Nainital

Just a short and scenic drive from some of the best hotels in Haldwani, including the highly recommended Hotel Sundaram, lies the charming Himalayan lake town of Nainital—one of North India’s most loved and visited hill stations. Popularly known as the Lake District of India, Nainital sits gracefully at an altitude of nearly 2,000 metres, surrounded by lush green mountains and pine-covered valleys.

The town is embraced by seven majestic hills, collectively known as Sapta-Shring—Ayarpata, Deopata, Handi-Bandi, Naina, Alma, Lariya-Kanta and Sher-ka-Danda. At the centre glistens the emerald Naini Lake, where colourful boats drift peacefully, creating postcard-perfect views. According to mythology, this sacred lake marks the spot where the eyes of Goddess Sati fell, giving Nainital its name and spiritual aura.

During the British era, Nainital served as the summer capital of the United Provinces, leaving behind a heritage of colonial villas, bungalows, and elite educational institutions. Today, travellers staying in Haldwani hotels often choose to explore Nainital for its cool climate, natural beauty, and cultural significance.

One of the most revered landmarks here is the Naina Devi Temple, situated right beside the lake. The scenic Mall Road, the bustling Tibetan Market, heritage churches, and panoramic viewpoints make Nainital a complete destination for families, couples, adventure travellers, and nature lovers.
