Travel Guides and trips for staying in camp at pangot

.Blue-Capped Rock Thrush (Monticola Cinclorhyncha).

The next morning, after hot chocolate milk, I started my Pangot tour. My only focus was to explore the village nothing else, so I didn't include Nainital to the itinerary. Due to certain tragedies on my way, I couldn't extend my trip, and I have to return the second day. But one thing I clearly know that this is the place I need to visit again. The waterfall, dense jungle, terrains, the narrow road and everything about Pangot is different from some of the best hill station in Uttarakhand. The whole and untouched village of Kumaun is no doubt the best offbeat destination that one must visit to witness the real beauty of nature and feel the harmony and magical vibes of the natural panorama.What's best about Pangot is that it can be your solo trip destination and an exciting gateway with a gang of bikers or your squad. Its all up to you how you want to explore.

The trip was short but worth. I started my journey from Delhi, and within 6 hours I reached Pangot. The first day was complete leisure. The view from the hotel room, the calmness of the valley and the little chill in the weather made my leisure day perfect. Later in the evening I went out to capture the landscape and to test my luck as if I could spot some birds.

3. Carry mosquito repellent - Since you don't want to be down with malaria/dengue or likely diseases, its better to be safe than sorry. Of course you don't need these in a hotel, but these protective measures prove to be handy, especially for the bag-packers/camping lovers.

The time we spent in Kilbury was an experience out of the world! Not that we saw many exotic birds, but the feeling to be surrounded in wilderness itself gave us goosebumps. As we bid adieu to Kilbury, our driver Jitender ji drove us to Pangot with a surprised look.Creasing his forehead, he hesitantly asked us if we were camping in Pangot. Getting a no in response, he said Pangot is a village and there is nothing to see. We could not agree more with him but who wants to miss the breathtaking view of the hills? We got off at CampMehi and descended the little slope.

In evening we decided to go to Pangot which is about 50 km from Sattal. It was second time that I visited Pangot. We pitched our tent in jungle, made fire and cooked food, (indeed Maggie and Soup). Sky was not that clear as it was in my first visit but we managed few good shots. In three years gap of my two visits, Pangot has changed a lot. However it is still a good place for birders and wildlife enthusiasts. Next day early morning instead of exploring Pangot we headed for Vinayak and Kunjakharak.
