Jelapla View Point, Kalimpong
About
Jelepla View Point is only few minutes drive from the town. It was built by the Indian army. You will need to walk up along a narrow uphill pathway to reach up to the point from where you get the views through wired fence. The netted wire fence is to protect from any accident. It's a huge steep fall into a deep gorge. Look towards north and you can see the Jelepla pass (and therefore the name of this view point). This pass used to be the traditional route through which once trade took place with Tibet. From the view point you can also see the confluence of Teesta, Relli and Reang rivers.
