Kala Patthar, 15500 ft, North Sikkim, Tourism Sikkim

Kala pathar means “black rock” in nepali, hindi and urdu language. The place is always fully covered with snow with freezing cold temperature. It is situated above thangu valley and chopta valley. The only colours you will see are black and white. The whole area is covered with white snow and some black rocks. This place is under restricted by indian army and people are allowed to go until a certain place but they need permit to visit this place. The road service to this area is quite bad but the place is eye catching and memorable and its worths visiting. Mostly the tourist visiting gurudongmar lake will visit kalapthar to view the snow. The place is less in altitude as compare to gurudongmar lake so there is no problem for children to visit this place.

“Kala patthar is also called as mini switzerland of sikkim”

Kala Patthar

The place is fully covered with snow and the drive to this place is awesome. The roads are bad but it’s worth going. Mainly located in Nepal, a part of it is in Sikkim, and this place is considered to be “no man’s land”. This area is covered with snow all through the year and it is more peaceful and less crowded than zero point.

Kala Patthar, North Sikkim
 
 

The best time to visit Kala Patthar is from March to June. However, in order to enjoy skiing and snowboarding, winter months of December to February are ideal to visit.

Although there are many places to visit and explore in Sikkim, each and every location is different from each other, i personally recommend Kala Patthar, its worth visit place.
