Introduction
On a sprawling estate amidst green hills and terraced farmland overlooking a magnificent view of Khangchendzonga at Biksthang, Chuchen, Mangalbarey in West Sikkim, the Bliss Resort is an ideal retreat for nature lovers and those in quest of peaceful times.
Strategically located in the touristic sense, all significant destinations in the region, such as Bagdogra Airport, Darjeeling, Gangtok and Kalimpong, are within 3 to 4 hours driving distance. Asides this, only an hour and a half’s driving time separates it from Pelling / Pemayangtse, thus allowing the visitor to cover the sightseeing highlights of West Sikkim such as monasteries and viewpoints within a day’s excursion and then to retire to the comforts of the resort at day’s end. Also, within the surroundings of the resort are ideal areas for day hikes, fishing and mountain-biking as well as great opportunities for bird watching.
The views from the resort, other than that of the snow-clad Himalayas include a broad stretch of the Rangeet River Valley and above it, the surging hills of Sikkim’s South district. And all around is rural countryside with pockets of hamlets and farmhouses – idyllic scenes of farmers and villagers at work and children at play – a feast-full of memorable sights. More so, the tranquil ambience that comes by with the resort’s remoteness from urban centers makes it a truly remarkable spot for a peaceful vacation.
