Sandakphu : My love for this trek and the whole region started in 2019, when first time I visited this region. It was end of September and I had to lead a group of trekkers, retreating monsoon was still there. My first experience on this trek was not good honestly, as throughout the trek it rained and we missed the views of sleeping Buddha majorly on each day . I headed to Sikkim for Goechala after this trek immediately.

And in November I was back in Jaubari- a small settlement of 10-12 houses. It was the base camp of this trek. And my home for next 2 months.

The weather these days was clear and I headed for the trek again with my group . Luckily this time I got to see sleeping Buddha properly and every day of the trek. And it was not just the sleeping Buddha range , I was amazed to see the dense bamboo forest, the landscape which I had never seen in other parts of country where I had trekked .
