Siliguri to Gangtok: Route Highlights & Landmarks
The journey from Siliguri to Gangtok covers approximately 115 km via National Highway 10 (NH10). This scenic drive takes you from the plains of North Bengal into the heart of the Himalayas, running alongside the emerald-green Teesta River for most of the way.
Key Stops & Landmarks Along the Way:
Salugara & Sevoke Forest
As you leave Siliguri, you’ll drive through the lush Mahananda Wildlife Sanctuary. Keep an eye out for elephants near the Sevoke forest crossing!
Sevoke Coronation Bridge
A historic British-era architectural marvel. This iconic pink arch bridge marks the beginning of the hilly terrain and is a must-stop for a quick photo with the Teesta valley in the background.
Sevoke Kali Mandir
Perched on a hill, this sacred temple is where many travelers stop to seek blessings for a safe mountain journey. It also offers a stunning panoramic view of the river.
Teesta Bazaar
Located roughly halfway (around 55 km from Siliguri), this is the most popular pitstop. It’s perfect for a tea break, fresh local momos, or stretching your legs by the riverbank.
Melli (Sikkim-Bengal Border)
This is where you cross into the state of Sikkim. While Indian tourists don't need a permit for Gangtok, you’ll see the bustling border market and the confluence of the Teesta and Rangeet rivers nearby.
Rangpo Check Post
The official entry point into East Sikkim. All vehicles must stop briefly here for a quick entry log.
Singtam & Ranipool
The final stretch before the ascent to Gangtok. From here, the air gets cooler, and the winding roads offer the first glimpses of the capital city perched on the ridge above.
