In addition to its reputation as a lesser-known destination, Latpanchar is renowned for its extensive bird population. Within the dense forests that envelop Latpanchar, over 240 bird species, including the Burn Swallow, Ashy Backed Shrike, and Spotted Eagles, have been observed. However, the richness of Latpanchar's wooded expanse extends even further, as it serves as a habitat for the exquisite, vibrant, and endangered Rufous Necked Hornbill.

Close to the Latpanchar Village and about 600 meters away is Sittong Rock, spot located by the roadside. During the monsoon time, you can see waterfall in full force gushing down the rocks to its right. The rocks are used by Amateurs and novices to practice rock climbing. It's a picturesque spot for a photo shoot as well.

Expanding across a sprawling expanse of 159 km within reserve forests, Mahananda Wildlife Sanctuary was initially established as a game sanctuary in 1955. Recognizing the urgency to safeguard the endangered Indian bison and royal Bengal tiger, it was granted the status of a sanctuary in 1959. This designation aimed primarily at protecting these species from the looming threat of extinction.

The Ahal Dara Viewpoint stands as a prominent tourist attraction in close proximity. Located just 7 km away, this viewpoint provides a panoramic vista encompassing Kurseong, Chatakpur, Namchi, Dooars, and Siliguri. Moreover, from the hilltop of Ahaldara, visitors can indulge in the mesmerizing spectacle of the meandering Teesta River, along with captivating views of the Kalimpong, Lava, Lolegaon, Tinchuley hills, and beyond.
