Suvayu Chatterje Visited on January - 2020 Mind blowing arrangements

View and roads are mind blowing. Seems like you are close to God. I got tremendous Snow through out the road and had to come down and stay in Zuluk . Its is advisable to Stay in Zuluk and on your way to Old baba mandir get down and spent some time here. Home stays are available but advisable to stay after April as health Issue might creep any time because of the Altitude. But if you are fit enough and dont need that much of or an expediter like me then Nathang is a Must stay to feel and enjoy its beauty.

Abhijit Chakraborty Visited on October - 2019 wonderful trip of Silk Route

Deepaundeb Roy Visited on October - 2019 homely feeing

Situated at an altitude of more than 10200 ft. , this resort gives a homely feeing to the visitors. Water supply from tap is unavailable due to the sub zero temperature. The custodians supply hot water on demand. Washrooms can give a not so happy feeling to some who are not accustomed to compromising with water supply and space crunch. Food is standard. The staff are nice. We booked rooms at Nathang. You may face severe high altitude sickness like breathing trouble for which you must take precautions. They provide blowers to tolerate the sub zero temperature but you can feel unease of not having proper supply of oxygen. One night stay is fine here. More than that is not advised. You can find Himalayan Monal here. This is your prize of stay at Zuluk other than the mesmerizing view of Kanchenjunga and an enigmatic sunrise which you can see from a vantage point which is 4km away.

Debajyoti Roy Visited on September - 2019 Tour was excellent

Our Silk Route tour was excellent, thanx a ton to Rucksack. Specially home stay at Aritar & home stay at Padamchen were very pleasant property to enjoy those place. Also 'Hilltop' home stay at Zuluk was very nice. Carry on Rucksack

Jayanta Poddar Visited on May - 2019 A must stay place

Highest night stay point in Silk Route. A must stay point.Calm and quite valley. Surrounded by army set up. Quite cold (We stayed in 4 to 5 degree centigrade in mid May). There are numbers of home stays. But better to have a prior booking. Points of tourist attractions are - Srikrishna Mandir, War memmorial and a Monestry. All are within walk-able distance except Thambi View Point. You need to book a vehicle for going to Thambi View Point to see sunrise. This trip is not included in the silk route package. Eagle's nest bunker - another point of tourist attraction near Nathang.

Jitender Chattopadhyay Visited on March - 2018 Really offbeat package

Since the very first day of the tour was Aritar the old silk route, I knew it is not a regular one. We reached the village early. The route to Zuluk is quite offbeat and I must say that the Eastern Sikkim is the greenest of all. We stayed in a hotel in Zuluk on Day three which overlooked the Kanchenjunga range and out of all the places I have been to, this was the best views of the entire range. The drive to Nathang was not at all smooth but as we were ascending to an elevation, the view was just getting better. Our permits and entry were looked after by the driver, visited valleys like Gnathang Valley, and Tukla Valley.
