Notes on Tours in Darjeeling and Sikkim (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Notes on Tours in Darjeeling and Sikkim The following notes and lists of itineraries of trips in Sikkim are published by the Darjeeling Improvement Fund to encourage more visitors to Darjeeling to make use of the splendid opportunities for enjoying brief holidays in Sikkim. The journeys here described are usually short and such as may be done in 10 or 15 days' leave. A few preliminary notes on the history and geography of Sikkim are first given, then a list of trips and a brief description of the most popular and best tours.
