Travel beyond the ordinary...
the pure delights of Sikkim

In Mount Everest: The Reconnaissance, 1921, Lt. Col. C. K. Howard-Bury wrote of “magnificent forests of evergreen oaks . . . covered with ferns and orchids and long trailing mosses. . . . It was impossible to imagine anything more beautiful, and every yard of the path was a pure delight.”

Not many Westerners have walked these forested paths since then, and on this extraordinary trek you’ll spend ten days trekking to bracingly remote villages, monasteries, and temples, lavished all the while by wonderful views of the Himalaya (most spectacularly: Kangchenjunga and 22,563-foot Siniolchu, a peacockish peak the great mountain lover Douglas Freshfield considered the world’s most beautiful).

2008 departures : 27 April, 15 May, 3 October, 21 October
priced from $5295.00
