Also known as Kawlay Dara Viewpoint, Tingling Viewpoint gives an astounding view of the surrounding tea gardens, the Mirik Lake and also the beautiful Mirik Valley. The name Tingling comes from the nearby tea estate. The sprawling tea plantations form a stark contrast to the white snow and blue sky. It is an ideal place for both sunrise and sunset and also one can take some beautiful pictures of the plains as well as the snow-capped hills.

The village Sourenee can be seen from this point, and the pleasant atmosphere of this region is quite satisfying to the mind.
