A quaint, sleepy little town in Darjeeling, Mirik sits about 50 km away from the main town of Darjeeling, making for a two hours drive. It houses several sweeping tea gardens that Darjeeling is celebrated widely for. While travelling to Mirik, make it a point to visit the well known Thurbo tea estate of Goodricke, and the Gopaldhara tea estate. Apart from the iconic tea gardens, the town also fosters a vast range of orange orchards, spread over the rich grasslands. The Mirik Lake is yet another relatively unexplored sight, where you can spend the best part of your evenings, or early mornings if staying overnight. While you explore the untrodden paths of Mirik, the mighty mountain peaks keep a close watch over you.
