Pangot- A Heaven for Your Weekend Escape

Hey Guys! Today, Tripbeam is taking you just a few miles away from the perpetually bustling city of Nainital. This charming and isolated village provides incredible views of the Himalayas, an unusual experience in unspoiled nature, the chance to see bird species you never knew existed, and overall, the perfect retreat.

Pangot, a village in Uttarakhand’s Kumaon mountains, is best described as an ignored Heaven due to its undisturbed splendour and untouched elegance. As you book your cheap tickets to India from USA and travel through the congested streets of Nainital, asking where the calm that all the mountain lovers talk about is, you will come across a bend that leads to Pangot, and the view will change dramatically. The roads will narrow, the woodlands will become denser, and the crowds will gradually vanish. You step into a new, simpler period filled with leafy surroundings and chillier breezes. The sounds of over 300 different species of birds that call Pangot home will be heard instead of the sound of honking cars. If fortune favours you, you may encounter several kinds of deer along the route.

Things to do in Pangot?

Upon reaching the Lodge, settle in and enjoy a tasty lunch by noon. Then, head out for the Cheena/Naina Peak trek. You can choose a short, crowded 2 km trek or a longer 15 km trek from the Lodge, which takes you through beautiful forests without any crowd or noise. Additionally, you can visit Tripbeam.ca for affordable Canada to India-flight tickets.

The trek is moderate and takes a few hours to complete. The views are stunning, especially in winter when the snow covers the trail. After returning from the trek, enjoy some evening snacks at the Lodge while watching the sunset. Start a bonfire and have dinner, then get some rest for the Second day.

Second Day

• Vinayak Top

You can kick off the second day by catching the sunrise at Vinayak Top, just a short trek or 5 km drive from the Lodge. Wake up early, grab your camera, and witness the sky transform with the rising sun. You can also visit the temple there and enjoy bird watching in the morning.

After returning, relish a delicious breakfast at the Lodge and take a break. Nearby streams offer great spots for bird watching and jungle walks, perfect for the afternoon.
If you have never explored the crowded Mall Road of Nainital, spend the rest of the day exploring the city. You can visit famous places like Naina Devi Temple, Nainital Zoo and Tiffin Top.

Finally, head back home with incredible memories and a refreshed mind. Pangot’s calm atmosphere makes it an ideal place to unwind and relax. So, don’t hesitate.
