Sikkim or Arunachal Pradesh during the last week of December

Part-time Gypsy · Nov 12th, 2007, 02:35

Hello Everyone!

I've to plan a family trip during the last week of December. Please suggest if it would be a good idea to travel to Sikkim or Arunachal Pradesh during that time.
Will it get too adventurous for parents?
Will places like Nathula, Yumthung, Gurudongamr, Tawang, and Namdapha be accessible?
Is it a good time to visit and will I be able to make the most of the trip ... for e.g. if I go to Pelling or Pemyangtse will I get good view of Kanchenjunga?

Looking forward to the responses...

Thanks & regards

Hi!
Sikkim will be a better option than Arunachal Pradesh, if you wish to visit Tawang, then.

During December it snows heavily and most time the roads are blocked near Sela Pass,so my personal advice enjoy Sikkim at that period of time.

hi dear,

Go ahead, no prob at all with parents, but u should be careful abt your parent breathing system as some of that places is high altitude.
