If you ask any trekker about the best trek in the Eastern Himalaya, which is a complete package of everything good and beautiful, then their obvious answer will be the Singalila Sandakphu trek. With the mountains decorated with green alpine trees, magnificent monasteries soaked up in rich cultural history, hues of flowers, a verdant paddy valley, and emerald forest, the Singalila Sandakphu trek is ideal for nature lovers and wildlife enthusiasts. The trek provides breathtaking views of the Himalayan range, from the Cho Yo to Kanchenjunga.

Trekking to the Sandakphu peak is something like experiencing a sweet tooth, as the journey is going to be difficult, but the views will be fantastic. The trekking expedition will start from Tonglu. After covering the forest in search of the Red Panda and the Tragoapn, trekkers will reach Garibas. In addition, the trekkers will continue to Sandakphu, from where they can feast their eyes on the peaks of Everest, Lhotse, Kanchenjunga, Baruntse, Chamling, Chomolonzo, Machapucchare, and different peaks of the Annapurna range. After spending some time in Sandakphu, trekkers will pass through the mountain pass to attain Phalut.

The beautiful view of the Himalayas never goes out of sight throughout the journey. The next destination on the trekking trail is Rammam, probably one of the best places in the Himalayas to behold sunset.After descending through the srikhola villages, trekkers will visit Rimbik, the very last vacation spot of the trek. Embark on an adventure to the Singhalila Sandakphu trek, and witness a wonderland where the splendour of nature is at its finest.

After breakfast, get ready for a drive to the starting point of the trek, Tonglu. Your journey till Tonglu will be picturesque as you will come across the tiny settlements located on the edges of the Indo-Nepal border, chattering waterfall, rhododendron, giant magnolias, spruce and other forests of Maneybhanjang.
