Through the Maenam wildlife santuary : South Sikkim, Eastern Himalaya, India- IV

A short note

 

 

Being 120 kms away from Siliguri in North Bengal, India, Rabangla is situated at an elevation of 8000 ft with its famous Maenam wildlife santuary (35 square kilometres) for Great Himalayan Bears, Red Pandas, and Birds. The literal meaning of 'Maenam-La' is "Treasure house of medicines". Maenam is also famous for a 12km trekking from Rabangla to Maenam top at 3140m, for its spectacular lookout point. We had a wonderful trekking experience this time, through this forest for a stretch of 18 kms (up and down). It seemed to me truly a paradise for nature lovers.
