Sikkim in June 2027: Weather, Places to Visit & Travel Tips

Possible with flexibility: the monsoon arrives in mid-June and North Sikkim roads can close.

June starts like May and turns into the monsoon around the middle of the month. Early June is a reasonable time for Gangtok and Pelling; later in the month, landslides can close the roads to Lachung and Lachen for a day or more. Hotels get cheaper and the valleys turn very green.

Questions about Sikkim in June

Is June a good time to visit Sikkim?

Early June is fine for Gangtok and Pelling. From mid-June the monsoon makes North Sikkim unreliable, so plan a route that works without it.

Is North Sikkim open in June?

Often, but closures after landslides are common in the second half of the month. We check road status daily and switch to Pelling or South Sikkim if needed.
