How To Reach Bakkhim Village

Yuksom, Sikkim, India
Bakkhim Village is a picturesque forest settlement perched at an altitude of approximately 2,743 meters within the Kanchenjunga National Park. This tiny hamlet serves as the first major resting point for trekkers embarking on the famous Goecha La and Dzongri expeditions. Historically, it was home t o a few families, but today it primarily functions as a vital transit point offering basic shelter and a forest rest house. The village is surrounded by dense thickets of Rhododendron, Magnolia, and Oak trees, providing a lush green canopy that changes color with the seasons. From here, one can catch the first glimpses of the snow-clad peaks of the Mount Pandim and Kabru ranges. The atmosphere is characterized by the sound of whistling birds and the rustle of mountain winds, making it a sanctuary for those seeking solitude. Bakkhim Village is not just a geographical marker but a spiritual threshold where the air grows thinner and the majesty of the high Himalayas begins to reveal itself to the weary traveler. It represents the raw, untamed beauty of Sikkim, where nature remains largely undisturbed by modern infrastructure.
