Booking tips

The best time to visit Yumthang Valley is during the spring (late March to June) for the rhododendron bloom. Hotel prices in Lachung are highest during this peak season, so book well in advance. October to December offers clear weather but can be very cold.

Food to try

Traditional Sikkimese cuisine is readily available in Lachung and Chungthang. Try momos, thukpa (noodle soup), and phagshapa (pork stew with radishes). Restaurants in these towns cater to tourists and offer Indian dishes as well.

Getting around

The only way to reach Yumthang Valley is by hiring a car or shared taxi from Gangtok or Lachung. Permits are required to visit Yumthang Valley, which your driver can help arrange. Be prepared for bumpy roads and high altitude conditions.
