Kurseong in Monsoon (June - September)

This is the least advisable time to visit Kurseong owing to the frequent landslides, sometimes coupled with cloudbursts and torrential rainfall, although the cool breeze and pleasant climate allure some visitors in this offseason. Many individuals prefer to visit Kurseong during these months as the heavy rainfall received by the hill station transforms the place into something otherworldly. The town is shrouded in a thin veil of mist and the avalanche of waterworks for the hill station as the scenery, including the tea plantations, makes the hills shine greener than usual.
