TREK OVERVIEW
You might be wondering, what is the Lost Valley? Long ago, when the British explored Singalila National Park via Sandakphu and Phalut, they discovered two enchanting villages—Gorkhey and Samanden—also known as the Lost Valley or Silent Valley. Nestled in the dense forests of towering pines and diverse flora, these villages offer a serene escape, where you can truly lose yourself in nature and rediscover your soul.
With the warm hospitality of the locals, delicious local cuisine, and cozy evenings by the bonfire, your stay in these hidden gems will feel just like home.
It’s time to step out of your comfort zone, connect with nature, and explore the less-traveled Lost Valley. Embrace the adventure, and be a #Banzara.
