The morning after breakfast we will go for a full-day excursion to -
Tsongo Lake: At an altitude of 12,400 ft, the ethereally beautiful Tsomgo Lake is a must on every visitor's itinerary. A winding road through rugged mountain terrain and sharp cliffs takes you to Tsomgo. The lake derives its water from the melting snows of the mountains surrounding the lake.
New Baba Mandir: This “mandir” or shrine is dedicated to “Baba” Harbhajan Singh, who was a soldier of the Indian Army. However, for the tourists’ convenience, the samadhi of Baba Harbhajan Singh has been reconstructed and this shrine is popularly recognized by tourists as New Baba Mandir.
An optional tour to Nathula pass can also be arranged ( Mon, Tues closed) with 30days advance request at an additional cost-
Nathula Pass: At an altitude of 14450 ft, the road to Nathula passes through the Tsomgo lake and it is 17 km from the lake. Tourists are allowed to go close to the international border from where you can see Chinese soldiers on the other side of the barbed wire.
