Located at an altitude of 12,500 feet and 20kms ahead of the Tsonmgo lake, lies another lake, not so famous - not so popular, hidden from the mainstream tourists - Lake Menmecho or Memencho lake. It is the source of the river Rangpo chu, a tributary of the Teesta River. The waters of the lake are sourced by melting snow in summer, and the monsoon in the wet season. Surrounded by untouched Pine Forests and deep slopes, It is said to change colors every minute. The lake is fed by the waters of the surrounding mountains of Jelep La Pass and stays frozen from January to August. A narrow 4 kilometers winding road beside Baba Mandir would take you to Menmecho Lake.
The lake is one of the best trout cultivation centres of Sikkim and is maintained by the Fisheries Department (you have to contact them for booking purpose).
It is a place of great diversity when it comes to the varied range and species of Flora and fauna.
