From Yuksam, the trail follows the Rathong Valley to Bakhim and then brings a steep ascent to the village of Tsokha. Above Tshokha, the trail of Dzongri-Goechala takes you to Pethang and then with a further steps towards Dzongri (4020M). From this point, the trail drops steeply down the river to Thansing (3930M).
The final destination of the Dzongri- Goechala Trek is at Samiti Lake from which the way to Goecha La brings the best views of Kanchenjunga. Dzongri, which is located at an altitude of about 4020 m in west Sikkim; brings the trekker a most fascinating close-up view of Kanchenjunga and Mt. Pandim. The west of Dzongri brings the long outline of the Kyangla ridge to make the region a trekker's paradise. Goecha La, the region which is located at an elevation of around 4940 m, brings mind blowing sights of the mountains like Pandum, Kanchenjunga and more.
