Samiti Lake

About Samiti Lake:

Samiti Lake is a alpine glacial lake located in the West Sikkim District of the Sikkim, India. The lake sits at the bottom of Onglakthang Valley, which is located in close proximity to the base of the mountain Pandim and Kangchenjunga and by extension is located in the Himalaya mountain range.

The water in the lake plays with ice before getting solidified in winter. The impression of the mountains on the lake triples the excellence. The lake is an ideal spot for camping due to the beautiful views of the surrounding snow-capped mountains it offers. From Thangsing, it is a two-hour climb up the valley to Samiti Lake.
