What you Seek , is Seeking you.. This trip was undertaken with an intent to do something special for our dog ( winter). One can imagine that not many places can create a welcome and safe environment for your pet. Jungle Lore , Birding Lodge @ pangot close to Nainital was just the place that left our whole family wanting more. It’s a calm , beautiful and open place with all comforts and amazing staff. I found that the food , attention to detail , loving care and overall hospitality was just unbelievably good. Our son and dog could experience sitting in the clouds living actual rain with tons of greenery and overhanging mountains. Particularly our walks and treks in and around were just gorgeous. With very little traffic ( humans included) you could feel an inner calm like no other while walking these woods. If you are keen to wake up to amazing sounds of birds chirping , winds guzzling and a sweet cold Gush of wind on ur face then look no further. Lastly the whole team at this retreat has worked dedicatedly to ensure you feel warmth , love and joy. You are encouraged to move and walk , watch and play and loose urself to the environment which is breathtaking and just needs you to pause and reset. Happy Travels Winter , Nikko, Sukriti & Jeevan.

Had a fantastic stay. The place is beautiful and the staff so hospitable. They do not say no to anything. Very warm and helpful always. Irrespective of the category of room you stay in, service is the same and top notch. Bhuwan, the manager/caretaker is a Gem of a person, explains everything with a lot of heart and genuine concern is evident from all conversations with him. Found the prices also very reasonable and looking forward to coming here with family. The review cannot be complete without sharing something about the naturalist Mahesh. He has so much enthusiasm and love for his craft, that having him as a guide while birding makes you love the whole experience so much more. A must stay if you are into birding, or if you are looking for a quiet recluse in the lap of nature.

Excellent experience, great hospitality. This is my 2nd stay and doesn't feel old. The staff Tejpal ji, Vijay and the naturalists are so thoughtful, caring and pleasant. Gajvir ji naturalist made it memorable for us by helping us spot 50 species. Great food, great location.... expect birds in the front yard. Love this place and the serenity it affords.

I had a great time. Special mention for Mr Tejpal and Jagjeevan who made our stay extremely comfortable and informative. Pro Tip: Book Cheers Cottage if you don't want to climb many stairs. Pro Tip 2: Only take the regular route. If it's blocked due to any reason postpone your travel as the alternate route (Zoo Road) is very narrow and cars tend to get stuck. Unless you have a smallish car like an Alto which would pass easily. I took my Scorpio and while I managed without a scratch I wouldn't recommend the route to anyone.

We stayed there for a couple of days and it was a fine experience. It is a must place for birders. They have a good hide out beside a water hole. A number of birds and animals drink water and have bath and one can observe and take beautiful pictures from the hideout. The cottages are beautifully furnished and decorated in a quaint way. The service was very nice too. They provide good guide for birdwatching too. The only downside is the tariff, which is a bit on the higher side.

You should head towards Jungle Lore birding lodge if you are looking to spend some time amidst nature. We stayed at the Marten Cottage that has a small and cozy attic. Waking up to the sound of birds every morning was truly blissful. Bhuvan and his staff took very good care of us. They truly made us feel at home. The food was delicious and catered to the needs of the kids as well. Special mention goes to Bob, the friendly dog, who is well-trained to keep the monkeys at bay. Just one request - stock up the library with some children's books as well.

An amazing place for birdwatchers and nature lovers. The staff is extremely nice, attentive and helpful. The huts are wonderful and romantic. The food is excellent and freshly prepared for each meal. Tea, coffee, lassi... are available at any time and one can enjoy drinking them while sitting in the beautiful garden, watching birds, monkeys and other wildlife. The birdwatching guides are well trained, and our guide Gajvir was polite and a very good birdwatcher. We enjoyed every minute and would definitely come back.

I would like to thank very much Asian Adventures and especially Iqbal Ahmad for organising our family bird photography trip to Pangot in Uttarakhand in December 2022. In Pangot we spent great two weeks in Jungle Lore Birding Lodge. The weather was very nice and the food and service very good. We have seen and photographed a lot of beautiful birds around the lodge and in the surrounding areas. Asian Adventures gave us a very good bird guide Mahesh who was able to find even the most difficult birds and a very good driver Pawan who drove exceptionally well in this difficult mountain terrain. Tejpal as well as the other service man in Jungle Lore Birding Lodge cared about us as for the members of their own family. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. Once again thank you very much to all of you. For us it was an unforgettable experience.

I have stayed at Jungle lore birding lodge twice, once alone and second time with my parents. What a memorable trip it was ! Everything about Jungle lore birding lodge is unique and interesting. The lodge, set amidst the pine forest is away from the hustle and bustle of Nainital, making it a perfect quaint and peaceful getaway for city people. Their bird hides are excellent. The lodge is a must visit place in Pangot for bird photographers and nature lovers. We had a very comfortable stay at Jungle lore and the staff is extremely courteous and helpful. The food is simple and homely, yet delicious and flavoursome. Would love to go again !

Peaceful and Divine Experience at Mukteshwar Dham Temple Mukteshwar Dham Temple is a must-visit spiritual spot in Mukteshwar and is considered to be one of the Shaktipeeths, which makes it even more sacred. Dedicated to Lord Shiva, the temple has a strong spiritual aura that instantly fills you with peace and positivity. To reach the temple, you need to climb a series of stairs from the main road, and the short ascent feels refreshing amidst the natural surroundings. Once at the top, the atmosphere is serene and divine. Apart from its religious significance, the temple offers breathtaking panoramic views of the Himalayas – truly mesmerizing and soul-soothing.

Ancient and tranquil temple dedicated to Lord Shiva with stunning Himalayan views. A peaceful spiritual experience reached by a scenic uphill climb. Highly recommended for devotees and nature lovers

“Mukteshwar Dham is one of the most peaceful and divine temples I have ever visited. Dedicated to Lord Shiva, the temple is situated on a hilltop and offers breathtaking views of the Himalayas. The atmosphere here is calm, spiritual and full of positive energy. The temple is clean, well-maintained and perfect for meditation and prayers. Early morning darshan is especially blissful. A must-visit place in Mukteshwar for devotees as well as nature lovers.”

Great holy temple of Lord Shiva. Around 350 yrs old. We need to ascend some 136 steps but the temple and view from top is worth it. Chauli ki jaali too is near by to this place.

A serene temple with breathtaking views—but be prepared for a bit of a hike! Mukteshwar Dham Temple is truly a peaceful and spiritually uplifting place, perched right at the top of Mukteshwar. The view from up there is absolutely stunning—calm, serene, and perfect for some quiet reflection. The temple itself has a divine energy, and even though it can get a bit crowded, the overall experience is still incredibly soothing. That said, one thing to be aware of is the parking situation. Cops won’t allow you to drive all the way up to avoid traffic jams, so you’ll have to park about 1.5 km before the temple. From there, you have two choices: either enjoy a moderately steep uphill walk or hop on a scooter offered by local riders, which usually costs ₹50–₹100 for the ride to the top. The walk can be a bit of a challenge, especially for elderly people or those not used to walking uphill, so plan accordingly. Despite this small inconvenience, the view and the temple make it absolutely worth the effort.

Holi place in Nainital district of Uttarakhand about 57 kilometers drive from Nainital city. Temple of Mukeshwar Mahadev. Excellent view of snow peaks from Mukteshwar. Many luxury hotels are available there. There was apple orchards on the way. Temple is situated at the top of Mukteshwar.

If possible, AVOID going to the temple on weekends, especially during peak season. The cab-wallahs will not tell you that the cabs will be stopped about 2 kms before the temple, and then you will either have to walk all the way through a nightmarish traffic or hire a two-wheeler to cover that distance. You will end up paying 2500/- to the cab-wallah (from Kasiyalekh) and then either walk 2 kms (one way) to the temple or pay another 200/- to the two-wheeler-wallah (for one person) for riding one way. So, if you are a group of 4, you will have to shell out another 1600/- if you choose to take the two-wheeler ride for all, both ways. The locals exploit the situation, but the administration is not bothered. If you choose to go in a self driven vehicle, be prepared to get mad. If you are only 2 in a group, a better way would be to hire a two-wheeler to the temple from Kasiyalekh instead of going there in a four- wheeler. But, we were told that on weekdays the situation is not so bad. We visited this place on Saturday, 21 June 2025. I tried to find some peace, serenity, and calmness at the temple but failed miserably. The covered concrete steps to the temple are a recent construction (although it has definitely ruined the beauty of the natural surroundings of the temple). Before, it used to be a hike to the temple through the jungle around.

Breathtaking Views at Chauli ki Jali, Mukteshwar! Chauli ki Jali is one of the most stunning viewpoints in Mukteshwar. Perched on a cliffside near the Mukteshwar Temple, it offers spectacular panoramic views of the Himalayan ranges and deep valleys below. The experience of standing at the edge and watching the vast landscapes is absolutely thrilling and unforgettable. The place is also known for its mythological and historical significance, which adds to its charm. It’s a great spot for nature lovers, photographers, and adventure seekers, and the unique rock formations make it even more fascinating. Whether you go for the mesmerizing sunrise/sunset views or just to soak in the natural beauty, Chauli ki Jali is a place you simply cannot miss while visiting Mukteshwar.

Chauli Ki Jali, located behind the Mukteshwar Temple in Uttarakhand, is one of the most beautiful and adventurous viewpoints in the region. Perched at an altitude of about 2,500 meters, it offers breathtaking views of the Himalayan ranges and the deep valleys below. The site is famous for its naturally formed rock wall with holes (“Jali” means net or lattice), which adds a unique charm to the spot. According to local legends, Goddess Kali fought a demon here, and the marks on the rocks are believed to be from that battle. It’s also a popular destination for adventure lovers who enjoy rock climbing and rappelling. The combination of spiritual significance, natural beauty, and thrilling experiences makes Chauli Ki Jali a must-visit spot in Mukteshwar.

Near mukteswar kmvn zero point and mukteswar dham, a unique place to feel on top of world in the middle of clouds

It's scenic and I think the only most visited place and attraction in Mukhteshwar, overcrowded no parking at all in season. Long traffic for cars.

A place near mukteshwar dhamtemple with full of natural beauty

If you already went to places like waichin valley, Tosh, munsyari, ladakh etc. this one may not impress you. However, sunset from the cliff is impressive and now the zipline is also added (fare 500 pp). Walking distance (5 minutes) from Mukteshwar mahadev mandir.

This place is situated just beside the Mukteshwar Dham Temple. There is walkway just beside the entry of the temple that leads you to this place. On the entry to the walkway, you have small open shops and eateries where you can munch on Samosa, Kachori, Fruit Chat, Rajma Chawal, Dal Chawal and much more. You need to walk around 500 mts before you reach this place and once you reach there are more eateries. There are even two ziplines if you are someone who loves thrill. The place is now heavily commercialized and that's my first complain with this scenic place. Chauli ki Jhali is essentially a mountain cliff which gives you breath-taking views of Himalayas and there is no wonder this place is so popular but due to heavy commercialization the place is very dirty and too crowded. You can spend good 15-20 mins here taking back the mesmerizing views the place has to offer. Also dno't forget to click some pics on the first cliff just when you enter the area. That spot is a good one. Totally recommened and more so in off season.

Has a beautiful view of the Himalaya. On a clear day you would be able to see a almost a 360 degree view of the valley and range. Very close to the Chauli ki jali and Mukteshwara Dham Temple. Go there check out the view and just relax and soak in the beauty with a cup of warm coffee. I just wish we were there on a day with clear weather.

The area around this place has lot of attraction. The first is mukteshvar mahadev temple. It is at a height of 8200 feet. It's a very old and famous temple and visited by thousands of people. Next to it is chauli ki jaali which has a straight fall of 1000 ft. You can enjoy rope diving here.

Complete with scenic views of the sunrise across the Himalayas, the Mukteshwar Inspection Bungalow near the temple offers accommodation for a serene holiday.

A small treak from chauli ki jali leads you to pwd inspection house and it’s beautiful since the local people had tried to keep it clean. There is also an public convenience (sulabh restrooms) available (payments to be done ) they water is scarce so most of time no waters in restrooms. Must watch for the seven peaks watch.

Heritage Hotel with amazing views. The bungalow is old fashioned which was once a heritage site. Now it is run by KMVN as a hotel. The luxury rooms are well kept and the staff is courteous. Breakfast and Dinner are included in room tariff. The food is delicious and home-style. There is a nice lawn/garden. The view is amazing. Mornings are very special very bird chirping and the scenic beauty of sunrise hitting the top of snow bounded mountains. Just grab a cup of tea and enjoy a nature.

This is a must visit attraction of Mukteshwar which shouldn't be missed . The history of this banglow is directly related to Jim Corbett himself . And one can stay in the property too having prior booking . The Himalayan peaks are very clearly visible from here till Nepal . Such beauty isn't visible from Any point . The height of this place is around 7500 feet . Nanda devi peaks and almora are in straight line of sight . The details of all the visible peaks are also mentioned from the view point which is very educative for young kids .

The inspection bungalow is famous for its view of the mountain ranges. It is one of the places to visit for the view of mountain ranges and if you are lucky with the weather (no cloudy day) then you can cherish the amazing view of Trishul, Nanda ghunti, and even panchahuli peaks. So this place has no parking lot as such you have to park your vehicle outside the gate of the bungalow on the road itself. Then you can enter the bungalow and reach towards the open ground with wooden sitting benches and a table. And the viewpoint from where you can click the photographs and cherish the majestic view of peaks. The garden is well maintained and planted with so many beautiful Dahlia and gladiolus flowers. So this place also provides or serves you as a guest house, if you want to stay there you can book rooms from the kmvn website. And if you are not staying here then you can also come to this place just to admire the view with a cup of chai and coffee and pakoras. Yes, they also have a little canteen so they serve as per their menu. We enjoyed our view with chai and pakoras do visit this place and admire the majestic view.

Patal Bhuvaneshwar is a hidden pilgrimage centre, seepded in mystery and mythology, near Gangolihat, on the way to Berinag, at a distance of 35 kms. from Pithoragarh. This shrine is dedicated to Lord Shiva. The way to the cave temple is through a long, narrow tunnel. The cave is 160 m long and 90 feet deep from the point of entrance.

An amazing experience and beautiful cave with unbelievable story and structure I just loved this place and there you feel very good environment, i can feel such different energy and power once in this place. It’s a cave with Lord Shiva story all around and temple to worship

Patal Bhuvaneshwar is an absolutely mesmerizing place that everyone should visit at least once in their lifetime. Hidden deep within the mountains of Kumaon, this ancient limestone cave temple is filled with natural beauty, spiritual energy, and incredible legends from Hindu mythology. As you walk through the cave, you can see naturally formed structures said to represent Lord Shiva, Sheshnag, and various deities - it truly feels like stepping into another world. The atmosphere is peaceful, the locals are very welcoming, and the surroundings are breathtakingly scenic. A perfect mix of devotion, mystery, and nature - highly recommended for anyone visiting Uttarakhand!

Patal Bhuvaneshwar is a fascinating limestone cave temple located in the Pithoragarh district of Uttarakhand, India. Here's what makes it significant: Location: It's situated in Bhubneshwar village, about 14 kilometers away from Gangolihat, at an altitude of 1,350 meters (4,429 feet). Description: * This isn't just one cave, but rather a series of interconnected caves. * The main cave is about 160 meters long and descends 90 feet from its entrance. * Inside, you'll find stunning natural formations of stalactites and stalagmites that have, over time, taken the shapes of various Hindu deities and mythological figures. These include representations of Lord Shiva, Ganesha, Sheshnag (the divine serpent), and even what is believed to be the severed head of Ganesha. * The cave is electrically illuminated, allowing visitors to witness these intricate formations. Mythological and Historical Significance: * Ancient Mentions: Patal Bhuvaneshwar finds mention in the ancient Hindu scripture, the Skanda Purana, specifically in the Manas Khand. * Discovery: Legend has it that the cave was first discovered in the Treta Yuga by King Rituparna of the Surya dynasty. It is believed that he was guided through the cave by Sheshnag himself. * Rediscovery: In the Kali Yuga (the present epoch), the great sage Adi Shankaracharya is said to have rediscovered this cave in 1191 AD, establishing its modern pilgrimage history. * Abode of Deities: It's a strong belief that this cave is the abode of 33 crore (33 types, as "koti" in this context means type) Hindu gods and goddesses. * Connection to Char Dham: Many believe that a pilgrimage to Patal Bhuvaneshwar is as sacred as visiting the Char Dham (the four major pilgrimage sites) of Uttarakhand. * Passage of the Pandavas: Some legends suggest that the Pandavas, the heroes of the Mahabharata, meditated here during their final journey to the Himalayas. * Symbolic Entrances: The cave is said to have four entrances: Randwar (path to war), Paapdwar (door of sin), Dharamdwar (door of righteousness), and Mokshadwar (door of salvation). Currently, only Dharamdwar and Mokshadwar are open. It is believed that Paapdwar closed after the death of Ravana and Randwar closed after the Mahabharata war. * Link to Mount Kailash: There's a belief that Patal Bhuvaneshwar is connected to Mount Kailash through an underground passage. Visiting Patal Bhuvaneshwar: * The journey inside the cave involves descending about 82 steps and navigating narrow, sometimes wet passages, often with the help of iron chains for support. * The atmosphere inside is typically dimly lit and solemn, adding to the mystical experience. * Priests from the Bhandari family have been performing religious rites here since the time of Adi Shankaracharya. * The cave timings are generally from 8 am to 6 pm during summer and 9 am to 5 pm during winter, but it's always good to confirm locally. * Entry into the cave is often in batches of 20-30 people. In essence, Patal Bhuvaneshwar is more than just a cave; it's a place steeped in mythology and spirituality, offering a unique and somewhat adventurous pilgrimage experience.

Most Powerful & Heritage Temple Patal Bhuvaneshwar Cave , This Temple Pithoragarh District & Almora 115 Km Distance , (( Wone Car & Taxi Minimum 5.30 hrs Travel Time . )) (( I Am Not Suggest For BIKE Ride Maximum 6.30 to 7 hours and Road is Not Good ))..

A thrilling experience. After getting down from the vehicle, it's 1.5 KM walking distance through a mountain path. For 3 person, ticket charged around 290/-. But when I came to the entry of the downward stairs at this cave, I refused to enter and returned back. But later when I saw that all men, women and even 7 to 10 years kids were entering, then I entered. After climbing down 90 feet of stairs, there was uneven land with misc mythology. Main thing is to hold the chains tightly, which passes from both sides, it will save from any kind of fallen. At the time of climbing up, it's the same funda - hold the chains and move calmly, don't hurry.

It was out of the world experience to enter into cave like this..lots of amazing figures made in cave ,4 dhaam ,ganesh ji dhad,and many more ,one who loves spirituality and wants to explore ,this is best place for all of them.

Another must visit temple for any devout hindu visiting Ranikhet & it has a huge reverence. Visit, seek a manokamna & upon realisation of your wish revisit and tie a temple bell on the temple premises. It's very nice!!

The architecture isn't spectacular, but it's antiquity dates back 700 years according to local lore. The current structure, of course, is more recent in origin and dates to the last century. It's quaintness lies in its thousands of bells, big and small, along the walls of the temples and inside, donated by grateful worshippers. People come here to get their new vehicles blessed!

The experience was wonderful! The place has an incredible sense of peace and tranquility. Although this temple is often associated with Ranikhet, it’s actually located quite far from there — in a serene, isolated spot right beside the Army Jat Regiment check post. Just 3–4 km from the temple, you can also explore a beautiful garden in choubatia, which is said to be the second largest of its kind in Asia.

While the architecture of Jhula Devi Temple may not be grand or ornate, its antiquity and spiritual significance make it one of Ranikhet’s most cherished landmarks.

What truly makes this temple special are the thousands of brass bells — big and small — adorning its walls and ceilings.

Ranikhet Golf Course Ground is a peaceful and soothing escape nestled in the hills of Uttarakhand. Surrounded by pine forests and stunning Himalayan views, it offers a calm, refreshing atmosphere perfect for a quiet walk or just soaking in nature. A wonderful experience — serene, scenic, and truly worth visiting at least once.

The Golf Course in Ranikhet is a peaceful retreat surrounded by lush greenery and panoramic views. Walking through the open expanse, I was instantly reminded of the beauty of Pahalgam Valley . It's a perfect place to relax, take in nature, and enjoy the quiet charm of the Himalayas. A must-visit if you're in Ranikhet!

A superb golf course located in Ranikhet Valley. It is around 5 kms away from the main town on the Ranikhet Kausani road. You can explore the beautiful lush green fields and click photos. It's must visit place when you visit Ranikhet. Must check opening timings with the locals before visiting. Ample parking space is available along the road.

What a weather and view, lovely; green all around the grass but it's not for the general public later we come to know. It's for army personnel only.

So Beautiful palace but timing is not good

Looking like 😲 wow very beautiful place if you are coming to Ranikhet go there take your food snacks and spend your quality time there

Marvelous place for those who are in search of peace and silence. This place is hardly 3 kms from main Ranikhet. This place is surrounded by Pine trees which makes them a very good spot for photography. If you want to spend some quality and peaceful time then do visit this place.

Binsar Zero Point is the highest point of the Binsar Wildlife, from where one can savour a 360-degree view of the Himalayan beauties namely Kedarnath, Shivling, Trishul and the group of Nanda Devi peaks. Entire trail is beautiful, many birds can see from there. 2 km trail gives you serenity. If you stay in Binsar, must do this trail at morning.

A beautiful point giving a valley view along with mountains all around. If it’s cloudy you will literally feel like walking on the clouds and see them below your eyeline. Majestic place to say the least !

Binsar is a beautiful area about 30km from Almora with an average height of 2412 metres. It is made of a series of ridges and gorges. Binsar used to be summer capital of Chand kings. It was later on established as a sanctuary for the conservation and protection of Oak forests. It has over 200 species of bird. However, when we visited Binsar in February last year, we did not have much luck with seeing these birds, possibly because in winters they had migrated elsewhere.

Ticket price - 250 per car. 200 per person. The fees goes to the forest department while the road is maintained by pwd. As on December 2024, the 10km road to the trek start point is in horrible condition and sedans and low ground clearance vehicles should avoid it. There are half foot craters with mud and I saw cars with broken bumpers. 200mm ground clearance is recommended minimum. The trek itself took around 20 mins one way and it easy . Carry water as there is no water source on the way. The view from here on a clear day is amazing with all peaks visible.

Beautiful trek to the breathtaking view. Jungle feels too quiet even after so many calls from the birds. Trek is 2 kms but easy level. Must visit place.

Avoid visiting this place or taking hotel at the top of zero point. The road are such pathetic you will end up telling why did we choose this place. Bikers who love off-roading will definitely love this place but make sure you have a good riding skills. They have ticket of rupees 200per head and Rs250 of car. And there is nothing much at Zero point. The road to zero point is definitely not to travel after 3PM(much recommended) because travelling during dark is very very risky with no light no fencing at the sides and no proper roads might put life in danger.

Absolutely over rated. It's a good hike and view but you can get it anywhere in and around Binsar. No need to make an effort to do this trail. If you are there it's okay to trek but then there are so many trails everywhere. In fact staying inside the forest is also not necessary. The views are better from Dinapani or Kasardevi.

We went there in a group of 6 persons on 23.03.25 for meditation. The whole temple complex is well maintained, beautiful, full of flora & fauna. It's neatness is amazing. The whole complex is surrouded by enchanting valley. One can come here and stay at nearby hotel by Govt.. Spiritual energy is flowing everywhere

Nestled amidst the serene hills of Ranikhet, Haidakhan Vishwamahadham Temple is one of the most peaceful and spiritually uplifting places to visit in Uttarakhand. Surrounded by lush greenery and overlooking the majestic Trishul and Nanda Devi ranges, this temple is not just a place of worship but a sanctuary of calmness and spiritual energy.

Its a very peaceful Shiv temple , having positive spiritual vibes with a fantastic view point to see scenic Himalayan snow peaks

A must visit place in Ranikhet if you are going to the cave do make sure you visit the temple, This tenple is closed for ११ to १२ pm reat it's great view

You will feel the spirituality. They work hard to keep it clean . Landscape on the way is really soothing and less explored. Road is narrow but manageable. You may get interacted with foreigners. People's from whole world comes here . You can do pooja and meditation. Worth to visit once .. Will try to visit again if Haidakhan Baba call me 🙏🌼..... Jai hedakhan Baba ki 🙏🙏

A peaceful experience awaits anyone who wishes to visit Baba Haidakhan Temple in Ranikhet. It's quaint, clean and generally not busy. Huge campus which is well laid out and has beautiful statues of Bhagwan Shi Hanuman & Nandi. On a clear day you would be delighted with the views of the snow peaks from there. It's the trishul peaks of Nanda Parbat. There's also charitable shop on premises which has a good selection of kurtas & brass items. Pricing is decent.

Best place for peace and serenity, free from everyday hustle bustle a quiet place to find yourself . Loved it .

A quiet and peaceful place with beautiful mountain views. Entry is free, and you can spend 1–2 hours here. Quite high parking fee required for four-wheelers, but space is limited. I would recommend it for a one-time visit if you're in Kausani and got spare time.

What a great place. I will suggest you all visit this place in morning then you will able to see clear view of himalayas and its so beautiful. Very peaceful place. The ashram is located at a convenient distance of a kilometre from the Kausani bus stand. Gandhiji spent a number of days here in 1929 and a lot of people come to this place following in his footsteps. Local legend proudly suggests that Gandhiji was so besotted by the natural beauty of the place that he exclaimed that this was truly the Switzerland of India. He is believed to have been working on his theory of Anasakti Yoga, which preaches the belief in the philosophy of non-attachment to the material world. There is a small prayer room in the ashram, where prayers are held every morning and evening. Much like in the rest of the Kumaon region, sublime views of the Himalayas are abundant and omnipresent. The quietude and serenity of the spot is disturbed by little else and heightened by the locally popular reading library. The ashram also features a small archive-like museum that showcases photographs of Mahatma Gandhi’s stay here along with other paraphernalia associated with him. There is also a study and research centre in the ashram, which work towards taking Gandhiji’s philosophies forward. For those looking for an immersive experience, there are a small number of rooms available that can be rented.

It's a great and peaceful place. You may stay here as well. They have cottages and rooms to stay and food on very reasonable prices.

The place is very serene & tranquil with a lot of history attached to it. It is at this very place that Kausani came to be fondly know as the mini Switzerland of India.

In 1929, Gandhiji came to Kausani for two days but he liked the place so much that he stayed here for 14 days and completed the book Anashakti Yoga. Because of this book, this guest house was named Anashakti Ashram. This place is very beautiful and one can get a panoramic view of the Himalayas from here. Kausani is a small village but a very peaceful place.

Serene place where Gandhi ji once stayed....there's a small museum and meditation place. Views of surrounding hills and valleys mesmerizing...

If in kausani I would suggest spending few minutes here.

Rudradhari Waterfall in Kausani is a stunning natural spot, perfect for trekking and adventure lovers. Surrounded by lush green hills and ancient caves, the easy-to-moderate trek to the falls offers breathtaking views and a peaceful escape into nature. Ideal for those seeking a short, thrilling getaway amidst the beauty of the Himalayas.

Rudhradhari temple and waterfall, both are exceptional places. I went during monsoon which made the trek lush green and waterfall full of flow. Had a bath, visited temple, with no rush at the place. Vibe of this place is unbeatable if you're looking for a spiritual or a peaceful experience.

Beautiful drive through the Kumaoni countryside from Kausani and then a 1.5km walk alongside creek through the forest to falls (underwhelming) and temple. Quiet, peaceful and there are food places at the start of the walk.

From my experience the best time to visit the Rudradhari Falls would be during the monsoon or later May. There is a beautiful trek of about 1.5KM. The waterfall has a Shiv Temple adjacent to it. There are many Eateries before the trek but none on the way. The water is clean and cold. Must visit! Neil's Tip:DO NOT VISIT DURING SUMMERS

Hidden waterfall with good story to hear from locals. Peaceful place with a small trek to reach.

This temple is inside a cave deep in the forest. The hike to the temple is a short yet lovely one. Especially if you start very early in the morning. I had a great time hopping boulders, crossing streams, picking up Rhododendron flowers and clicking ton of pics. A must do hike if in Kausani, but not for the seniors who may have joint pain or are not used to hiking.

Was here during heavy rains and the trek seemed not so easy. We hired a guide who charged us 300 after a little bargaining. But the guide was worth it and he also helped with our 2 year old kid. We had to cross 6 streams out of which 2 were knee deep as the river was little flooded. It was worth the visit once we reached the waterfall which also had a heavy flow. We visited during peak monsoon and you would need to check for leech everytime you cross the stream. Definately the trek was worth it once you reach the temple. Please note there is no Jio or Airtel network at this place.

Must visit places when you are in kaunsani. Temples are very old and the power you will feel is amazing. The parvati statue inside the main shrine is amazing. 26 avatars of parvati are carved on sides. The lake is good and you can go boating there.

The temples are well-preserved and offer a glimpse into the rich cultural and religious history of the region. The priests are warm and welcoming, adding to the spiritual charm of the place. The nearby river and lush greenery further enhance the tranquil experience. A must-visit for anyone looking to connect with nature and spirituality. Highly recommended!

Baijnath is very famous for the ancient temples and historical importance. The temple is located on the banks of the beautiful Gomti River, in the Bageshwar district (Kumaon region), Uttarakhand. The temple is dedicated to the Lord Vaidyanatha (Lord Shiva as the Lord of physicians). It is said that (euttaranchal.com) the temple was built by the Kumaon Katyuri King in around 1150 A.D. This is a temple complex with the idols of Shiva, Ganesh, Parvati, Chandika, Kuber, Surya and Brahma. The enchanting view of the Himalayan peaks is great seen from this place, particularly the Sun-rise and Sun-set reflections on the mountain. We have visited this place in the month of October with a clear sky all the time. It’s a must visit place

Shridhar Baijnath Group of Temples – Serene Heritage by the Riverside If you're traveling from Kausani towards Munsiyari, the Shridhar Baijnath Group of Temples makes for a perfect cultural and spiritual stopover. Located just about 16 km from Kausani in the peaceful town of Baijnath, this ancient temple complex sits beautifully along the banks of the Gomti River. It's not just another temple visit — it's a moment of connection with Uttarakhand’s rich history and timeless architecture. Dating back to the 12th century, the temples are known for their exquisite stone carvings and tranquil setting. There's a calmness in the air, and the view of the surrounding hills adds to the peaceful experience. It’s a great place to stretch your legs, soak in the heritage, and click some memorable photos. The temples are dedicated primarily to Lord Shiva (Baijnath), and the complex features beautiful stone-carved shrines and idols that reflect the rich architectural heritage of the Katyuri dynasty. It's not very crowded, making it a perfect place to sit, reflect, and connect with nature and history. This stop also fits naturally into the route to Munsiyari via Bageshwar, Chaukori, and Birthi Falls. It adds both spiritual value and a refreshing break during the long road journey. You don't need to spend hours here — even a 30-45 minute pause is enough to admire its beauty. This site is not just a religious stop but a cultural gem worth visiting for its peaceful aura, beautiful setting, and ancient artistry. Highly recommended for anyone interested in history, culture, heritage, serenity and a slice of Uttarakhand’s spiritual past or just some quiet time amid nature.

Temples or group of temples said to be made by pandavas are on unique place and The Baijnath Temple is a famous Hindu temple dedicated to Lord Shiva and is located in Baijnath town in the Kangra district of Himachal Pradesh, India. It is one of the most important pilgrimage sites in the state and is known for its unique architecture and historical significance.Built in the Nagara style of North Indian temple architectureThe temple is adorned with intricate carvings of deities, floral patterns, and mythological scenes

The temples are ancient and worth visiting. Located on a promontory jutting over a bend of the Gomti river, the temples beauty has been enhanced by damming the river and creation of a lake. Sadly the landscaping around the lake is in poor taste, with ugly architecture and gaudy pedal boats, totally out of sync with the ancient architecture of the temples. Encroachments around the temple overshadow the temples themselves. This place holds a lot of promise, as a spiritual destination, as a recreational zone and as a birdwatching nature reserve. A lot of effort is required to make this a tourist destination. At the moment, Baijnath, with its ugly, poorly constructed buildings has no town planning and nil building regulations. It's a surprise anyone would wish to come here, or having come unwittingly, stay for long.

Har har mahadev. A heritage pilgrim sight of our Sanaatan dharm. Mahadev and Parvati maa temple built here around 9-12th century. The construction is remarkable. Baijnath Barrage is situated next to it . A small lake is made where dishes and snakes can be sighted. Very postive aura ina and around temple. The parking space is huge. 50/- for car. Situated on main road.

Had a small treck to visit this mahadev temple in jungle but awesome views,water crossings,waterfall. No crowd and a must visit place.peacefull

You can get to the nearest of this place by car or a taxi, after that you have to take a guide who will guide you through the one and half kilometre Trek which will finally lead you to the rudradhari waterfall and the temple

Very beautiful place. We can reach here after 2 km trekking. Very natural way. A small water fall and shivji temple here. A local advisable because forest rout.

Its a 3 km easy trek from road to the temple. If you are visiting it in monsoons beware of leeches as the trek goes inside the mixed temperate forest. It's a very old cave temple located along the river Kosi. A beautiful waterfall can also be seen next to the temple. A worth visiting place for nature lovers, trekkers and religious souls if nearby Kosani.

Rudhradhari Mahadev Temple is an amazing place to visit , you can experience the warm vibe and picturesque beauty of nature...

Remarkable Trek to Rudradhari Mahadev Temple through an intense forest Rudradhari Waterfall with Mahadev temple Cave has a trek route of 2 KM inside thickly infested forest with hilly path and over the water stream of Rudradhari waterfall which is 10km away from Kausani Town. There is a small but beautiful temple inside the cave which is supposedly 2000 years old. This place is also known as meditation place of Kaushik Muni. I felt extreme peace after reaching the temple and waterfall. There is another place to visit called Pinnath temple. Pinnath temple is situated at the hill top of 2750m height (approx 9000ft) and can be started its 5KM treking from the starting point of Rudradhari Waterfall trek. This sacred HINDU shrine is dedicated to Bhairon and worshiped by the locals. Apart from the temple, scenic beauty of Pinnath Top is also spectacular.

A small but beautiful trek in kausani.

Very beautiful mountain

The Trishul Peak is one of the most prominent and awe-inspiring sights visible from the Almora district. Rising high above the surrounding ranges, this three-pronged massif resembles the divine trident (Trishul) of Lord Shiva — a sight that feels both sacred and spectacular. During sunrises and sunsets, the peaks glow in shades of gold, crimson, and violet, standing out sharply against the Himalayan sky. It’s a view that stays with you long after you’ve left the hills. 🌄✨ At 7,120 meters, Trishul I is the highest summit among the three, though together they form the mighty Trishul massif — a landmark that defines the skyline of Almora, Ranikhet, and beyond. If you’re visiting Uttarakhand, take a quiet moment to watch the Trishul peaks at dawn or dusk — it’s not just a view, it’s a spiritual experience in motion. 🙏

Absolutely stunning glacier peak.....the whole Himalayan range of mountains including Nandadevi Nandakot etc along with Trishul parbat looks mind-blowing.

I saw mighty Thrishul mountain in my Roopkund Trek!! This is the highest peak that I seen till that trek and that's first time experience of Himalayas is all bound to its beautiful three peaks

Mesmerizing view of trishul parbat . Amazing trek to tilbudi top.

Mountain you see like a Trishul shape from Nainital, Ranikhet, Almora, Bageshwar, Kausani and nearby places.. Pictures from Nainital

The most prominent peak seen from Almora district. The peak towers above rest and the three trident shaped peaks are very distinguishably visible specially during sunsets and sunrises. At 7120m Trishul 1 is the highest summit not the massif

Located about 3 km from Rudraprayag, perched just above the Alaknanda River, the temple lies within a rocky cave, accessible via a flight of steps carved into the hillside  “Koteshwar” means “Lord of Crores,” referencing the millions of naturally formed Shivlingas embedded in the cave walls . Elevation: ~885 m, offering breathtaking views of the river cutting through the Himalayan cliffs

Well well well it’s my Nani’s gaw(home) Koteshwar has been a part of my life since my childhood, I love visiting Koteshwar whenever I go to rudraprayag, you’ll feel peace, love , warmth & close to god .🩷🩷🩷🩷

Very nice temple. The cave with linga is very beautiful. Do visit this if you are passing by Rudraprayag, its worth the short climb.

Koteshwar Temple, located in the picturesque landscapes of Uttarakhand, is a serene sanctuary offering a peaceful spiritual retreat. Nestled on the banks of the Alaknanda River, this temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva and is steeped in mythological significance. The cave-like architecture, coupled with the rhythmic sound of flowing water. The temple's historical and cultural significance makes it a must-visit for those exploring the spiritual heritage of Uttarakhand. You can also bathe in this ghat. There is a 5 min walk to reach the main temple. Its a must visit place.

Koteshwar Mahadev temple is located on the banks of Alaknanda river in a Cave where Lord Shiva hid himself from Bhasmasura and meditated in this cave on his way to Kedarnath

I loved this place. Just woww. You will find inner peace at koteshwar Mahadev 🙏

One of the best SHIVA mandirs blessed to have the dharshan and touched the SPATIK linga, Swayamboo. in one word I AM BLESSED and Shiv the Bholenath had ordered me to visit him to be blessed and LUCKY to have the comfortable leisure Dharshan. Initially i thought the Shivji in Saligram but wonder struck me when i had seen THE LORD in SPATIK. Totally blessed to see a 5000 years old SHIVA.

Easy nice trek of one day with spectacular views , beware of guides , they charge too much , only if you are well off then take guide else go in group and if any one stops like forest guard try to please him nicely. He may take 50-100 rs for going up or try to take deposit if you carrying plastic items , kindly dont litter in bugyals , just go enjoy the view , spend time and carry all your garbage with you back.

Gurson Bugyal is a peaceful alpine meadow near Auli, offering breathtaking views of Nanda Devi, Trishul, and Dron Parvat peaks. 🌄 The trek is short, scenic, and surrounded by oak and deodar forests, making it perfect for nature lovers and beginners. 🌿❄️ Highly Recommended !!

Beautiful surrounding and mountains.The Auli to Gorson Bugyal trek is an easy trek. We use chair car and then after we ride on tatu. Chair car's experience is amazing.There is an artificial lake and van devi tempal on the way.360 degree view is mesmerizing 😍.From Gorson Bugyal, you can see several prominent Himalayan peaks, including Nanda Devi, Dronagiri, and Kamet, Trishul, Mana Parvat, Hathi Parvat, and Ghora Parvat.

Awesome place to visit, very beautiful. One can take a chair car ropeway. This can be reached from stairs that start at the parking spot. The ropeway will drop at tower 10. Pay 50INR entry fee at forest dept stop & then hike for 45min to reach the bugyal. I visited on 18 Nov'24.

Excellent Trek and awesome 360degree view of Himalayan peak

Stunning landscape. Nanda devi in sight. Amazing area! Himalayan ranges in plain sight at close distance!

Amazing scenic place. Surrounded by lush green forests, good snowfall. Great for Treks, Skiing and enjoying a good maggi! Truly captures the beauty of Himalayas. Local horses are available after Auli Chair lift for a ride uphill if you don't want to walk.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 — Mesmerizing Shree Tungnath Trek in October Trekking to Shree Tungnath Temple in October was an unforgettable experience! The weather was cool and pleasant, with clear skies offering breathtaking views of the snow-capped Chaukhamba and Kedarnath peaks. The trail was covered with vibrant autumn colors, making every step feel magical. The trek is moderate — not too difficult, but you’ll need good stamina, especially for the last steep climb towards the temple. Once you reach the top, the serenity and divine energy of Tungnath, the highest Shiva temple in the world, make it all worth it. If you start early morning, you can even trek further to Chandrashila Peak for an incredible sunrise view. October is the perfect month — fewer crowds, clear views, and pleasant weather. Highly recommended for spiritual seekers and mountain lovers alike! 🏔️🙏

Shri Tungnath Temple, the highest Shiva temple in the world, is an incredibly peaceful and spiritual destination. ​The main journey involves a challenging but rewarding 4 km uphill trek to Tungnath, which typically takes about 4 hours to climb. For those visiting both Tungnath and Chandrashila Peak and returning to the starting point, the total round trip time is approximately 8 hours. ​Trekking Details: ​Trekking Poles: Sticks for support are highly recommended and are readily available for rent at the starting point of the trek. ​Best Time to Visit: October is the ideal month for a visit, offering the most favorable weather conditions. ​Beyond Tungnath: ​For the adventurous traveler, the Chandrashila Peak offers another wonderful trek, requiring an additional 1 km climb from Tungnath for truly spectacular views.

Tungnath Temple is an absolutely divine and breathtaking place — truly a gem in the Himalayas! 🙏 It’s the highest Shiva temple in the world and surrounded by stunning mountain views that leave you speechless. The trek to the temple is moderate and filled with mesmerizing scenery — snow-capped peaks, meadows, and clouds floating right beside you. The peaceful energy at the top and the view of the Himalayas from there make it a once-in-a-lifetime experience 🌄. A must-visit for both devotees and nature lovers!

Om Namah Parvati Patye Har Har Mahadev! Tungnath is the highest Shiva temple in the world, located at an altitude of 3,680 meters (12,073 ft) in the Garhwal Himalayas. The best time to visit is between September to November, when the temple doors are open for devotees. If you’re planning a visit, I highly recommend starting your trek early, around 3 to 3:30 AM. Trekking in the dark might sound tough, but the trail is well-maintained and much easier when it’s cool and quiet. Reaching the temple before it opens is a truly peaceful and spiritual experience. For those chasing sunrise magic, don’t miss the Chandrashila Peak trek, which is about 2 km from Tungnath. The views from up there — sunrise lighting up the snow peaks, and clouds swirling below you — are unforgettable. Take photos, make time-lapse videos, but don’t forget to carry warm clothes and shoes with good grip. There are a few local shops near the temple selling water, tea, and snacks. Yes, the prices are a bit higher — but considering the effort it takes to stock supplies at this altitude, it’s totally fair and appreciated. Photos and videos can never fully capture the beauty and peace of this place — it's something you have to feel with your own eyes and soul.

Peaceful and Divine Experience at Tungnath Temple Tungnath Temple is truly a heavenly place! The trek to reach it is short but steep, surrounded by breathtaking mountain views and fresh air. The silence, the sound of wind, and the divine aura of Lord Shiva make the entire journey worth it. Once you reach the temple, the feeling is beyond words — peaceful, pure, and deeply spiritual. The view from the top, especially during sunrise or sunset, is unforgettable. The route is clean, and small tea stalls along the way help you recharge. Overall, it’s a perfect blend of adventure and spirituality — a must-visit for every nature and Shiva devotee.

Tungnath Temple is the world's highest Shiva temple, located in the Garhwal Himalayas of Uttarakhand, India, at an altitude of 3,680 meters. It is part of the Panch Kedar pilgrimage and is accessible via a scenic trek from Chopta, offering breathtaking views of the Himalayan peaks. The 1,000-year-old temple is significant for its spiritual importance, and according to legend, it is the spot where Lord Shiva's arms appeared after he transformed into a bull to escape the Pandavas.

Visiting Tungnath Temple, the highest Shiva temple in the world, was an experience filled with peace, adventure, and breathtaking beauty. The atmosphere at the temple is peaceful and spiritual. I highly recommend starting your trek early, around 3 to 4 AM. Take some water and food with you. Har Har Mahadev 🙏

Auli ropeway or Gondola is the worth having experience when you're in Auli. It's an open flying trolley that takes you to the top and you witness breathtaking mountain views. Price per person is Ra.500/- only. You can do several snow adventure activities like Skiing, sledging, trekking etc when you reach the top.

Its the most unique experience. Ropeway costs 1000 and 500 for chair car incase you have reservations. Its a 25 min ride and the most enticing experience. You can see all snow tops. Beautiful scenery. . Tickets for ropeway gets booked easily and it closes by 4. So keep your timelines scheduled.

The longest ropeway in India.A full 25 minutes of hanging over some of the most picture-postcard perfect locales ever. We took it a total of four times during our five days stay there. The staff is helpful the gondola has a standing-only place and in case you want to go to the Auli ski resort you get down at a pillar before the end and take a rickety lift six floors down and then take the ski lift to the resort. The experience of sitting with your legs dangling and nothing but a bar between you and everything else around you ( in the ski lift) is like being in another world altogether. Even if you are not booked into one of the resorts in joshi math, please take this trip up to auli . It's worth every minute and every rupee sent on it

Nice place to visit. It’s very beautiful to visit both in winter and off winter. There are variety of flowers in this place. They looks so mesmerizing. After the rope way we took mule ride to see flowers. It was so beautiful. One must visit.

We went there but couldn't experience it. It's very important to get online booking done if you are choosing a crowded day like new year. Also, the offline booking portal opens at 9 am. So if you haven't got online ticket, try buying it offline early morning.

The true beauty of this place can be enjoyed only during peak winter that's when the entire area is covered in snow and winter sports like 🎿 is very popular. If the sky is clear and visibility is good then you would be able to see some of the peaks. Coming back to the ropeway it's a joy ride for sure but on the expensive side. The counter accepts payment in cash only (as usual in most part of UK and UP). Be aware that though there is a departure and return schedule the cable car won't take off until they have 20-25 people. The ground staff will ask you to enjoy pakoda and wait for your turn. The ride it self is good and takes ~ 21 mins one-way. After reaching the peak you can roam around and enjoy the view , take a pony ride or simply sit back and enjoy pakoda again :-).

This ropeway has two places to board. One is from Joshimath which is closed cabin and you have to go standing and maximum people allowed in cabin ropeway taxi is 25 people. This ropeway taxi goes at the maximum altitude of 10200 feet from where you can view Nandadevi, Trishul, Hathi ghoda Palki and many more peaks. Another ropeway to board is from Auli, which is open sitting seats and four people can sit on it.

Deoria tal A famous and beautiful place, the weather here remains cool and beautiful. People come here to roam and enjoy life.. Big mountains and rivers here. . But Here the rates of things are very high: and the rates of tracking are also higher than anywhere else:

If not crowded this place is pretty and a calm experience.

We trekked from Sari village to deoriatal It's a beautiful jungle walk opening into a large meadow having the tal The view of Himalayan ranges especially mount Choukhamba is mesmerizing During sunrise one can see reflection of mount Choukhamba in the lake which will blow ones mind (On a clear day) We went in the month of March and thus witnessed plethora of rhododendron flowers blooming in shades of red and pink During our forest walk

Must experience place! Stunning view of Choukhamba range and it's reflection in Lake water is another level feeling! Totally out of this world!!

Deoriatal trek starts from Sari village. Its a very beautiful place surrounded by lush green oak trees and this place has multiple food outlets . These outlets have a waiting time of minimum 15-20 mins when highly crowded. We went on 20th March 2022.

The view was amazing after the trek.

₹200 charge for adults and ₹100 charge for student.

The trek to Hemkund Sahib is filled with faith and beauty. At 15,000 feet, the calm lake with the Gurudwara beside it makes all the effort worth it. It’s a place where you truly feel peace, divinity, and the pure touch of nature❤️.

Beautiful glacial lake. Peaceful gurudwara. Hot chai and Khichdi are served at the langar. Next to it, around the place where the horse stable is, is a tiny mountain with a lot of Brahma Kamal plants. They are quite beautiful. Also try to visit on a day with clear skies. During the 1.5 hours I was up, the sky cleared out for like 2 minutes during which I clicked the pictures. Take the horse service if you can (to not get overly exhausted esp if doing after the Valley of Flowers Trek) I took the horse up and walked my way down and ended with lot of knee pains (for someone in 20s)

Hemkund Sahib is a soul-stirring destination, serene, sacred, and surrounded by stunning Himalayan beauty. 🏔️ However, the trek to reach here is more challenging than the Valley of Flowers. It’s a steep climb with many switchbacks, and the high altitude makes it even more demanding.

A Divine Journey Beyond Words Visiting Hemkund Sahib was not just a trip—it was a spiritual awakening. Nestled at 15,000 feet, surrounded by snow-capped peaks and the tranquil glacial lake, this sacred place radiates peace, purity, and divine energy. The trek is challenging but incredibly rewarding; every step feels guided by Waheguru's grace.

Hemkunt Sahib is a serene and spiritual place nestled in the Himalayas. The trek to the gurdwara is challenging but incredibly rewarding, with breathtaking views and peaceful surroundings. The devotion of the pilgrims and the calmness at the top make it a truly divine experience. A must-visit for both nature lovers and spiritual seekers.

What an atmosphere 👏 almost 16-17 km trek up-down from Ghangharia. Try to start trek as soon as possible (4-5 am).

Just completed the trek to Hemkund Sahib Gurudwara, and it was an experience of a lifetime! Every step of the challenging journey was worth it for the breathtaking views and the sense of accomplishment. The Gurudwara's serene atmosphere and stunning location amidst the Himalayas left me spellbound. But what truly made the experience special was the Kadha Prasad served at the Gurudwara. It was the perfect reward after the hectic trek, and every bite felt like a blessing. If you're a trekker or a spiritual seeker, Hemkund Sahib is a must-visit destination. The pain of the trek is compensated by the peace and beauty you'll experience here. Highly recommended!"

Bheem Pul, located in the charming village of Mana, the last Indian village near Badrinath, is one of the most fascinating and spiritually enriching spots in Uttarakhand. According to legend, this natural stone bridge was placed by Bheem, one of the Pandava brothers from the Mahabharata, to help Draupadi cross the Saraswati River on their way to heaven. The mythological connection adds an aura of mystery and divinity to the place. The bridge itself is a massive natural rock arching gracefully over the roaring Saraswati River, whose powerful flow and thunderous sound create a breathtaking sight. Surrounded by snow-clad peaks, lush greenery, and the crisp mountain air, Bheem Pul feels like a window into another world — untouched, pure, and deeply sacred.

It’s also an ideal spot for photography, meditation, and quiet reflection. Overall, Bheem Pul isn’t just a tourist destination — it’s a blend of myth, nature, and peace, making it a must-visit gem for anyone traveling to the Himalayas.

Beautiful place 😍 The villge's traditional stone-built houses add to its rustic charm, and the locals' attire n traditional costumes reflects the rich heritage of the region. Handmade woolen clothes crafted by the vlagers are not only beautiful but also of high quality, making them ideal mementos of your visit. Mana holds deep spiritual value, with several sacred sites based on Hindu scriptures. Ved Vyas C Cave, where the sage Vyasa is believed to have written the Mahabharata, is located here, along with Ganesh Gufa and Swarg Dwar. These sites make the village an L essential stop for- those seeking both cultural and spiritual enrichment.

Mana Village, known as the “First Indian Village,” is a beautiful and serene spot near Badrinath in the Himalayas.

It’s a 20 minute walk from the car parking.

Significance Of Saraswati River In Hindu History Saraswati River was a manifestation of Goddess Saraswati. She is the goddess of knowledge, music and creativity. Many Sanskrit texts refer that Kartikey, one of the children of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati, was appointed the Commander of Deva forces near the bank of Saraswati River. Lord Parshuram, an avatar of Lord Vishnu, bathed in the water of Saraswati River to repent for the sin of killing tyrant Kshatriyas. King Pururava, mentioned in Mahabharata, met his to-be-wife Urvashi near the banks of the Saraswati River. Not only the war of Mahabharata was fought near the Saraswati River, its recital also happened near the banks Sarswati river is said to be disappeared nowadays but in the first Village of mana you can see the origin of Saraswati river. White water running between the cliff, the sound of it gives you emmense pleasure just by watching and listening it. It is said to be a story that when sage ved vyas quoting the Mahabharata and lord yis writting, sarswati river is flowing with a lot of sound. Ved Vyas asked sarswati to make less noise as it is disturbing him but she did not listen. So ved vyas told her to be disappeared from the world and she did. The river is so beautiful although small but the water seems different more religious and more spiritual.

If you want to see the sacred Saraswati River, there’s only one place on Earth to do it—Mana Village. Nestled in the high Himalayas near Badrinath, this is where the mythical river bursts forth from the mountains, foaming and roaring with a power that takes your breath away. According to Hindu mythology, Lord Ganesha himself declared that Saraswati would not be visible anywhere else in the world, making this sight truly one of a kind. Before you reach the river, the village greets you with a charming market full of handwoven shawls, woolen caps, traditional crafts, and friendly locals happy to share their stories. Don’t miss the “Last Tea Shop of India,” where you can enjoy hot chai while gazing at snow peaks. The beauty of the Saraswati here is unmatched—its crystal-clear, icy waters tumble over rocks with incredible force, framed by lush greenery and ancient stone paths. Just a short walk away lies Bheem Pul, a colossal boulder said to have been placed by Bhima from the Mahabharata to help the Pandavas cross the river. The combination of living culture, stunning landscapes, and epic legends makes Mana an unforgettable destination. A must-visit for anyone seeking the magic of India’s heritage and nature in one place.

The place is not fully developed from earlier. Now you will find many shops just after mana parking. The place is quite crowded as there is very small area at main point. Overall place it worth to visit it. You will find Sarasvati temple and river. Temple is also converted to big temple which is attraction point. I would recommend everyone to visit at least once if you are coming yo Badrinath. You need to walk for approx 1km from parking.

There is a Saraswati temple near the Saraswati river and Bhim pul in Mana village. We need to trek for about 500m from car park. Also swarga rohini arch is found nearby from where the Pandavas went to swarga. We didn't go beyond this point as the locals suggested that it would be difficult for us to manage.

The Saraswati River near Mana village in Uttarakhand is highly revered for both its spiritual and mythological significance as well as its unique natural setting.

The Sarasvati River is a deified river first mentioned in the Rig Veda. Already since the 19th century, attempts have been made to identify the mythical Sarasvati of the Vedas with physical rivers. Many think that the Vedic Sarasvati river once flowed east of the Indus (Sindhu) river. Scientists, geologists as well as scholars have identified the Sarasvati with many present-day or now-defunct rivers. Two theories are popular in the attempts to identify the Sarasvati. Several scholars have identified the river with the present-day Ghaggar-Hakra River or dried up part of it, which is located in Northwestern India and Pakistan. Saraswati River, a tributary of Alaknanda River, originates near Badrinath. Saraswati River in Bengal, formerly a distributary of the Hooghly River, has dried up since the 17th century. Considered sacred by millions of Indians, Saraswati is one among the trio of India's holy rivers, along with Ganga and Yamuna. As per the documents submitted by the Haryana government in the recent case, around 6000 years ago the Saraswati river disappeared due to tectonic disturbances, impacting its tributaries.

Kedarnath Jyotirlinga, Uttarakhand 🕉️ A sacred and powerful pilgrimage site nestled in the lap of the Himalayas. The divine aura of Lord Shiva’s temple, surrounded by snow-clad peaks and the Mandakini River, is truly beyond words. Every step of the journey fills you with devotion, peace, and inner strength. 🏔️ The trek is challenging but deeply rewarding. ✨ Temple and surroundings are beautifully maintained by authorities and volunteers. 🙏 A must-visit for every devotee seeking spiritual awakening and natural beauty together.

I recently had the profound blessing of visiting Shri Kedarnath Temple, and I am still overwhelmed by the spiritual power and majestic beauty of this sacred place. It is, without any exaggeration, a 5-star experience that transcends any rating system. From the very beginning, the journey itself is a form of meditation. The trek from Gaurikund is undoubtedly challenging, but every step you take through the stunning Himalayan landscape, with the sound of the Mandakini River beside you and the chants of "Har Har Mahadev" all around, strips away your worldly worries and prepares you for the divine darshan. The moment I first laid eyes on the temple, standing strong and ancient against the backdrop of massive, snow-covered peaks, I was moved to tears. The entire valley vibrates with a divine energy that is palpable. The darshan of the sacred Jyotirlinga was the absolute pinnacle of my journey. The feeling inside the garbha griha (sanctum) is indescribable—a powerful sense of peace, history, and an immediate, personal connection to Lord Shiva. Everything about this place is magical: the crisp, cold mountain air, the sound of the temple bells, the morning aarti that echoes off the mountains, and the sense of unity with thousands of other devotees. This pilgrimage is not just a trip; it's a transformative experience. It tests your body but fills your soul. I left a piece of my heart in Kedarnath, and I brought back a sense of peace that I will cherish forever. I wholeheartedly recommend this divine journey to every single person.

Helicopter services are smooth, the roads are well-maintained, and there are clean toilets, mobile washrooms, shops, and places to eat along the way. The atmosphere is made even more special by supportive fellow devotees, welcoming locals, and bhajans playing throughout the route.

The Kedarnath Temple is an intensely spiritual and unforgettable experience, set against a stunning backdrop of snow-capped Himalayan peaks. The pilgrimage is described as a life-changing journey, but it comes with physical challenges, such as the long, high-altitude trek, crowded conditions during peak season, and unpredictable weather. The majestic setting of the temple, with the Mandakini River flowing nearby and peaks like Kedarnath and Kedar Dome in the background, is a major highlight. The scenery makes the challenging journey feel worthwhile.

Kedarnath Temple stands as a divine and majestic marvel amidst the mighty Himalayas. The moment you see the ancient shrine surrounded by towering peaks, an unexplained sense of peace and devotion fills your heart. It’s an experience beyond words—truly sacred and unforgettable.

It's a divine place and must visit place for those who believe in hindu mythology. To finish shri kedarnath track by foot you should have 3 to 4 days and if you have 2 days better to go with helicopter services from fata base. And most important is to book your hotel room in advance at kedarnath temple. Try to stay near to temple. Try to start your day at very early morning to avoid long queues and good open darshan of pindi.

Its a moderate 2 day trek with majestic views

Clearly seen from gangotri temple. Bhagirathi river sound will give you relief just sit at gangotri dham ghat and close your eyes will give you peace

Travelling during end of October to Jamunotri, Gangotri & Gaumukh is a lifetime memorable experience when Welkins on a azure blue sky Snow capped mountains enthrall you.It may be bit chilly but no fear of being washed away by heavy deluge. Select a full moon fortnight begin your journey from Uttarkashi on 11th /12th day of fullmoon fortnight & stay at Gaumugh on the full moon night. Lingering memory will . beckon you again & again.

Gangotri Glacier and the source of the Bhagirathi River, one of the primary headstreams of the Ganges River. The place is situated at a height of 13,200 ft The Himalayan peaks visible during this trek are Shivling,Sudarshan, Meru, Bhagirathi siter and more.

Very gruelling trek over the Gangotri glacier to Tapovan this year. The landscape has changed dramatically, making it difficult for amateur trekkers to go to Tapovan

Superb experience, awesome place to visit for friends and family. A point on the glacier where it gets converted into river is called the snout or mouth of the Glacier. One such famous snout of Gangotri glacier is called Goumukh or the source of Bhagirathi river - a tributary of Ganga. If one loves adventure and landscape photography then the Gangotri trekking is the best. There is a trek of 19 km from Gangotri to Gaumukh. It takes take around two days and two nights.

India in a region bordering Tibet. This glacier, one of the primary sources of the Ganges, is one of the largest in the Himalayas with an estimated volume of over 27 cubic kilometers. The glacier is about 30 kilometres long and 2 to 4 km wide. It is most beautiful place and peace of mind
