Yelbong Homestay & Canyon Trek – 1 Night, 2 Days Offbeat Adventure

Escape into the untouched wilderness of Yelbong with this 1 Night, 2 Days Offbeat Adventure Package — a perfect mix of trekking, nature exploration, and authentic village living. Hidden deep within the Kalimpong district, Yelbong is an unspoiled paradise for travellers seeking peace, raw beauty, and adventure far from the tourist trails.

Day 1: Arrive, Check-in & Choose Your Adventure – Canyon Trek or Village Exploration

Welcome to Yelbong Forest Homestay, your cozy mountain retreat nestled amid lush green hills. Upon arrival, refresh yourself with a glass of traditional welcome drinks and prepare for an unforgettable nature escape.

After check-in, it’s time to choose your adventure:

• Option 1: Full Yelbong Canyon Trek (6–7 hours)
  If you arrive before noon, you can begin the legendary Yelbong Canyon Trek the same day. Packed lunch will be provided as you set out through dense forests, rocky slopes, and hidden canyons carved by the Rumti River. Traverse bamboo bridges, spot colourful butterflies, and witness secret waterfalls — a pure Himalayan wilderness experience.

• Option 2: Short Trek & Village Exploration
  For guests checking in later (after 2 PM), unwind with a traditional homemade lunch before heading out for a shorter hike or a village walk. Explore the offbeat charm of Yelbong Village — visit Bobo Ghar and the 360° Viewpoint for breathtaking landscapes and sunset photography.

As golden hour paints the hills, make your way to Yelbong Ground to witness a magical sunset over the mountains. Return to your homestay by evening and gather around a warm campfire under a starlit sky. Enjoy tasty local snacks or an optional BBQ, share stories with fellow travellers, and end your day with a delicious dinner made from fresh, local ingredients.
Sleep peacefully surrounded by the serene sounds of the forest — ready for more adventure tomorrow.

Day 2: Canyon Trek (If Not Done on Day 1) & Departure

Wake up early to the sounds of birds and rustling trees. After a hearty breakfast, gear up for the Yelbong Canyon Trek (if not completed on Day 1).

This 6–7-hour guided trek takes you through breathtaking canyons, lush forests, and riverbanks — a thrilling experience that showcases the raw, untouched beauty of Yelbong. Traverse handmade bamboo bridges, discover secret waterfalls, and connect deeply with nature’s wild rhythm.

You’ll return by early afternoon (around 12 PM–2 PM), wrapping up your adventure with memories that will last a lifetime.
