Overview
The old Silk Route is an ancient hilly-road that went through Lhasa in Tibet via the Jelep La Pass to India. A part of this territory is now in East Sikkim and West Bengal. The old Silk route is the rare confluence of natural beauty and history of human civilization.
This Old Route Sikkim trip starts from Sillery Gaon, which is a small village near Pedong in Kalimpong district of West Bengal. Located at an altitude of 6,000 fts, this place provides an immaculate view of the Khangchendzonga and its mountain ranges.
While here, you can go to Tinchuley view point which is a steep uphill hike and voila; you have a panoramic view of Mt. Khangchendzonga from this point. You can even see Nathula and Jelep La pass from up here. Damsang fort is an old ruined fort where you can hike to and it serves as a great place for bird watching during summer and spring months. From Ramitey view point, you can easily spot the 14 bends of the Teesta River and also see the confluence point of Reshi and Teesta river.
Located at the edge of the Himalayas, Aritar is a town which is located in the Eastern part of Sikkim. It's an offbeat destination in Sikkim, but it has some hidden gems such as Aritar Lake, Lampokhari lake and Aritar Gompa. The journey to the “old silk route” starts from Aritar.
Zuluk is a small village located at an altitude of 10,000 fts in the Eastern Sikkim district flanked by the Lesser Himalayas. It is one of the most offbeat and upcoming tourist destinations in the state of Sikkim. There are 32 hair pins, famously known as the zigzag road of Sikkim. There are several viewpoints from where you can see the entire Sikkim Silk Route.
On the way from Zuluk to Gangtok, visit Thambi View Point, Lungthong, Kalipokhri Lake, Old Baba Mandir, Nathang Valley, Menmecho Lake, Elephant Lake or Hati Lake, Kupup, Jelep-la.
Changu/Tsomgo Lake is a glacial lake in the East Sikkim district around 40kms from the capital Gangtok. It is one of the highest glacial lakes in the world with a height of almost 3,753 mts. This lake remains frozen for almost throughout the year. You can enjoy a Yak ride while here and there is also a Shiva Temple which is located here which is considered sacred by the locals. You can also try out a local cable car ride here which will offer you a panoramic view of the lake and surroundings from a vantage point.
“Baba Harbhajan Singh Mandir” is a temple made to honour Late Indian Soldier Harbhajan Singh. He was martyred in 1968 near Nathula, which is near Eastern Sikkim. There are many legends about him, some of which state that his soul protects the Indian army contingent near the place and warns them about impending danger. There is a holy shrine which draws many people and people get their wishes granted here.

What our Clients Say About Us
I recently went to Winter Spiti Valley trip with JustWravel which ended up being more as a trip with best friends. JustWravel had everything sorted for us be it transportation, safety, constant checkups, personalised care , accommodation, food and everything was super comfortable and amazing.
Then it comes to the best part of this trip our trip captains - Abhishek and Ramneek
He treated us like their own brother from day one and made sure all of us are having the time of our lives. They had constant checkups to ensure all of us are doing great physically. They had good knowledge about the place and shared the same with us as well.
I would surely plan my next trip with JustWravel.
I would like to mention an instance: I forgot my bag in the Volvo bus and there was nothing important in that bag but our captains still went out of their way to ensure that I got my bag safely.
Junaid Shaikh

The Kashmir Great Lake Trek with Just Wravel was an absolute dream come true. Words can't fully capture the emotions I felt while exploring the mesmerizing landscapes and immersing myself in the local culture. This journey touched my heart in ways I never expected, and I'm forever grateful to Just Wravel for creating such a profoundly moving experience. It's not just a trek; it's a piece of my soul forever embedded in those majestic mountains and serene lakes.

Amazing trekking company. Can trust them with their services. Very prompt and professional.

I recently did a trip to Leh Ladakh with JustWravel team, and boy, was it an experience for a lifetime! The trip leaders - Geetanjali, Ashish, Shashank - took such good care of the travellers. The team's thoughtfulness and local experience really shone through in the way the itinerary was planned. Plenty of photo opportunities, and daily briefings to prepare us for the unfamiliar climate and terrains of Ladakh. We had sufficient time for rest & recuperation and the accommodations provided were the best-possible, given the environmental conditions in that particular region. Really glad I did this trip solo and chose to go ahead with JustWravel's expertise. All we had to do was show up and the team ensured that we would have a great time - exploring the destinations and clicking away pictures of the beautiful mountains, valleys & lakes. Special shoutout to Geetanjali who really helped keep the spirits high and thanks to her, a group of strangers just felt like long-lost friends. Truly a memorable trip!
Shriti Chatterjee
Had visited Spiti valley in August with very experienced trip lead Namit.Though the weather conditions were tough Namit kept reassuring safety for us throughout the trip. Good arrangements for stay and food by Justwravel.The driver too was very experienced for the tough driving roads.Namit and the entire group were very friendly and cheerful-had wonderful time.Thanks JustWravel and Namit for the amazing memorable trip.Recommended.
Apeksha Godre
Went for 11D/10N Ladakh Trip with Just Wravel.
Had amazing time with a great bunch of people, who were complete strangers at the beginning of the trip. Just Wravel has a well curated itinerary that covers all important sights but also leaves enough time for personal relaxation/exploration. Our Trip leaders: sashang and abhishek ashish were helpful and available throughout the duration of trip. Safety of Bikers was ensured, through the entire duration of trip. Food and Accomodation were great as well. Would strongly recommend Just wravel for anyone planning a trip to Ladakh.
Hemang Pandya
It was by chance I came across JustWravel and there was something about it that made me go for it. So I took the chance and booked my first ever group trip to Leh Ladakh with them only to have an amazing experience that I am sure I wouldn�t have been able to managed on my own. The seamless organization and smooth execution of entire trip made it truly memorable. From start to finish, the they ensured that everything was well-planned and efficiently managed. Their attention to detail and commitment to providing a great travel experience is highly commendable. Special thanks to Manjunath for always looking out for everyone in the group!

Head Lamp:
You can’t rely on moonlight when you are in the mountains. A torch or even a headlamp with a fresh pair of batteries is always a good idea to bring along.

What our Clients Say About Us
I recently went to Winter Spiti Valley trip with JustWravel which ended up being more as a trip with best friends. JustWravel had everything sorted for us be it transportation, safety, constant checkups, personalised care , accommodation, food and everything was super comfortable and amazing.
Then it comes to the best part of this trip our trip captains - Abhishek and Ramneek
He treated us like their own brother from day one and made sure all of us are having the time of our lives. They had constant checkups to ensure all of us are doing great physically. They had good knowledge about the place and shared the same with us as well.
I would surely plan my next trip with JustWravel.
I would like to mention an instance: I forgot my bag in the Volvo bus and there was nothing important in that bag but our captains still went out of their way to ensure that I got my bag safely.

The Kashmir Great Lake Trek with Just Wravel was an absolute dream come true. Words can't fully capture the emotions I felt while exploring the mesmerizing landscapes and immersing myself in the local culture. This journey touched my heart in ways I never expected, and I'm forever grateful to Just Wravel for creating such a profoundly moving experience. It's not just a trek; it's a piece of my soul forever embedded in those majestic mountains and serene lakes.

I recently did a trip to Leh Ladakh with JustWravel team, and boy, was it an experience for a lifetime! The trip leaders - Geetanjali, Ashish, Shashank - took such good care of the travellers. The team's thoughtfulness and local experience really shone through in the way the itinerary was planned. Plenty of photo opportunities, and daily briefings to prepare us for the unfamiliar climate and terrains of Ladakh. We had sufficient time for rest & recuperation and the accommodations provided were the best-possible, given the environmental conditions in that particular region. Really glad I did this trip solo and chose to go ahead with JustWravel's expertise. All we had to do was show up and the team ensured that we would have a great time - exploring the destinations and clicking away pictures of the beautiful mountains, valleys & lakes. Special shoutout to Geetanjali who really helped keep the spirits high and thanks to her, a group of strangers just felt like long-lost friends. Truly a memorable trip!

Went for 11D/10N Ladakh Trip with Just Wravel.
Had amazing time with a great bunch of people, who were complete strangers at the beginning of the trip. Just Wravel has a well curated itinerary that covers all important sights but also leaves enough time for personal relaxation/exploration. Our Trip leaders: sashang and abhishek ashish were helpful and available throughout the duration of trip. Safety of Bikers was ensured, through the entire duration of trip. Food and Accomodation were great as well. Would strongly recommend Just wravel for anyone planning a trip to Ladakh.

It was by chance I came across JustWravel and there was something about it that made me go for it. So I took the chance and booked my first ever group trip to Leh Ladakh with them only to have an amazing experience that I am sure I wouldn�t have been able to managed on my own. The seamless organization and smooth execution of entire trip made it truly memorable. From start to finish, the they ensured that everything was well-planned and efficiently managed. Their attention to detail and commitment to providing a great travel experience is highly commendable. Special thanks to Manjunath for always looking out for everyone in the group!
