Flowing through Sikkim and Darjeeling, the river Tista is the most important river of Sikkim and North Bengal. The importance of the river in the culture and economy of the region can hardly be exagerated.

Originating from the glaciers of Northern Sikkim at an elevation of 8500 m above the mean sea level Tista is fed by the glaciers viz. Zemu, Changame Khanpu, Talung etc.

Tista is an international river, which flows through the states of Sikkim and West Bengal in the Indian Territory and then to Bangladesh. Apart from its varied landscape Tista forms a diverse ecosystem throughout its more than 200kms long journey from high mountainous region of Sikkim to the low land of North Bengal. Tista flows freely, fearlessly and ferociously too.

Rafting in Tista is one of the more common adventure tourism activity. Find out more about Rafting in Tista.
