| SINGELELA
RANGE TREK (DARJEELING)
These
treks climb steeply, for two days, to reach the Sandakphu-
Phalut ridge at an altitude of 3600 meters. Enroute there
are the lovely forest of the Sigelila national park and the
view point of the Kanchendzonga range towering over a basin
of silver firs and rhododendrons, in the fore ground. In the
West at a distance of 160 kms, the peaks of the Everest Group
are visible , while to the East lie the Chola Range, with
passes leading to Tibet. The walk from Sandakphu to Phalut
is gentle, through meadows, forest, wild flowers, and Himalayan
flora, with the Mighty peaks always in the background . The
knee wobbling descent to Rimbick is through forests, flora
and mountain streams. Mar to may is best seasons for flora
in bloom, whilst Oct-Dec are ideal for views
