Zuluk is a relatively new tourist destination in East Sikkim. It is a small village with a large military settlement, given that the Indo-Tibet border is nearby. The village itself is an attractive tourist destination for visitors looking for a quiet sojourn. For most tourists, however, it is the base from which they explore the higher-altitude tourist destinations of Nathang Valley, Kupup and Tsongmo lake. Here, one can experience the high-altitude mountains of Sikkim without travelling to North Sikkim, which requires significantly more time to travel. The famous silk route that connected Lhasa (Tibet) to Kalimpong was in use even a few decades ago until the Chinese invasion of Tibet. Zuluk / Dzuluk used to be a small village on this route. It was commonly used by traders travelling to Tibet through Jelep-la ("La" stands for mountain pass) as an overnight base. Today it is fast emerging as a new tourist destination. Zuluk derives its tourism importance due to the excellent view of the eastern Himalayan mountain range including the Kanchenjunga from here. A trip to the area requires special permits. The permits though would be arranged by us, and as a guest, you would only need to provide your id proof and photograph. During the summer months, the area and its surrounding hills are covered with thousands of blooming rhododendron. Zuluk during these months is a riot of colours due to the variety of rhododendron that can be seen here.
