Mountain Trail Resort |
||||||||
|
There is a clubhouse for get-togethers, with table tennis table, pool table and karom boards, a well-stocked library for guests, a barbecue for evening meals, a children's play area, and restaurant. It offers guided walks to local waterfalls, cross-country hikes, through the virgin forests, and to the natural beauty spots that surround the little town. The resort is open all year round. In winter, one can enjoy the cosy log fire in the restaurant, while outside the snow is piled deep. In spring, the gardens are full of apple blossoms, and the air is scented with thyme and sage. During the monsoons in July and August, the hills are shrouded in clouds, lush and saturated by the cleansing rain. And from July to September, the area lives up to its name as 'the fruit basket of Kumaon', with apples, apricots, plums and pears in abundance. Autumn is glorious, with crisp frosty nights and golden days - Mountain Trail is truly a place for all seasons. River Rafting and other adventure activities also can be arranged for adventure enthusiasts. Accommodation
