A lush pine forest, vast stretch of tea plantations and the delightful fragrance of plum blossoms – this is what I can think of when I remember our trip to Lamahatta. A quaint village in North Bengal, Lamahatta serves as a perfect romantic getaway surrounded by mountains, farmlands and forests. Though very close to the tourist famous Darjeeling town, Lamahatta is still fairly offbeat and holds a charm that is hard to resist. Many people visiting Darjeeling usually visit Lamahatta on a day trip. But the real charm is in spending a night in this village and exploring it leisurely.
Fact Check
Lamahatta has been developed as an eco tourism destination by the Govt of West Bengal. The Govt has worked closely with the residents to set up tourism in a way where the ecological balance is maintained and the villagers can also benefit from it. So there are no luxury stays or fancy restaurants in the village. Instead the only accommodation options here are the home stays run by the residents. A stay in this village is all about spending time amidst nature, breathing fresh air and appreciating the beauty all around. If you are a person looking for comfort and luxury, then Lamahatta may not be the place for you.
