Latpanchar Birding Tour

Latpanchar, a picturesque hamlet nestled near the Kalimpong hills in the Eastern Himalayas, has blossomed into a premier birding hotspot. Renowned for sightings of the majestic Rufous-necked Hornbill and the resplendent Red-headed Trogon, this tranquil destination naturally beckons wildlife enthusiasts.

The exclusive birding expeditions begin from November onwards, perfectly timed to welcome magnificent winter birds descending to these lower-altitude havens. Latpanchar is just two hours from Siliguri town, with Bagdogra Airport around three hours away.

As the winter chill sets in, Latpanchar transforms into an absolute paradise for avian photography. Deep within pristine forests, specialized water hides offer an excellent vantage point to observe vibrant forest dwellers and seasonal migrants in a relaxed and immersive way.
