Kausani
Natural Feature
Kausani is a pretty village sitting on a hillside amid dense pine forests and lofty snow-covered mountains. Untouched by commercialisation, the village is a nature lover’s delight with its pristine natural beauty and 300km-wide unbeatable vistas of Himalayan peaks – Trisul, Panchchuli, and Nanda Devi. Make sure to visit the Anasakti Ashram, otherwise known as Gandhi Ashram that will transcend you into the state of peace with their yoga sessions and prayers. Also, plenty of trekking trails surround the village, so more adventurous travellers can embark on a trekking expedition. For a secluded retreat and the best panorama, stay at the Kumaon Mandal Vikas Nigam (KMVN) resthouse in the village.
