Barsey Rhododendron Sanctuary
Pelling, Sikkim, India
The Barsey Rhododendron Sanctuary is a stunning protected area in West Sikkim, renowned for its spectacular display of rhododendrons in full bloom during the spring months (March to May). Spanning across an altitude range of 2,200 to 4,100 meters, the sanctuary is home to over 40 species of rhodode ndrons, painting the hillsides in vibrant hues of red, pink, white, and purple. Trekking through the well-marked trails within the sanctuary offers breathtaking views of the Kanchenjunga range and an immersive experience in the colorful forests. The trails pass through silver fir, hemlock, and magnolia forests, adding to the biodiversity of the region. Basic trekkers' huts are available for overnight stays, allowing for multi-day exploration. The sanctuary is also home to various species of birds and small mammals. The serene atmosphere and the stunning floral displays make it a paradise for nature lovers, trekkers, and photographers. Reaching the entry points of Hilley or Dentam from Pelling involves a scenic drive through winding mountain roads.
