Beschrijving
Embark on a 6-day trek to Sandakphu and Phalut from Bagdogra. Enjoy views of the Sleeping Buddha formation of Kanchenjunga, explore the Singalila National Park, and stay in homestays.
Begin your trek with a drive from Bagdogra Airport or NJP Railway Station to Maneybhanjyang, the gateway to the Sandakphu trail. Pass through forested hills, tea gardens, and the Darjeeling region before reaching the highland base at approximately 2,150 meters.
Start your trek after breakfast and climb toward Tumling, around 2,970 meters. Follow the India-Nepal border zone through mountain settlements and SSB check-post areas. Experience gradual elevation gain, ridge views, and the first strong taste of Singalila trekking country.
Wake to a mountain sunrise before continuing toward Kalipokhri, around 3,186 meters. Move through varied terrain with forest sections, village stops, and lunch around Kaiyakata as per the trail plan. Overnight at Kalipokhri, a peaceful halt before the Sandakphu climb.
Trek approximately 6 km to Sandakphu, the highest point in West Bengal at 3,636 meters. This is the signature viewpoint day, with the Sleeping Buddha formation of Kanchenjunga and, on clear days, wider Himalayan views including Everest, Lhotse, and Makalu.
Continue the extended Sandakphu-Phalut experience along the Singalila Ridge. Phalut offers a quieter, more open 360-degree mountain panorama and is visited by fewer trekkers than Sandakphu. Depending on conditions, the route may continue toward Gorkhey or follow the arranged descent plan.
Complete the final descent through forested Himalayan villages toward Sepi or the confirmed roadhead. From there, continue by vehicle toward NJP, Bagdogra, or Siliguri, carrying back the trek’s mountain views, village memories, and ridge-walk experience.
