Sandakphu or Sandakpur at 3,636 m (11,929 ft)[1] is a mountain peak in the Singalila Ridge on the border between India and Nepal.

The peak is located at the edge of the Singalila National Park and has a small village on the summit with a few hotels.

[4][5] The trek along the Singalila Ridge to Sandakphu and Phalut is one of the most popular in the Eastern Himalayas, owing not only to the stupendous vistas of the Kangchenjunga and Everest ranges which it affords, but also to its seasonal wildflowers and opportunities for birdwatching.

[6] The Sandakphu Trekking routes inside the Singalila National Park have four legs or stages.

The trekking starts from Ilam Bazar via Maipokhari, Maimajhuwa, Mabu, Kala Pokhri Bikhe Bhyanjyang to Sandakpur, and also from Ilam Bazar via Sulubung, Jamuna, Hangetham (a special area for birds such as the spiny babbler and blue tit), Piple, Kalipokhari, Bikhe Vanjyang to Sandakpur.
