Hey everyone we are hoomies back again with a new destination in India. This time we planned for a very short and sweet trip all the way to the hills amidst the beauty of nature and clean refreshing environment.
Micholi is a very beautiful hill station in The state of Uttarakhand in India. This is one of the less discovered, the less travelled location and a gateway for offbeat travellers.
Situated between Jim Corbett and Ranikhet. This lovely place is a bit far off from New Delhi around 330 km and it took us around 7-8 hours to reach this place. This is located in the Almorah district of Uttarakhand. The place is rich in flower and fauna and serves as an exciting site for visitors. This is home to various species of beautiful birds 🦅. It lets you soak into its pure, natural bliss. Away from all the crowd, pollution, din and bustle.
Enjoy this beautiful amazing hill station at a height of around 6000 feet amidst dense virgin nature forest. You will get to see hundreds of indigenous flora and fauna species.
This place is very far away from everything with just a few resorts to stay at. You get to experience beautiful hills close to Nanital nearby. The resort we stayed at was just beautiful. Its “essence of nature”. Very good hospitality, well maintained. Really good food 🥘. The hotel has got everything for you to enjoy including all the indoor and outdoor games and activities.

Micholi is known as the “Paradise of Birds”. You can spend a lovely weekend here. The place has not yet been explored much and thus stands out of all and is a must-visit for travellers.
One of the newly discovered places is “the Eov hills”. The place is just amazing and wonderful.
One of the very nice places to enjoy a weekend gateway. Next to the resort was a very nice Hindu temple just a 10 minutes walk. A good walk and a nice place to visit. It was just a small temple similar to the ones to usually see on hills stations. A very peaceful and calm place. 😇
