📅 Day-by-Day Itinerary

Day 1: NJP/Bagdogra to Tabakoshi

Your journey starts from NJP Railway Station or Bagdogra Airport. Our driver will greet you and begin the scenic drive toward Tabakoshi – a peaceful village near the River Rammam, surrounded by tea gardens and forested hills.

Upon arrival, check into your cozy riverside homestay. Take a peaceful walk along the river, explore nearby tea gardens, and soak in the serenity. End your day with a local-style dinner.

Day 2: Explore Tabakoshi – Transfer to Lepchajagat

After breakfast, enjoy a nature walk to nearby waterfalls and birdwatching trails. You can also visit Gopaldhara Tea Estate and interact with locals.

Post-lunch, drive uphill to Lepchajagat, a quiet forest village just 19 km from Darjeeling. Famous for its stunning view of Kanchenjunga, it’s a haven for peace lovers. Check into a scenic homestay and spend the evening amidst pine forests and crisp mountain air.

Day 3: Lepchajagat to Rishihut – Forest Magic

Wake up early to catch a magical sunrise. After breakfast, begin your journey to Rishihut, an untouched forest village near Takdah. With limited network, no crowds, and birdsong in the air, it offers true digital detox.

After lunch, enjoy a short hike to Namthing Pokhri or simply relax at your homestay surrounded by ferns, orchids, and rhododendrons (seasonal). Bonfire in the evening adds charm to your stay.

Day 4: Rishihut to Dawaipani – Himalayan Panorama

Post breakfast, drive toward Dawaipani, a small and quiet village offering one of the best views of Kanchenjunga. Located near Darjeeling but far from the noise, it’s perfect for mountain gazing and photography.

Visit Yogighat, walk to the local monastery, and spend time relaxing with locals. Dawaipani is known for its herbal plants and forest healing vibes. End your day with a traditional dinner and sunset view.

Day 5: Dawaipani to NJP/Bagdogra Drop

After breakfast, say goodbye to the hills and begin your drive back to NJP or Bagdogra. You’ll carry back peace of mind, beautiful memories, and lots of photos.
