SINGALILA NATIONAL PARK
Singalila, Darjeeling, West Bengal, India
Singalila National Park is a reserved forest area located at the Singalila ridge in Darjeeling district. This is a high altitude park spanning between 7,900 feet to about 12,000 feet covering an area of 78.6 square kms. This is in fact the highest altitude park in the state of West Bengal. It was initially a wild life sanctuary and later made into a national park in 1992. The whole of Singalila range and the national park has long been part of the trekking route to Sandakphu and Phalut.
Singalila national park has two ranges. The southern range starts shortly after Manebhanjan and extends through Tonglu, Tumling, Gairibas, Kalipokhari, Bikheybhanjan and all the way up to Sandakphu (11,909 feet) and beyond to Phalut (11,811 feet). Sandakphu and Phalut are the two highest peaks of Singalila range. For visits to the park, this route is most popular to tourists. There is also a gravel road for jeeps that goes through the park along this route up to Sandakphu and Phalut. The northern range of the park is accessible through Rimbik. To the north of the park is Sikkim and to its west is Nepal.
