Your expert’s note

Nainital district notes that Tiffin Top and Land's End sit side by side and are best done in one go — most pony packages quote for only one, so agree the route before you set off. Walking up takes about an hour from Barapathar and is genuinely pleasant; the pony is worth it only on the way down.
