Hidden Gems Near Jangpana Waterfall (Perfect by
Bike)
1. Jangpana Tea Garden
Just
before reaching the waterfall, take a quick detour to visit this beautiful,
historic tea estate. It's not commercialized like others, offering serene
views and vintage British-era structures.
Why visit
by bike?
The narrow, winding estate roads are best enjoyed on two wheels.
2. Naya Busti Viewpoint
A small
hilltop clearing that offers panoramic views of the surrounding valleys,
tea gardens, and the Balasun River below. It’s often missed by car travelers
due to road width.
Tip: Pack snacks and enjoy a quiet
sit-down with a view.
3. Mahanadi Riverbend
This
gentle river curve surrounded by dense greenery is the perfect quick stop.
It's a lesser-known riverside picnic spot and is rarely crowded.
Best for: Riders who want a peaceful
photography or meditation break.
4. Lower Bagora Forest Trails
If you
love light off-roading, take your bike into the Lower Bagora forest zone.
Small trails lead to bamboo groves, secret streams, and birdwatching points.
Caution: Ride slowly and respectfully
through the forest — it’s protected.
5. Margarets Hope Tea Estate (Back Trail)
Skip the
main road and take the inner trail behind Margarets Hope. You'll find
misty roads, isolated huts, and some of the best riding curves in the region.
Pro tip: Visit at sunrise for dreamy
golden light through the trees.
6. Sittong Loop Ride
After
Jangpana, take your bike down to Sittong, a quiet hamlet famous for
