The Rock Garden and Gangamaya Park offers attractive picnic spots with natural waterfalls and boating facilities and is about 10-12 kilometers from the main Darjeeling town. There is a lake at the Gangamaya Park which is open for boating purposes.
Note: It can be difficult to arrange for transportation back to Darjeeling from the park so visitors are advised to organize transportation both ways.
