 PASSES

• The mountain ranges are interspersed with

the passes which can be used to cross from
one side to another. On the Eastern Chola
range the most important passes are
the Nathu La and Jelep La both at an altitude
of about 15,0000 ft. and Bhutah La at an
altitude of about 13,000 ft. The first two lead
to Tibet and the third to Bhutan.
 GLACIERS

• Glaciers are moving mountains of ice. There

are many of these in Sikkim, but the most
important ones are: Zemu Glacier, Rathong
Glacier, Lonak Glacier in North Sikkim.
• On the face of it, on would not expect to find
lakes on such a rugged terrain. But
surprisingly, Sikkim does have lakes though
not very large in size. These lakes are both
spring fed as well as river fed. On the highway
between Gangtok and Nathu La, 34 kms. from
Gangtok lies the serene Tsomgo Lake at an
altitude of about 11,000 ft. .
• Khecheopalri lake is another well known lake
that lies on a bifurcation of the route between
Gyalshing and Yuksum . Menmecho lake, Green
lake and Samiti lake are some other beautiful
lakes.
