About four hours drive from Gangtok is Aritar. The Aritar Lake (Ghati-Tso) is worth visiting.

For those interested in spending a night or two in the peaceful environment, a way of living of the villages and also visit to monasteries like Lingsay Monastery etc. A short trek in and around Aritar is also possible.

A night spend in an old British-built bungalow of 1895 located half km below the lake could be an enthralling experience. You may contact a registered travel agency.
