How to reach Tinchuley 

Tinchuley is 32kms from Darjeeling (1.5 hours by car),  73kms from NJP (about 2.5 hours), 77kms from Bagdogra (about 3 hours) and 35 kms from Kalimpong (about 1.5 hours drive).  While coming from NJP/Siliguri by taxi, you will need to take Sevoke Road (NH10) and go towards Teesta Bazaar. Along the way you will go past places like Klijhora, Rambi Bazaar etc., and after going past the Teesta Bridge and about 2kms thereafter there is a sharp semicircular turn to the left starting an uphill journey… this is Peshok Road which is fairly steep and condition of the road is usually not good. Initially from forests of bamboo and pines the landscape changes to forest of tall trees.
