About Goechala Pass:
Goecha La at an altitude of 4960 mtr is a high mountain pass in Sikkim, in the Indian Himalaya range. The southeast face of Mt. Kanchenjunga, the world's 3rd highest mountain, can be viewed from the pass. Trekking through the Kanchenjunga National Park, one of the greenest regions in the world, remains one of the top things to do for any holiday maker in the Himalayas. Untouched by any effluence, these forests support a fine ecosystem, with numerous species of unusual flora and fauna.
The trek itself can be challenging in terms of distances to be covered in a day. One needs to get properly acclimatized due to the huge changes in altitude over a small time during this trek, which is also another reason for its popularity. However, once you get walking it becomes easy to tackle the challenging distances. Goechala trek is the sight of fascinating and mesmerizing snow-covered peaks of Kanchenjunga with amazing green landscapes and lush meadows at the foothills.
