About Durpin View Point

Perched atop Kalimpong's southwestern ridge at 1,372 meters, Durpin View Point offers sweeping vistas of the Teesta and Rangeet rivers, the snow-capped Kanchenjunga, and the distant Jelepla Pass. The name "Durpin," meaning "binocular" in Nepali, aptly describes the expansive views from this hill. At its summit stands the serene Zang Dhok Palri Monastery, consecrated by the Dalai Lama in 1976, housing 108 volumes of the sacred Kangyur texts. Nearby, a picturesque army-maintained golf course adds to the locale's charm. Easily accessible by road, Durpin View Point is a harmonious blend of natural beauty, spiritual significance, and colonial heritage.

Booked: Assam & Meghalaya Discovery - Mystic Caves to Living Roots

Had a lovely experience exploring Assam and Meghalaya with Viacation. The team was very responsive and ensured everything went as planned. The destinations were stunning, and we got to explore culture, nature, and local food too. Would surely recommend them for a relaxed and well-curated Northeast trip!

Poora tour bahut achhi tarah se manage kiya gaya tha. Pickup aur transfers time pe the aur cab driver bhi friendly aur knowledgeable tha. Sightseeing spots like Dawki River, Living Root Bridge, aur Kaziranga safari hamesha yaad rahegi. Viacation ka thanks bolna chahunga for itna achha plan banane ke liye!
