Visited during the evening Aarathi, which was a nice experience. Spacious temple with good parking space. Served by Ola cabs too. Good photo spot also. Many deities in small temples inside as well. Crowds are unpredictable. Be careful about Covid practices, which are insited but rarely followed. The canteen did not appear to be hygienic or service-oriented. Badly behaved staff at the canteen.

I visited my Aunt's place in last July ,who was in Siligudi. I was there for 2 days and the wanderlust inside me wanted to explore all possible places nearby within 2 days. That was a family trip to Mirik, well they had already visited twice but accompanied me again to visit Mirik, as they loved that place. Distance: ~46kms from Siligudi. So we woke up early had breakfast and left around 10 am for Mirik. The whole route was breathtaking,crossed tea estates,bamboo forests,dense forests with lush green view. I have been to places near Mumbai in monsoons but here the whole view was different. Its true India looks different at the same time. Mirik is a picturesque tourist spot nestled in the serene hills of Darjeeling district in West Bengal, India. When we reached lake, nothing was visible as everything was covered with the clouds. After the clouds we crossed beautiful bridge to reach some top to view Mirik, its a small village near Darjeeling. It should be a must visit place if you are planning trip to Darjeeling. Spent several hours sitting and enjoying the beautiful lake view and lush green surrounding. Left for Siligudi before sunset. Its not advisable to drive in night here as the roads are not safe. Happy Traveling !!! Here are the pictures you can enjoy the beauty of Mirik.

Suggesting tour operators are not recommended here. There are lots of Bike Rental companies in Siliguri, but you have to look for them yourself. One more thing, as far as I know, commercial bikes are not allowed permits by RSTA. But as I'm not 100% sure about this, I'd ask you to check with RSTA once (by calling them up), before renting one. Else to be on the safer side, hire bikes from Bhutan based operators who can provide you Bhutan registered ones. Another thing to note that is last week of June is almost full fledged monsoon. Hope you are aware of that. And hope you are accustomed with driving on hilly regions, if not driving in monsoon in hilly regions can be dangerous. Edited: 5 years ago
