You don't need to have cygwin installed. Gtk for windows is native.

Basically you need
0) Python
http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.5/
1) Gtk runtime
http://gladewin32.sourceforge.net/
2) PyCairo
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/binaries/win32/pycairo/1.4/
3) PyGobject
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/binaries/win32/pygobject/2.14/
4) PyGtk
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/binaries/win32/pygtk/2.12/

There used to be a combined pygtk installer that installed these all at
once, but it seems to have not been updated in ages
