Pelling Tourism

The second most popular tourist destination in Sikkim, after Gangtok, is the lovely town of

Pelling in the West district. The stunning view of the Khangchendzonga and nearby peaks is the main draw of the location, which is 10 km from Geyzing and 130 miles from Gangtok. Within less than a kilometre of here is the well-known Pemayangste monastery, a popular destination for tourists. Along with acting as a starting point for a number of treks in the area, Pelling also has places for mountain biking, rock climbing, village tours, and meditation. All nature lovers and adventure seekers should spend their vacations in the picturesque village of Pelling.

Pelling, a charming, small town located at a height of 6800 feet, was once covered in a thick, wild forest that was a haven for many native wild animals of the time, including the Wildman ( may not be yeti though). Due to its location between Pemayangtse and Sangacholing, two ancient Buddhist monasteries, this ridge eventually grew into the village of Pelling. Pelling is currently one of Sikkim’s most popular tourist destinations. Pelling serves as the hub for access to all of West Sikkim’s spectacular tourism attractions.
