Question Using ATM in Sikkim ?

Anybody knows is we can trust to find ATM in Sikkim and Darjeeling?

We want to spend 4 weeks in this area, mainly trekking. I know we'll need cash in small villages, but ... is it possible to get rupies in Darjeeling and Gangtok (or other main places) from ATM's?

For currency and talking about this area of India: Euros (we are Spanish) or Dollars ?

thanks

There are ATMs in both Darjeeling (at chowrasta) and Gangtok (at the center), Both are state bank of india.
You can exchange either dollars or euros , i think it'd be easier for you to bring euros, but it's up to you.

You should bring travellers/cash too , in case ATM wouldn't work. (Never happened to me)

Hope I helped.
