Mairung Gaon

Mairung Gaon – The Untouched Gem of Eastern Himalayas

Mairung Gaon is a pristine, lesser-known mountain village tucked away in the Kalimpong district of West Bengal. Surrounded by thick forests, cascading waterfalls, and distant views of snow-capped peaks, this peaceful hamlet offers the perfect escape for those craving simplicity, silence, and soul-nourishing nature. A part of the Baramangwa–Tinchuley–Takdah circuit, Mairung Gaon is one of the most promising offbeat eco-tourism destinations in North Bengal.

With minimal infrastructure, no urban clutter, and only a handful of eco-conscious homestays, the charm of Mairung Gaon lies in its untouched beauty and sustainable tourism practices. Ideal for writers, photographers, birdwatchers, and wellness seekers, this is a village where the day begins with sunrise over the mountains and ends with starry skies and fireflies.
