Location
Kafal House lies 15 kilometers away from Nainital in Pangot. Nainital,
Kilbury and Pangot have the richest oak, pine and rhododendron forest
in the area. This green belt supports an enormous variety of Himalayan
flora and fauna.
The Lodge
The lodge has well-furnished rooms with twin beds and attached baths with
hot and cold running water. The design provides good ventilation and the
wooden-tin roof give good insulation in cold weather.
For those in search of relaxation there are quiet jungle sit-outs nearby. The surrounding jungle offers excellent walks.
Activities
There are many walking trails through the surrounding jungle. You can
choose your own trail. One of the popular walks is from the Kilbury forest
rest house to Pangot.
You can go through the forest or along the main road, which rarely sees
vehicles pass by. The oak, pine, bamboo, cedar, rhododendron and other
conifers make the walk delightfully beautiful and refreshing. The undergrowth
is as fascinating with varieties of fern and moss breaking through the
rich soil.
The forest gets thicker as you walk further. The trickle of fresh water
streams enriches the habitat. You can often spy wildlife around the streams.
A host of birdlife inhabits this world. An absolute dream for a birdwatcher,
this walk is a must.
