Tips

If you have extra time, consider extending the trip by a day to trek to Gurudongmar Lake or explore the less‑visited Namchi region for cultural immersion. For a shorter stay, you can skip the Ravangla leg and spend the entire second day around Tsomgo Lake and Namnasa Snow Point, reducing the itinerary to two full days while still enjoying the main highlights.
