Trip to Mukteshwar

As recommended by few friends, planned a trip to Mukteshwar. It is situated in the Nainital district of Uttarakhand, a nice place to get break from daily routine and june month's scorching  heat of Delhi. As few of us already visited Mukteshwar so we decided to travel by train to KathGodam and then Cab till Mukteshwar. We had already booked Saarthi Hotels & Resorts (Om

Stayed in Mukteshwar for 2 Nights and visited Chaulli ki Jaali, Aashram situated at walkable distance from Saarthi Resort. Resort was not as expected but food and staff was good and overall stay was comfortable. But one thing you can not ignore, resort situated at lonely place so one must need a vehicle to visit near by areas.

Now its time to move back to Delhi, but in between we decided to visit the Nainital for the half day as Train was going to depart in evening. Left early in the morning for Nainital and visited only mall road as stucked in Traffic Jam as there was very much heavy rush as it's peak season.

In late evening we caught the Train from Kathgodam Railway Station and reached New Delhi on forth day early morning. Overall trip was good and few memorable moments. I advice you to must visit Mukteshwar for enjoying nature, listening to air gushing through deodar forests, bird watching, meditation, and seeking peace.
