The road is part of the trip

Our drivers stop at the tea stall on the Rangpo climb. They know which bend above Zuluk has the view, and when the cloud lifts off Kanchenjunga. The drive is not the gap between places. It is most of the trip.

Some places need permits. Nathula and North Sikkim need protected area permits, and Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland, Mizoram and Manipur need an Inner Line Permit for visitors from outside the state.
