Who all have been to Gurudongmar lake let me know in comments? 🙌 😎

[@RajanSekhri]

Yes I have been last year in June...it was an awesome experience 🤩🤟

[@AcousticTraveller1]

👋

[@bhaskardot]

I noticed you are trying to keep the colour grading as natural as possible in this series. But the gradient around this holy lake felt a bit off probably because we were seeing it through your sunglasses(kinda sepia) which you unconsciously replicated while editing. just a theory 😬. Anyways, lots of love and warm regards. 🍁

Is way to gurudongmar lake open in 1st week of march?

[@theraghavs]

I was there in 2013 Nov. The lake was almost frozen. We were breathless and few ITBP guys were running on the lake as if they dont breath oxygen.. This place is just mesmerizing, a different worldm the whole sikkim is so beautiful..

[@bajrangmma4929]

I was there last year. I have never seen anything more beautiful than this place. Thanks for uploading. Beautifully captured.

[@HoppingBug]

Thank you 😊

[@Rozergrg]

Finally justice delivered to our holy place. Thank you for the lovely video.

[@HoppingBug]

Glad you feel that way 🙂

[@kg22kg]

Going by tourist vehicle is one thing but riding to this lake on a bike is something else altogether. It snowed the night before which made the terrain look even more mesmerising. It was the best bike ride of my life.

[@HoppingBug]

I am sure it must be fun 🤩

[@wadewilson1913]

Is there any permits required for Bikes at checkposts? I was checking their website and it mentioned something about PAP.

[@milokasafar6]

@@wadewilson1913 yes it required permit due to border area . There is 2 checkpoint .

[@yeobofictions4185]

It was my dream to visit Sikkim and finally after 10 years i was able to go there in November 2022, and I've seen this lack and believe me i couldn't stand there more than 2 minutes because I was already out of energy because I puke at the last checkpost because of high altitude... seeing the lack infront of me from inside the car i was like this is the first time and could be last too so i gather myself and went out and the wind was so strong that i stepped three step back without my will.....the lack, indo china border, gangtok, zero point, yumthang valley and we visited many more places, and the lack was my favourite one ❤️

[@HoppingBug]

The lake is indeed beautiful 🤩

[@shashankfuser]

Was there in North Sikkim during November.. Beautiful.. We also had a chance to explore Gorala by sheer luck.. ❤❤

[@HoppingBug]

Wow. Must be fun.

[@HoppingBug]

I visited in December

[@Hiviyepthomi123]

Is it a good time to visit on may

[@HoppingBug]

I think so

[@tenzinglobsang8587]

You might face rainy conditions during May-September so I woulf advise to wait until Autumn. Maybe September end onwards. The weather should also be good by then. If you’re looking for snowfall or some snow then spring would be the best time to enjoy the snow while still avoiding extreme cold. Hope this helps 👍🏼

December

[@rajibhussain6175]

@@HoppingBug can we visit in February 1st

[@krishnakrishna-bk2lu]

I think the drone shots are not clear as they were previously, I think mini 3 pro is not as good as air 2s or Mavic 2 pro which u used before. The clarity is missing even when watched in 4k

[@HoppingBug]

Actually there are a few shot in the beginning which are shot at a very bad light. Its not specifically the drone camera but the light. Early morning in the mountains near lachen, casts very dark shadows while the sky is blasting light. So you have to use ND filter but because of ND, dark become extremely dark and hence the quality got spoiled
