Help me yaar.....

No you can not. You need to book your north Sikkim travel with an operator. Lachung is a tiny hamlet, so don't expect a taxi stand or some thing like it.

To visit North Sikkim you need permits as its very close to the border & permits are issued only to Travel agents/tour operators & not individuals... This is wat they told me when i was there
