Because of its remote location i n Nepal, the Kangchenjunga region is not much explored by the trekkers. It has, therefore, retained much of its pristine beauty. In Sikkim too, trekking into the Kangchenjunga region has just been permitted. The Goecha La trek is gaining popularity amongst tourists. It goes to the Goecha La Pass which is located right in front of the huge southeast face of Kangchenjunga. Another trek to Green Lake Basin has recently been opened for trekking. This goes to the Northeast side of Kangchenjunga along the famous Zemu glacier.
The other name of Kangchenjunga is Kangche Dzo-nga, Kachengdzonga,and Kangchanfanga. The best seasons for climbing is in April, May (pre-monsoon) and September, October (post monsoon).
