Perched along the Indo–Nepal border in the Darjeeling district of West Bengal, Singalila National Park rises between 7,000 to 12,000 ft in the Eastern Himalayas. Mist-laden forests, dense bamboo thickets, and breathtaking views of Mt. Everest and Kanchenjunga make this one of India’s most spectacular high-altitude wildernesses.
But the true star of Singalila is the Red Panda (Ailurus fulgens) — the enchanting “firefox” of the Himalayas. With its russet coat, bushy ringed tail, and gentle, tree-dwelling habits, the Red Panda is one of the most sought-after mammals in the wild. Endangered and elusive, Singalila remains its most reliable stronghold in India.
Apart from the Red Panda, the park shelters Himalayan Black Bear, Clouded Leopard, and over 300 species of birds including Blood Pheasant and Satyr Tragopan.
Join us on a rare Himalayan expedition into one of India’s last wild havens — where every rustle in the bamboo could reveal a Red Panda.
