Experience A Sense Of Accomplishment By Climbing The 3rd Highest Mountain In The World!
A trip to Darjeeling wouldn’t be complete without witnessing the Kanchenjunga Mountain - India’s highest and the world’s 3rd highest mountain *WOAH*!
During sunrise, this mega wonder morphs into a majestic jewel and is a sight to behold! The snow-capped beauty will definitely leave you awestruck by its glistening glory which is known to adapt to different colours during different times of the day! *starry eyed*.
It is home to a large variety of rhododendrons and orchids and many endangered species like Snow Leopards, Asiatic Black Bears, Himalayan Musk Deers and Red Pandas.
If you love trekking and want to be a mountain climber, you can consider coming here as only 243 climbers have reached the top of Kanchenjunga since 1955. Beware as the route to the top is not easy due to high threats of avalanches.
Among the trekking trails, Goecha La trek and Green Lake Basin treks are popular or climbing Tiger Hill is your best bet.
Also, make sure you visit the Darjeeling War Memorial which gives stunning views of the Kanchenjunga range!
So climb the crown of Darjeeling right now and feel the sense of accomplishment!
