Sacred Lakes of Nainital & Kumaon

The iconic crescent-shaped natural freshwater body that gives Nainital its name. Boating with classic rowers, scenic promenade strolls along Mall Road, and sacred darshan at Maa Naina Devi Temple on its northern bank.

Significantly larger than Naini Lake, Bhimtal is famed for its picturesque island aquarium right in the center and the 17th-century Bhimeshwar Mahadev temple built by Baz Bahadur.

An interconnected group of seven freshwater lakes set amidst dense oak and pine woodlands. A paradise for birdwatchers and nature photographers seeking unblemished mountain stillness.

A mysterious deep lake with nine corners fed by an underground perennial spring. Legend says that anyone who can view all nine corners simultaneously achieves divine liberation.
