About the tour

Tourists use Lachung as the base to travel to Yumthang valley and its surrounding area such as Katao and Yumasamdong. The small town in itself is also an interesting stay. You can spend some leisure hours sitting beside the Lachung-chu river, mesmerised by the beauty of the place. The local monastery is also a nice place to spend an evening and learn about the local Buddhist culture.
