FAQs

1. Which is the best part of traveling in Sikkim?
The best part about traveling in Sikkim is the shared cabs, these cabs are super cheap and available between all major parts of Sikkim. One can get a shared sumo from NJP to Gangtok for just 250 rupees, this is another reason why Sikkim is a heaven for Solo Backpackers. Sikkim is divided into 4 districts- North, South, East and West.
2. Is it possible to visit Sikkim in December?
So if December is the only time you can manage to get those leaves, a visit to Sikkim is possible. At lower regions like Pelling and Gangtok, it was not really that cold in December. Pelling is at a height of 6,800 feet (2,085 m) and Gangtok has an altitude of 5,840 feet (1769 m).
3. Which is the largest district in Sikkim by area?
The district is the largest in four districts of Sikkim. The landscape is mountainous with dense vegetation to the alpine height before the southern tundra, before leaving the desert. Many waterfalls surrounded by the main road make visit to this district very beautiful. Area: 4226 square. Km
4. Is there any snow in Yumthang Valley of Sikkim?
In fact, there was no snow at the Yumthang valley itself. To see the snow, we had to go to what is called as ‘Zero Point’ (14,600 feet, 4450m). It is definitely much more colder at these heights. But Yumthang Valley and Zero Point do not offer accommodation. One has to visit the area and come back.
