The Lake City
Why Nainital is Delhi's Favourite Hill Escape
Cradled within seven hills — Saptashring — and centred around the soulful Naini Lake, Nainital is Uttarakhand's most iconic hill station. At an altitude of 2,084 metres, it offers cool mountain air, forested ridges and the unique visual spectacle of a pear-shaped glacial lake perfectly framed by the Kumaon Himalayas.
The distance from Delhi to Nainital is approximately 300 km via NH9, making it one of the most accessible mountain destinations from the capital. The drive through Moradabad, Rampur and Kathgodam is a scenic introduction to the Kumaon foothills — you're rewarded with the first glimpse of Naini Lake as you ascend the winding hill roads.
Unlike busier hill stations, Nainital retains a charming Victorian colonial soul — from the old Raj-era buildings on Mall Road to the historic St. John in the Wilderness church. It's a destination that feels unhurried, warm and genuinely welcoming, whether you're on your honeymoon, a family holiday or a solo adventure.
Our Delhi to Nainital tour packages are designed to give you the best of the lake, the hills and the culture — with transparent pricing, handpicked hotels and experienced guides who know every hidden corner of Kumaon.
