SNOW VIEW
Altitude: 2270 metres above Sea Level
View: Nanda Devi Peak
The Snow view point is located at a height of 2270 meter
above sea level. It can be reached by the ropeway or the ponies available
at Mallital. From Snow Point, you can have an enthralling view of the
Nanda Devi Peak. This place also has good views of the other peaks of the
Northern Himalayas.
Hire a pair of binoculars for a close view of the peaks. Dress yourself
in Kumaoni dresses and have yourself photographed with the Himalayas in
the backdrop. The Dev Mundi house at the top has marble images of
goddesses Durga, Sita, Lord Shiva, Lakshman and Hanuman.
A little walk from the peak takes you to the Gadhan Kun Kyop Ling Gompa.
The monastery is decorated with colourful flags. The Gompa serves the
Tibetan community of Nainital who
gather here during the summers to sell woollen garments.
