Picture this – lush green valleys, misty waterfalls, snow-clad mountain tops, and an inviting road that holds the promise of unexplored adventures waiting just for the biker in you. Sounds like a dream, right?

Ride through the picturesque, pristine state of Sikkim – the spectacular northeastern state that has a longstanding reputation of leaving its visitors spellbound, and wanting more!
Here’s something you’ll experience on this ride through sikkim:
- > Ride through the ancient, iconic Silk Route at Zuluk
