Nature of Dooars
Dooars, part of the North Bengal, is an extremely
adventurous destination with choices for all
niches of travelers. From exploring the
unfamiliar jungles of Gorumara to hanging around
with tigers at Buxa Tiger Reserve the jungles
here offer exciting options. One can also choose
to take a Dooars Jungle Tour and spot all the
mysterious trees and birds around the region with
occasional views of wild animals.
Dooars is one of the very few places left in the
country where nature is so lavish of her green
facilities. The unending stretches of virgin
forests are cress-crossed by the River Teesta
and her innumerable tributaries. Looking like
molten silver against their setting sun,
beautiful motor able roads cut through the deep
forests, rich with wild life mauve hills stand
at the end of graceful plains.

The forest looks enchanting by the sweet songs of
the unknown birds. The melody of the grooves
forces you to surrender the sophistries you so
carefully have cultivated in the city. After a
day's journey through the splendid scenery,
A happy twilight will bid you retire in the cozy
comfort of luxurious log cabins, and leave for
you a million dreams of the glorious morrow
that is the Dooars. A land that loads you with
the gifts of nature.
