The reasons to choose Goechala Trek
- Rhododendron forest: The rhododendron trees also abound on the path to Goechala. They bloom with red and pink blossoms in April and May. It is an outstanding experience to travel through these forests' wooden-log trails.

- Three ancient bridges: Before reaching Sachen, you will experience the old bridges of Pha Khola, Tshushay Khola, and the Mentogang Khola over the Prek Chu river as they journey through dense forests and lush surroundings.
- Experience different cultures: Most people of Sikkim practices Buddhism and Hinduism. Tibetan culture has also had an impact on it.
- Sunrise views of Mt. Kanchenjunga: The spectacular sunrise view from the Goecha La pass is the main attraction of the Goechala trek. Seeing the first rays of sunlight reach the snow-capped summits is a magical experience that every trekker hopes for.
- Flora and fauna: There are extremely few high-altitude treks with treelines. The Goechala trek is located within the Kanchenjunga National Park, which is also on the Unesco World Heritage Sites list.
