Paragliding at Sadam
Tandem flights above the green Himalayan landscapes of Sadam Hills.
Book ParaglidingThe Silk Route in East Sikkim is a scenic Himalayan circuit known for historic mountain villages, winding roads, high-altitude viewpoints and changing views of the Eastern Himalaya. Usually planned from Gangtok through places such as Rongli, Zuluk, Nathang Valley and Kupup, it suits travellers looking for a quieter road journey beyond Sikkim’s better-known town centres.
Travel through settlements shaped by the old trade corridor and experience a slower side of East Sikkim.
The route climbs through changing landscapes, hairpin bends, ridgelines and broad Himalayan views.
Choose a focused Silk Route circuit or combine it with Gangtok, North Sikkim and other regional highlights.
A typical Old Silk Route itinerary may include Rongli, Zuluk, Thambi View Point, Lungthung, Nathang Valley and Kupup, depending on current permits, weather and road access. The exact route and overnight stops should remain flexible because high-altitude conditions can change quickly.
Spring and autumn are generally preferred for clearer mountain views and comfortable sightseeing. Summer brings greener scenery but can also bring cloud and rain. Winter can offer a striking landscape, although cold, snow and temporary road restrictions may affect the route. SikkimYatra confirms the practical itinerary closer to travel rather than promising access that depends on conditions.
Protected-area travel requires valid identification and permits arranged according to the rules applicable at the time of travel. Carry original documents, keep buffer time and disclose any health concerns before confirming a high-altitude itinerary. Visitors should travel with warm layers, stay hydrated, avoid rushing at altitude and follow local instructions.
All itineraries use Price on Request so the quotation can reflect group size, travel dates, vehicle type, room preference and the route currently available.
Read our North Sikkim & Silk Route travel guide for permits, seasonal planning and packing advice. If you are deciding between the two circuits, compare scenery, pace and suitability in North Sikkim vs Silk Route.
