Pelling: What to see in the surroundings?
What our travelers think about their stay
Pelling serves as the departure point for numerous excursions into the southwest region of Sikkim. It is also the perfect place from which to get good views of Kangchenjunga.
My suggestion
You do have to get up early to see the mountain though because it disappears into the mist from 7:00 am onwards.

My suggestion
Pelling is not an exceptional place, and be prepared to walk a few kilometers in order to visit a very old and beautiful Buddhist monastery. The young monks either beginning or completing their training there are very friendly and welcoming.
