Rikisum View Point

Perched at an altitude of 6,000 feet, Rikisum is one of Kalimpong’s best-kept secrets — a tranquil, untouched settlement tucked deep within thick pine forests and embraced by the towering peaks of the Eastern Himalayas. Still largely unexplored, this virgin destination offers a soul-soothing escape into nature's raw, unfiltered beauty.

Far from the chaos of modern life, Rikisum is where silence speaks, the air is pine-scented, and the horizon melts into snow-capped dreams. Whether you’re a nature lover, a photographer, or simply a weary soul in search of calm, this peaceful hilltop offers a rare blend of solitude and grandeur.

Rikisum may not be on every tourist’s map — but perhaps that’s exactly why it should be on yours.
