Nainital also known as the “Gateway to Naini Lake”, Jeolikot is an ideal place for those who are interested in soaking up the positive vibes from mother nature or simply lounging around.
If you’re lucky, you also stand a chance to spot a deer or other mesmerising animals while hiking towards the hostel.If you’re enroute Nainital and plan on making a pit stop here, a glass of tea with ‘bread pakoda’ along with the picturesque views of the mountains and the blistering sunshine, is the perfect trailer to the beauty that lies ahead (Nainital).
With sloping roofs and a fairy-tale ambience the jeolikot hostel is nothing lesser than paradise.The hostel buildings date back to the British era and are 150 years old.Tucked away in a cozy corner at the top, to get to the hostel you need to hike for 680 meters and the experience is exactly what you’ve seen in The Jungle Book!
Away from the city’s hustle bustle, the hostel will make you fall in love with mother nature to a whole new level. You can either sit back, relax and read a book or make your own hiking trail to the top where you will witness the Shiva Temple which is as old as time can get!
