Introduction
Reshi Hot Springs, on the banks of the Rangeet river in South Sikkim, are natural sulphur springs believed to have therapeutic properties, drawing visitors seeking a relaxing soak amid a scenic riverside forest setting. The springs' relatively modest development, without extensive commercial spa infrastructure, gives the site a more natural, unpolished character than more heavily developed hot spring destinations elsewhere in India.
Reshi's combination of natural hot water and riverside scenery makes it a pleasant, low-key stop for visitors exploring South and West Sikkim, offering a genuinely relaxing break from the region's more demanding mountain trekking and monastery-focused sightseeing.
History
The hot springs at Reshi have long been valued by local communities for their perceived therapeutic properties, a tradition that continues to draw visitors specifically seeking the springs' warm mineral water.
Best time to visit
October to March, and April to June.
How to reach
About 55km from Gangtok, near the West Sikkim border, roughly 2.5-3 hours by road.
