Uttarakhand's classic lake city—crowded, nostalgic, and best experienced on foot.
Nainital is Uttarakhand's original darling—a mango-shaped lake city that has been the go-to hill station for North Indians for decades. Yes, it can get notoriously crowded, and yes...
If you like Nainital, you might also enjoy these destinations.
Find Nainital trips departing from your city.
Expect stunning lake views wrapped in green hills, a buzzing Mall Road filled with tourists, aggressive taxi drivers, and some of the best street momos in the state. Prepare for steep uphill walks if your hotel isn't right on the lake.
The most convenient way is to take a train to Kathgodam Railway Station (the Shatabdi Express from Delhi is perfect), followed by a 1-hour taxi ride to Nainital. Driving from Delhi takes about 7-8 hours via NH9. Pantnagar is the nearest airport (70 km away), but flights are limited.
Skip the flashy, overpriced restaurants on the main Mall Road for dinner. Walk into the alleys near the flats or Bhotia Market for authentic, cheaper, and tastier meals.
