Overview

The Mighty Himalayas

The name Himalayas derived from the Sanskrit words hima, “snow,” and alaya, “abode”, the loftiest mountain system in the world which form the northern most limit of India. The Himalayas are 24 million years old and still stand as one of the youngest mountains in the world.  Himalayas are the most restless set of Mountains and only Mountain Range that Stretches Across 6 different Countries. Featuring from highest peaks on Earth and snow-clad landscapes to beautiful meadows, lakes, rivers and valleys, The Himalayas are home to many exotic locations in the world. The region also boasts of unique fauna and flora along with inhabitants who have adapted to survive in a rugged terrain and extreme climate.

Soulitude in the Himalayas

Nestled on a quiet hillside in Gagar (near Nainital), Soulitude, as the name suggests, provides complete solitude for the soul. Face-to-face with the mighty Kumaon Himalayas, instills within an all-pervading quietude that transforms and transports one into the world of ‘Soulitude’.

The experience of just being at Soulitude with spectacular 180-degree snow views, fresh mountain air, long walks, good food and warm hospitality will rejuvenate your mind, body & soul.

See & Do

Treks

Char Dham views from Jhandidhar


The trek to the Devi Mandir is a not to be missed experience for those who wouldn’t mind challenging themselves to a bit of an uphill trudge. The brave of heart who do undertake this trek will be amply rewarded for their tenacity when they reach the hill top, for nothing one can say can prepare anyone for what they will see or experience at the summit.


Kuleti Forest


It is a must do. Relatively easy on the foot, it is a comfortable walk with Nature putting up its very best show. The flora and fauna and an occasional sighting of a a barking deer may make this humble trek well worth the effort! Post breakfast or post lunch is a good time for doing this trek.


Reti Khan Village


Midway to the Devi Mandir trek, there is a diversion to the Reti Khan village. It is less strenuous than the Devi Mandir trek (or can be combined with the Devi Mandir trek) and it is an exhilarating trek to a remote Himalayan village.

Celebrations

At Soulitude

Celebrate special occasions with your loved ones sitting under the benign shade of the mighty Himalayas as they silently witnesses your festivities and shower their quiet benediction on you. Or in the company of the river and allow it to regale you with its symphony as you mark a momentous moment with the special person in your life!


* NOT INCLUDED IN PACKAGE

The Food

Ghar Ka Khana

Meals are an offering of home style cooking at its best. It is just the right blend where ‘ghar ka khana’ recieves a masterful touch to become it’s most flavorful and refined version, which sings on the palate and is easy on the system.

Nature, with the mountains, rolling hills, gurgling river and the rustle of breeze flowing through the leaves adds it’s own tadka to the food, to make it experience to remember! Not to mention, every meal is served our own range of home made pickles that will make your taste buds tickle!
