Rishop or also spelt as Rishyap is a Himalayan hamlet in West Bengal. 2591 m above sea-level, it's a nice quaint village away from city crowds, with picturesque views of snow-capped mountains. The sun plays vermillion through the day. At night the big sky seems to come closer. Beneath the sky the twinkling lights of Gangtok & Pedong are similar to the twinkling stars above. Tourists are attracted by the natural beauty of Neora Valley National Park & Tiffindara and waking up with the view of the Majestic Kanchenjunga is the primary reason behind the popularity of Rishop.
Apart from the Kanchenjunga range, a visitor can also see the Sikkim, Bhutan and Nepal mountains including Jelep la from Rishop. Nathula, the famous Into-Chinese boarder that has been opened up for trade, is also visible from here. The blue mountains of Sikkim by its side are also worth watching. Nathu La and Jalep La are also visible from Rishyap. There is a fascinating 3 km trek through the dense forests towards the mountain top, Tiffindara, deftly negotiating the bushes and boulders en-route. Tourist will stop many times gasping for breath, only to be mesmerized by the enchanting beauty of the woods.
