Mountain Trail
Mukteshwar, Uttarakhand.
The Resort :- Mountain Trail, situated at 2300 m (8000 ft. ) asl, only 330 kms from Delhi and 46 kms from Nainital, is an idyllic spot where you would love to spend your holiday. Set on a gentle hill slope, facing the Himalayas, deep valleys and a beautiful sunrise, located in the middle of a 2-1/2 acre orchard of over 100 fruit trees & flower beds of over 70 variety of flowers, Mountain trail is truly a round the year resort. In summer it has the ideal climate for a getaway, with pleasant days & cool nights. During monsoon months it is lush green, as far as your eyes can see. Autumn brings splashes of rust and vermillon hues to the trees while winter covers it in a blanket of snow.

Though Mountain Trail is the ONLY classified resort in Mukteshwar ( by Dept. of Tourism, Govt. of India), it does not boast of Luxury. It however assures of all basic amenities, comfort, cleanliness, hygiene, delicious homelike food & courteous services.

Some of the current employees have worked as labourers with the project & are with us for the last 18 Years. Housekeeping is instructed strictly to switch the ‘room mains' off as soon as guests leaves/departs. To save energy 90% of the bulbs used are CFL that too mostly of 8-11 watts range. Water is from a Natural spring source & collected by harvesting rain water. Water usage guidelines are displayed in each room.
 
Towels / Linen suggested not to wash everyday. Cisterns are set at water saving levels The architecture is absolutely vernacular & blends with the village surroundings. These are ground level cottages only & has minimal impact on the natural surroundings. Mostly Traditional building methods and local craftsman builders are used. Waste is segregated as WET & DRY. Wet is used for manure in our orchard & Dry is transported to municipal dumps for recycling. No chemicals or inorganic fertilizers are used only natural manure. Eco Soap/Shampoo is purely herbal to avoid chemical discharge.
Dos/Don'ts to protect environment are displayed on two ‘Information Boards' at the reception itself. This makes guests aware of Hotel environmental programmes & learn to respect local people culture & traditions. Only paper bags are used in our gift shop. There are no TVS in the rooms. Old sheets & towels are cut to create cleaning rags. 75% of our promotion is done through websites / e-mails rather that leaflets to save paper. The gray water from the bathroom is filtered through natural soil & then used to water our garden. Employees are given annual paid leaves. Local guides are used to enhance the experience & provide an income to the hosts.
 

An organic wild life garden has been created with a mix of Fruit Trees, wild flowers, Shrubs, ornamental flowers, local plants, vines, grass etc. to attract all sorts of birds, butterflies, bees, caterpillars, snails, amphibians, reptiles, insects, small mammals, organisms in the soil etc. Bird Houses, Bird baths have been placed all over the resort to attract various species of birds.
