Darjeeling, Sikkim & Singalila Ridge, India

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

Darjeeling, Sikkim, and the Singalila Ridge form one of India's most spectacular Himalayan regions, straddling the borders of Nepal, Bhutan, and Tibet in the far northeast of the country. Darjeeling is world-famous for its tea estates, colonial-era charm, and sweeping views of Kangchenjunga — the world's third-highest peak — while the state of Sikkim offers pristine Buddhist monasteries, alpine lakes like Gurudongmar, and rich biodiversity across lush valleys and high-altitude terrain. The Singalila Ridge is a premier trekking destination, with multi-day trails offering some of the finest Himalayan panoramas in Asia, including views of Everest, Lhotse, and Makalu on clear days. Travellers come here for high-altitude trekking, wildlife spotting in Khangchendzonga National Park, cultural immersion in Tibetan Buddhist communities, and the slower rhythms of hill-station life.
