Photography in Kalimpong
The clearest views of Kanchenjunga come between October and December and again in March and April. Tiger Hill, Pelling, Sandakphu and Zuluk are the classic dawn points.
We plan photography routes around light, not checklists, with early starts, unhurried mornings and drivers who will stop when you ask.
