    Lost for words to explain about the experience

    To reach the observatory hill is a daunting task. To wake up in the wee hours, esply if you have kids along and then the short cut through the dark path, just following the people in front of you assured that they too are headed...More

    Good morning

    So you've to be there by 0515 AM .. usually sunrise is near 6 AM ... however the earlier the go, better for you to capture a nice spot to witness this mesmerizing view.

    Crowded, quite noisie.

    Quite great untisipation for sunrise. At first glimpse of sunrise place becomes noise and and a bit quaotic. A lot of movement. I guess what I'm trying to say if one once to watch sunrise in piece chose another place.

    Sunrise view on Kanchenjunga Peak

    Fabulous view of the sunrise on Kanchenjunga Mountain from Tiger Hill. Very early start and plenty of transports going in that direction. If you find yourself in Darjeeling it's worth the early wake up to see this spectacular event. Visited in Oct 2012.

    Cream of the Crop

    We had to leave at 4 am to travel to Tiger Hill to witness the sunrise. Well worth the sacrifice of sleep for the amazing atmosphere with thousands of visitors converging on one hill. The drive to Tiger Hill is awesome. A Must see trip.

    NOT SO GREAT!

    Wouldnt recommend it anymore. Lots of people, and having to wake up early in the morning. Not worth it. Better to see the sunrise from the viewpoint from the mall. We were lucky to stay at Little Tibet. We walked 100 metres at around 4:30...More

    Depends on how far you get parking from the Tiger Hill viewing point. The climb is quite steep

    We could also get a great view from Glenary's Bakery restaurant in Darjeeling...we sat on the tables in the open balcony which provides you a picturesque view of the mountain range
