Suggestions and tips

No, Nathula Pass is not open every day. It is usually open to Indian tourists from Tuesday to Sunday (closed on Mondays). However, access is subject to weather conditions, security restrictions, and permits issued by the authorities.

Since Nathula Pass is a high-altitude border area, it can be closed due to heavy snowfall, landslides, or security reasons. It is always advisable to check with local authorities or your travel agent before planning a visit.
