What we know
West Bengal's first organised rock-climbing course was held here in January 1965. Clubs still run winter courses.
This is a smaller area. It has few climbs or little written down. Do not expect a guide, pad rental or a place to stay for climbers. Go with someone who knows the place, and check access before you travel.
