Mairung Gaon or Mayrong forest village, is a small village of Kalimpong. It is located on the way to Duka Valley, just before Tendrabong. It has an altitude of just above 5000ft. This place is nearly 10km away from Algarah. This offbeat place with lush greenery has recently fallen into travelers’ eyes.

Among the few homestays here, Pinecone Retreat Homestay is a good choice. It is run by a humble couple, for a few years. Their hospitality will make you feel at home instantly. Each room’s interior is decorated based on a different theme.

We had booked our vacation with Quick Trails on March ’24 and we had an amazing experience with them. Starting from the booking process with proper communication, planning, reasonable cost till the trip ends they were constantly in touch with us.
The homestay at Mairung Gaon was really great to spend our vacation amidst nature, hills, snow capped mountain. Hospitality was top notch, food was delicious. A home away home.
We would love to convey a BIG Thanks to Quick Trails for offering us sucha nice memory. We will definitely plan our next trip with them soon.
