Sandakphu is the highest peak of West Bengal. Sandakphu trek is located on the outskirts of Singalila National Park near the Indo-Nepal border and has a tiny settlement at its peak. Sandakphu used to be a trekkers' heaven, but it is now becoming popular with regular tourists. As more tourists visit, Sandakphu will grow in popularity throughout the country. There are various things which nature has to offer here-
- Sandakphu provides a stunning vista of the world's four highest peaks, including Mount Kanchenjunga, Mount Everest, Mount Lhotse, and Mount Makalu, which create a continuous snow-clad arc along with many peaks of Sikkim, Tibet, Nepal, and Bhutan.
- Sunrise and sunset vistas are spectacular on the Sandakphu trek. Seeing the first rays of sunlight fall on some of the highest mountain summits is awe-inspiring. Sunsets at Kalipokhri and Sandakphu are also spectacular. Sandakphu has separate sites for sunrise and sunset.
- In the highlands, spring arrives in a riot of color. From the middle of April through the first week of June, this region is ablaze with rhododendron blooms and carpeted in gorgeous primula and other alpine flowers. The days of Singalila woodland hikes on this journey in the northeast at the height of spring have a festive vibe to them that you should keep an eye out for.
- The emerald green woodlands on the mountain slopes are home to over 600 different species of birds. Red pandas can also be found at Singalila National Park. These elusive critters skip around the rainforests, and you could be lucky enough to get one in your camera lens.
- When you arrive in Tumling, you will have your first unobstructed view of the Sleeping Buddha. You will be accompanied by the Sleeping Buddha most of the journey. It is also becoming closer and bigger by the day.
Sandakphu is a beautiful location and visit this beautiful place with the best trekking company Glacier Treks and Adventure and get the most out of your trekking experience.
