadic villages in both Lower and Upper Dzongu, providing everything you might need to rejuvenate yourself. Monasteries, beautiful hikes & trails, dense enchanting rainforests, 
snow-covered peaks, mountain rivers, waterfalls, hot-spring, rice terraces, riverside camping, fishing, suspension bridges, wildflowers, fluttering Tibetan prayer flags, floating butterflies and 
beautiful Himalayan birds singing their melody make Dzongu a place you won't want to leave.
