February will be very cold. You need to be fully equipped. There are possibilities of a landslide(Not to worry, it happens often at the hill areas just Plan a flexible itinerary) Btw. April will be a very good option. Because on some days the roads to Tsongmo lake and Nathula Pass can be blocked due to heavy snowfall in February and you will need flexibility. Good Luck!! Happy Travelling!!

Even though Gangtok is spectacular throughout the year, winter casts a whole new spell altogether. The real charm of this place is best experienced from October to February. The local markets teem with a platter of different trinkets, the chilly weather demands the adrenaline rush, and colorful flowers carpet the green background. Offering a panoramic view of the surrounding peaks crowned by shimmering white snow, a smorgasbord of adventure activities which start from river rafting and ends with paragliding, with an exciting ride in cable cars in between, this place takes on the role of that one family member who lets us enjoy ourselves till we have a permanent grin pasted on our faces. Add to it a pleasant climate with temperatures ranging from subzero to 7 degree Celsius, and voila! The Gangtok of your dreams is ready! The enrapturing sight of the frozen lakes of Gurudongmar and Tsomgo, the snow-covered Nathula Pass, and the picturesque natural beauty of the hill station combine for the ideal vacation that you were craving for. Besides, Gangtok celebrates Christmas and welcomes the New Year in a way that is a notch above the rest. With psychedelic lights which adorn the whole place and the festive aura that envelopes the entire area, you cannot help but have a joyous trip with some beautiful memories. To experience the best of Gangtok, you are advised to book your tickets sometime between the last week of November to the end of January.
