Kanchenjunga National Park

Yumthang Valley, Sikkim, India
While the core trekking routes of Kanchenjunga National Park (like Dzongri and Goechala) are primarily accessed from West Sikkim (near Yuksom and Pelling), parts of the park's buffer zones and entry points can be experienced during the North Sikkim tours towards Yumthang and Gurudongmar. The park i s a UNESCO World Heritage Site, renowned for its exceptional biodiversity and stunning landscapes, including glaciers, snow-capped peaks, forests, and alpine meadows. Even brief glimpses from the roadside offer a sense of the park's vastness and natural richness. Specific treks within the North Sikkim part of the park require special permits and are less commonly undertaken by regular tourists on the Yumthang-Gurudongmar circuit. However, the overall environment reflects the park's protected status.
