The word Tinchuley means three ‘Chullas’ or ovens.

The leading effort comes from the Gurung family who has developed the model of homestay to suit their condition.

The village is located on the Ghoom – Mirik road just 8 kms from Ghoom and about 14 kms from Darjeeling town.The primary attraction of Lepchajagat is its view of the Kanchenjunga range along with that of Darjeeling town.
