Description

Tumling is also a notable bird watching destination. During April and May, the hellscape was ablaze with Rhododendron and other wildflowers.

A pleasant place to spend the night, with a variety of lodges dotting the tranquil greenery. On a clear night, the lights of Darjeeling, Kurseong, Pasupati (Nepal), Siliguri, and other places may be seen. Tonglu (3036m) is a small village within the Singalila National Park in the Darjeeling sector, Darjeeling district, West Bengal, India, near the India-Nepal border, and one of the highest peaks of the Singalila Ridge. It’s a rest stop on the way from Manebhanjan to Sandakphu on the trekking route.

Property at Tumling Homestay:

The best place in Tumling is Siddhartha Lodge. You will be awestruck by the panoramic vista of Mount Kanchenjunga, Mount Kumbhakarna, Mount Kabur, and Mount Kaburdom. Because the home is situated on the Tumling overlook, visitors may enjoy spectacular dawn from the premises.

With ten standard rooms, the homestay is the perfect place to stay while visiting Singalila National Park. Rooms with triple beds, four beds, five beds, eight beds, and a dormitory are offered.

Tourist Attractions of Tumling Homestay:

In front of the lodges, there is a beautiful sight of Sleeping Budhha. A magnificent vista, more like an open field, is located in the heart of Tumling. The Kanchenjunga snow peaks can be seen well from the edge of this area. The Sandakphu peak may be seen on the distant left. The sunrise and sunset views are breathtaking. The golden rays cast a magnificent spell in the sky and on the Himalayan Range’s high peaks.

If the sky is clear at night, the brilliant stars and even the Milky Way can be seen in all their glory. You can go to a neighbouring temple, which is about a 5-minute walk from the lodges. The “sea” of clouds between the mountains can be very calming to the eyes if you’re lucky. Tonglu, located 1.5 kilometres away, is another lovely Singalila hamlet from where you may get a clear view of the famous Kanchenjunga group of peaks.
