Tiger Hill, at around 2,590 m, is Darjeeling's most celebrated viewpoint, renowned for its sunrise over Kanchenjunga — when the peaks glow gold and pink at first light. On exceptionally clear days, distant Everest is also visible. Visitors set out well before dawn to reach the summit in time; it can be busy in peak season.
How to reach Tiger Hill
Roughly 11 km from Darjeeling; shared jeeps and taxis run early-morning sunrise trips.
