Rampuria, Darjeeling – A Hidden Himalayan Forest Hamlet

Rampuria, nestled on the quiet edge of Darjeeling’s forested belt, is one of the most untouched and soul-soothing offbeat destinations in North Bengal. Surrounded by dense woods, chirping birds, and unfiltered mountain air, this hidden gem near Takdah and Lamahatta is perfect for travelers seeking nature, silence, and raw Himalayan charm.

Unlike mainstream Darjeeling, Rampuria offers a slower pace of life.
