Yuksam Village Farmstay is a family-run retreat set at 1,780 metres in the heart of Yuksam, Sikkim’s historic first capital, where the Chogyal of Sikkim was crowned in 1641. Surrounded by terraced farms, ancient Himalayan forests, and prayer flags, the farmstay reflects the rich cultural heritage of Lepcha, Bhutia, and Nepali traditions. Guests are welcomed as divine visitors, in keeping with generations of Sikkimese hospitality — “a home where the hearth is never cold and the door is always open to the weary traveller.”

Whether you’re setting off on the legendary Goecha La trek, exploring nearby monasteries and sacred lakes, or simply savoring farm-fresh Sikkimese meals under a starlit sky, Yuksam Village Farmstay offers an authentic Himalayan village experience.

Step Into the Wild Himalayas

Located at the gateway to Kanchenjunga National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the farmstay serves as a base for the Goecha La trek, along with shorter excursions to Dubdi Monastery (Sikkim’s oldest, built in 1701), Kathok Lake, and the historic Norbugang Coronation Park.
