KMVN Resort: The best views, excellent food, sunny terrace for laid back vacation, walking distance from Zero Point, out of the world environment. But you do not get electricity in the room except for 3 hours in evening, 2 buckets of hot water in the morning and no entertainment of modern world. Go there for laid back life.
The majestic Nanda Devi (second peak from left) as seen from Nainital is the second highest mountain of India at 7816 meters. The breathtaking sight of the entire sunlit range is reason enough to visit Nainital.
