​

Day 2: Full-Day Pelling Sightseeing

​

Wake up to the sound of chirping birds and the sight of Himalayan peaks glowing with the morning sun. After breakfast, begin a full day dedicated to discovering the treasures of Pelling. Start with a walk across the Pelling Skywalk, India’s first glass-bottomed bridge, offering a thrilling perspective of the valleys below and the towering Chenrezig Statue above. From here, proceed to the Sangachoeling Monastery, one of the oldest monasteries in Sikkim, reached by a scenic uphill trail. The peaceful chanting of monks here feels timeless.

Later, nature takes center stage with a visit to Rimbi Waterfalls and the thunderous Kanchenjunga Waterfalls, both cascading down in full force amidst lush forests. Afterward, continue towards the mystical Khecheopalri Lake, a sacred site believed to fulfill wishes, where prayer flags flutter in the breeze. Close by lies the Pemayangtse Monastery, famed for its 3D wooden masterpiece "Zangdok Palri Phodrang." Finally, step into history at the Rabdentse Ruins, once the royal capital of Sikkim, now silent stone walls echoing stories of kings and wars with sweeping views of the Himalayas. Return to your hotel in the evening with memories of a day well-spent. Overnight stay at Pelling.

​

Day 3: Pelling → Kaluk / Rinchenpong / Hee Patal 

​

After a hearty breakfast, bid farewell to Pelling and drive towards the peaceful villages of Kaluk, Rinchenpong, or Hee Patal. The journey itself is an adventure. Your first stop is at Singshore Bridge, the highest suspension bridge in Sikkim, where the sheer drop below will leave you in awe. Continue onwards to the still waters of Chayatal Lake, surrounded by pine forests and often reflecting the clouds above like a mirror.

​

As you approach Kaluk Viewpoint and Rinchenpong Monastery, the mighty Kanchenjunga comes into view once more, this time from a quieter, offbeat perspective. The air here feels different—cleaner, calmer, untouched by heavy crowds. By evening, you reach your hotel or homestay in one of these villages. Spend the night enjoying the tranquility, perhaps by the warmth of a local bonfire, as village life unfolds around you. Overnight stay at Kaluk/Rinchenpong/Hee Patal.

​​​

Day 4: Kaluk / Rinchenpong / Hee Patal Excursion

​

This morning, step into the slow-paced rhythm of West Sikkim village life. A guided walk through Hee Patal reveals terraced fields, cardamom plantations, and traditional homes where locals greet you with a smile. Visit the peaceful Bermiok Monastery, where prayer wheels spin endlessly, carrying centuries-old chants across the mountains.

If you’re traveling between March and May, embark on an optional trek to the Varsey Rhododendron Sanctuary, where slopes burst into carpets of pink, red, and white blossoms—a photographer’s paradise. In the evening, make your way to the Rinchenpong Cliff Viewpoint, a hidden gem that offers one of the best sunset views in Sikkim. Watch as the sky turns crimson and the snow peaks glow like fire before night sets in. Overnight stay at Kaluk/Rinchenpong/Hee Patal.

​

Day 5: Kaluk → Ravangla Stay 

​

After breakfast, drive towards Ravangla, a quiet town known for its serenity and spiritual charm. Begin with the iconic Buddha Park (Tathagata Tsal), where a 130-ft golden Buddha statue sits majestically with the Kanchenjunga range in the background. The landscaped gardens here are perfect for an afternoon stroll, and the aura of peace is unmatched.

​

Continue your journey to Namchi Chardham, a unique pilgrimage site with replicas of India’s four holy Dhams and a massive Shiva statue overlooking the town. Later, visit the Temi Tea Garden, Sikkim’s only tea estate, producing world-famous organic tea. The endless slopes of emerald green tea bushes against the mountains make for picture-perfect moments. Arrive at your hotel in Ravangla and spend a relaxed evening, perhaps sipping a cup of Temi tea while admiring the views. Overnight stay at Ravangla.

​​​

Day 6: Ravangla → NJP / Bagdogra Drop

​

After breakfast, it’s time to say goodbye to the mountains. Drive back through scenic mountain roads towards NJP Railway Station or Bagdogra Airport, carrying home not just souvenirs but a heart full of memories. From the monasteries of Pelling to the quiet villages of Rinchenpong and the spiritual charm of Ravangla, this West Sikkim tour from Kolkata promises experiences that linger long after the trip ends.
