Mirik
Mirik, a nest in the hills is one of the most famous hill resorts in West Bengal.
It is located at an altitude of 1767 metres and has its own special charm.
It is 49 kms from Darjeeling and 52 km from Siliguri. The 1.25 km "Long Lake" is fed by perennial streams.
A floating fountain in the middle of the lake is a joy forever and very often, you may find the glory of Kanchenjunga reflected in the lake waters.
A rich forest with thousands of Cryptomaria-Japanica trees clothes the slopes on the west.
A 3.5 km zigzag foot walk takes you along the lake – a sleek footbridge connects the garden on the east with the woods on the west.
Alone or with company, you are sure to enjoy a boat-ride in the lake.
