The Sandakphu Trek is one of the few trails in India where you can witness four of the world’s five tallest peaks — Everest, Kanchenjunga, Lhotse, and Makalu — all in one panoramic view. Situated along the Singalila Ridge on the border of India and Nepal, this is truly one of the best winter treks in India, blending snow-covered trails with breathtaking sunrises over the Himalayan giants.
