About Nainital
Nainital is the largest hill settlement in the kumaon region of Himalayas is the lake town.A dramatic climb of 1,300 meters over a 40 km route from the railhead at Kathgodam takes the visitor through winding river valleys, alongside terraced farms, lush green alpine forests and over mountain ridges, right up to Nainital.
On reaching the head of the town where the highway from the plains meets the main Mall at Tallital, you get a dramatic view of the beautiful Naini Lake nestling in its cocoon of hills. Brightly colored sails of yachts dot the calm waters of the lake while crowds of holidaymakers throng the Mall at its edge. Boating in the lake is just one of the favorite activities of the tourists who come to Nainital. Others come here for trekking in the still forested mountains that surround the town.
