After quick breakfast we will join our trackers (who will be tracking since early morning) in search of Red Pandas.
After a full day on the field, we will return to the lodge at Tumling and spend the evening at leisure. Tumling will be our base for the next 4 nights.

While our trackers head out in search of the Red Panda, we shall identify suitable trails for searching for Red Panda as well along with looking for other species of birds and mammals immediately post breakfast.
Singalila is home to several species of birds and you must engage yourselves with bird watching, while the trackers are out looking for Red Panda. As soon as the trackers notify the leader of their find, you will be taken for the sighting.
The Landrovers will be there in support to drive you to various spots. You can opt to walk to the sighting spot or choose to go by land rover, if the sighting is close to a motor-able road.
