The Elgin Mt. Pandim offers a unique and personal tryst with Himalayas. Set in eight acrres of virgin forest and landscaped garden, it revokes the old charm of its first owners- the royal familiy of Sikkim and offers a peaceful retreat about one hundred and fifty kilometers from Siliguri with a glorious view of the Singalila range. The three hundred year old Pemayangste monastery is right next to the resort on a verdant hill top covered by the moist temperate oak forests.

It offers an excellent vantage point for watching rare birds including the Green-tailed sunbirds, Rufous-gorgeted Flycatchers, Scimiter Babblers and Laughing Thrushes.
