Rocky Island Riverside

Rocky Island Riverside is a natural riverside attraction on the Murti River at Rocky Island village near Samsing in the Dooars region of Jalpaiguri District, West Bengal. Set in the foothills of the Eastern Himalayas, it is notable for its wide riverbed scattered with large boulders and pebbles, clear shallow water, and surrounding dense forests. It is a popular day picnic and nature sightseeing spot for visitors exploring Samsing and Suntalekhola.

Visitors can expect a wide, shallow stretch of the Murti River flowing over and around large rocks and boulders with forested hills in the background. The area is open and natural with no built structures, offering views of the river, sound of flowing water, and forest surroundings. Visitors can walk on rocks near the water, wade in shallow sections, take photographs, and enjoy picnics on the riverbank. Small local food stalls and homestays are available in the nearby village.
