The Grand Singalila Goechala Circuit: The Ultimate 17-Day Himalayan Odyssey
Experience the most comprehensive high-altitude traverse in the Eastern Himalayas.
The Singalila Goechala Circuit Trek is not merely a trail; it is a 167-kilometer masterpiece of mountain exploration. Designed exclusively for the discerning adventurer, this 17-day premium private expedition bridges the rugged, nomadic ridges of the Indo-Nepal border with the sacred glacial amphitheater of the Kanchenjunga Massif. While standard treks rush to a single viewpoint, our handcrafted 2026 itinerary begins in the remote gateway of Uttarey, tracing the high-altitude frontier of the Singalila ridge before descending into the heart of the Kanchenjunga National Park to join the iconic Goecha La trail.
Why choose the 17-Day Circuit with Himalayan High?
In the world of high-altitude trekking, time is the ultimate luxury. Our extended 17D/16N timeline is strategically engineered for elite-level acclimatization. By the time you reach the Goecha La viewpoints, your body has already spent over ten days trekking above 3,500m along the Singalila ridge, ensuring a safer, more energetic, and profoundly more rewarding experience than any standard 8-day itinerary can offer.
From the "Sleeping Buddha" panoramas at Phoktey Dara and the spiritual stillness of the sacred Lam Pokhari lakes to the golden sunrise over the 8,586m summit of Kanchenjunga, this trek offers unparalleled geographic diversity. You will navigate high-alpine passes like Danphe Bir La (4,515m), wander through ancient rhododendron sanctuaries, and camp in total solitude in the most remote corners of the Sikkim Himalayas.
At Himalayan High, we specialize in Private Customized Treks. This means no fixed departures, no crowded groups, and a 1:1 service ratio tailored to your pace and preferences. In 2026, redefine your limits and witness the Himalayas as they were meant to be seen—undisturbed, majestic, and entirely yours.
