Eagle Crag in Kurseong is one of the must visit place in the land of white orchids “Kharsang”. The beautiful tourist attraction is almost 1 kilometer away from the town Kurseong. Eagle Carge is also commonly known as EC and it is the perfect place to hangout especially for local teens. To reach the Eagle’s Carg one can hire a taxi from the town or can hike through the peaceful and beautiful roads. This is a nice and lovely view point along with a garden on the hill top and the place is located at the end of the road and Eagle’s Carg is the highest point on this mountain. A small concrete stairway leads up to the garden above where the garden is full of hedges and flowering plantations. There are varieties of flowers in the garden and during the time of flower bloom the garden looks really beautiful. Many locals and the tourists visit the place during that time especially to take the pictures since it becomes one of the perfect places to take the pictures. On one side of the garden there is a tower from where we can view the panoramic view of the entire place. The views of the mountains on the opposite side and also that of the lower plains from here are spectacular. There is a Gorkha Memorial “Shahid Smarak”, a Khukuri paying tribute to the ones who lost their life in the agitations in the hills. Water reservoir for the entire town of Kurseong is in this place. One can see the very beautiful night view of Siliguri from this place, the distance from Kurseong to Siliguri is approximately 32.9 kilometers which is around one hour ten minutes drive. The place is very well maintained and it is open throughout the year.
