Disclaimer

In plain English

We work hard to keep the information on this site accurate, but permits, park seasons, road and pass openings, festival dates, timings and prices change, sometimes at short notice. Check current status before you travel; your written quote is what counts.

Information on this site

Our guides, journeys and place pages describe conditions as we understand them when written. They are for planning, not a guarantee. Distances and drive times are typical, not exact. Prices are indicative.

Health and altitude

Our notes on altitude, heat and health are general advice, not medical advice. Please see a doctor before travelling, especially for North Sikkim, Nathu La, the Silk Route and treks such as Goecha La, which go above 3,500 m.

Photographs

Photographs come from Wikimedia Commons under free licences and are credited to their authors. They show places as they were when photographed. See our photo credits page.

Maps

Our maps are drawn from Natural Earth outlines (public domain), with international borders as depicted by India. They show where places are, and are not for navigation.

Links

Links to hotels and other sites are for convenience. We are not responsible for their content.
