Things to do in Nainital, Uttarakhand: The Best Walking Tours

December 6, 2021 Marissa Gamble

Natural beauty abounds in the state of Uttaranchal's Lake District. Boaters flock to hill-ringed Naini Lake, which according to mythology is one of the emerald eyes of Shiva's wife. A hike or horseback ride to the top of Naina Peak (aka China Peak), the highest point, provides stunning views of the snow-capped Himalayas. To share a prime vantage point with family members of all ages, take the aerial lift up to Snow View; there's also a small marble temple at the top dedicated to Dev Mundi.

The trip was meticulously planned and executed to perfection to suite our requirements of birding. Icing on the cake was birding while it was snowing. Our guide knew all the happening birding hotspots and the bird species and that was a great help. I was able to see some very exotic species that I had hoped for and some more. Got nice pics too. The tour operator even accommodated our last minute request to add a stop during the return leg. Perfect trip. I have already done 3 trips with this organisation and plan to do more. Just waiting for the pandemic to be over.
