Old styled tea bungalow with a crackling fire place and great food. They even arranged for a picnic by the river side and it was a great time which we shared. Your travelogue brought back those memories.

You mentioned that you had travelled in May - so was it May 2020?

If yes, did you require any vehicle passes while entering/exiting districts? What precautions did you take? Did you have any contigency plan, if there was sudden lockdown enforced again etc.?

Best Regards,

Thank you very much dada for your kind words.
It's my mistake, I should have mentioned the year. It was May 2019, last year.
This year no trips as of now.

Re: Unplanned Family Trip to Lava, West Bengal

Thanks for clarifying SVK Rider!
When the lockdown was first lifted WBFDC/TDC had opened up their hotels. Hence thought your trip would have been an eye opener for us.

Given the current situation, I dont think any trip is very unlikely this year for me :(

Best Regards,
Sayak

Nice travelogue and crisply written. After going through your travelogue Lava is definitely in my bucket list once the lockdown and pandemic is over. Would like to request you for the contact details of WBFDC.

Re: Unplanned Family Trip to Lava, West Bengal

Beautiful Photographs and a crisp travelogue. brought back some fond memories from a trip few of us bhpians from Assam had undertaken in 2016 to North Bengal and East Sikkim. We also happened to stay at the WBFDC lodge at Lava and the view from the cottages were just amazing.

Thank you so much.
Lava is really an awesome place.
I have booked through online from WBFDC website
https://www.wbfdc.com/

Click on to their Nature Resorts tab and you will get to select the Location and all details will be there.

Thank you very much. Every-time I visit Lava i make sure to stay on WBFDC only. The food and staying experience have always been superb.
