There is very little to do in Corbett National Park besides the regulation safaris into the jungle. Kosi river is a good, less frequently visited site, specially near the suspension bridge. One can click pictures of this old style bridge and trek down to the riverside for more pictures on the stones along the river bed. The view is picturesque.

You hike through thick pine forest, and its a very relaxed hike, to reach this old temple. Its quiet and peaceful, lets you soak in the divinity and natural beauty around.

Located at 4 km from Bhimtal, and 26 km from Nainital, the deepest of all the lakes in the Nainital region, Naukuchital is serene and picturesque lake, which offers numerous water sports if one has an appetite for adventure. Comparing to Bhimtal/Nainital, the lake is smaller and less crowded. One can witness/feel soothing sound of water, fresh air, clear sky and view of lake & hills plus people enjoying boating on colorful boats/Shikaras. Beware of monkeys; they can snatch your belongings in a wink. There is an adjacent lake viz. “Kamal Tal”, having lotus flowers. Only a passage separates both lakes. One can enjoy few snacks at small outlets available. An Outlet/Restaurant namely “Yellow Dolphin” is recommended. Overall, worth a visit.

The peace & tranquility of this religious place is beyond imagination, The Hills , the fresh water lake, the woods, the narrow lanes, the sounds of birds & animals, fresh thin air which is suppose to have healing properties all around makes this place a true paradise on earth. No TV & No news Paper makes this place even more serene, because you are forced to know yourself & the people around you which otherwise would not have been possible. The boating, Rock climbing & fishing the local fish - Mahseer are the activities for the young. People managing this Ashram are very friendly & helpful.

Excellent scenic view of the lake and Nainital Valley surrounded by the hills. Nainital local authority should construct a proper platform at the location.

Had visited this Bird.sanctuary in March 2018. It's a must visit for any bird lover. Infact Pangot is such a small place, even in the present day that it's does not even have a barber shop in the village. Having said that it has atleast 20 hotels where you can choose to stay. It's a pretty offbeat location. Cellphone connectivity is an issue there, there are no fuel stations. The village has only two grocery shops, if I remember correctly. In short if you are going to Pangot for a birding trip, pack properly. If you forget anything you will not be able to buy a second one at Pangot. The most important thing however, which you should not forget at any cost, is to get your fuel tank filled either at Nainital or at Kaladunghi. And if you are going to Pangot for birding (why else will you go to Pangot? It's famous only for birds) ensure that you book your guide, in advance. Without a proper guide you will be lost in the jungles around Pangot. Lastly while birding is at the heart of Pangot, don't forget you can amazing views of the entire Himalayan range from a point before Cheer Point, from where you can get good landscape shots. And when going for birding carry a super telephoto lens (minimum 400mm) else you will be left wanting for extra reach. Remember birds in this part of the world are small. So they move very fast. Hence click at a high shutterspeed and be very alert. What all this remoteness of the place means that you can still see birds in the pristine forests around Pangot. Also no matter which season you are going, carry warm clothes. Pangot can get really cold. It receives snow in winters. So happy birding.
