A Brief History of Your Destination
The British established this town in the late nineteenth century. They loved the mild, pleasant climate. The town grew rapidly around the famous narrow-gauge railway. Lush tea gardens soon covered the massive hillsides. You can still see this distinct colonial architecture today.
The Best Time to Visit Kurseong in 2026
You usually want to avoid the heavy monsoon rains. March through May offers bright, clear skies. September through November brings crisp, cool air. Winter gets cold but remains stunningly beautiful. We run our tours happily all year long.
