It is roughly 10.5&nbsp;km uphill from the town of Manebhanjan and is a common stop for the trekkers going up to [Sandakphu](/source/Sandakphu).{{citation needed|date=March 2018}} 
From Manebhanjan where the trek or the Jeep safari starts, Tumling is at a distance of about 10.5&nbsp;km. There are probably only 10 to 12 Nepali families who live here. 
There are also few private lodges and huts that have come up here to cater to [tourists](/source/tourists) & trekkers heading towards Sandakphu. 
Tumling actually is part of Nepal although there is no restriction for Indians or foreigners with Indian visa.  In fact the border between India and Nepal in this part is quite blurred and there is a free way for all.{{citation needed|date=March 2018}} 
One is able to see the [Kangchenjunga](/source/Kangchenjunga) Range from here and going forward for about 15 minutes visitors can notice the [Mount Everest](/source/Mount_Everest).{{citation needed|date=March 2018}}
