Reshi Khola

Reshi Khola is a pebble-bed river valley on the border of Sikkim and West Bengal near Reshi village in Pakyong District, Sikkim. Formed by the Reshi River flowing from the Himalayas, it is known for its clear shallow waters, forested surroundings and tranquil riverside camping. It serves as an offbeat nature retreat between Pedong, Kalimpong and Aritar, popular for overnight stays, nature walks and birdwatching.

Visitors can expect a wide, open riverbed with smooth pebbles and shallow clear water flanked by forested hills. The site is developed for low-impact tourism with tented camps and small homestays along the riverbank. Areas to explore include the riverbank, shallow wading stretches, and surrounding trails. There are no large structures or monuments; the experience is centered on riverside relaxation, camping, bonfires, photography and nature walks in a quiet valley setting.
