Green Resort: Lake Village Resort in Naukuchiataal, Uttrakhand, INDIA


Lake Village Resort in Naukuchiataal - A Wonderful place in Uttrakhand State of India : Posted by VJ SHARMA on www.travellingcamera.com : Recently I visited Naukuchiataal with my office friends and we spend a nice weekend there to celebrate our year end release !!! It was wonderful stay at Lake  Village Resorts which is situated on main side of the lake... It is situated in the main market of Naukuchiataal and Lake is just across the road.. Lake village resort is a beautiful place to stay and here are few photographs which I clicked during this trip... Check Out !!!We reached at the resort at 7:00 am on saturday and it was very cold out there... This resort is just below a hill and sunlight reaches here around 9:30 am.. Till then its a courageous event to get out of your bed and have a walk outside :) Immediately after reaching there, we ordered some tea and went for a quick sleep... The photograph above is showing the rooms of this resort...There were three categories of rooms  and these were given to all the bachelors, so you can understand the category :)Of course, young blood needs swimming pool and it was near to their rooms, but empty :)  So most of us spent enough time in the lawn you see in front of these rooms ... Here is a night shot of dining area in Lake Village Resort... Their main restaurant is just just after the main entry to the resort... It has nice seating place for 25 folks at a time with 4-seater round tables... Before going their we decided our menu and most of us liked the food there... Surroundings of this restaurant are very well decorated with various plants and flowers... Whole area inside Lake Village Resort at Naukuchiataal has lot of green plants and flowers... I remember those days when I started photography and used to follow flowers... Flowers were my only subjest during those days and most of the times I got good results (in my opinion :) ) ... It started from my Mukteshwar trip where we stayed in a resort with rich flora around... don't remember the name now...Resort host nice arrangements during the evenings... Although it was chilling evening there but bonfire and other arrangements made us comfortable to spend some time together in a common area... Here is a photograph of live band performing in the evening... Sorry for this bad pick but I was not in a position to place my camera somewhere and tripod was not with me ...A flower pot which can be seen near all the stairs.. These were installed everywhere inside the resort with  some experiments in shape.... This resort has a nursery in the back side where lot fields with of flowers and vegetables...Swimming pool was empty and the pillars around it were showing some incompleteness.. All the engineers in our group were giving some theories about this and no one was convinced with other, which is a common trait of engineers :) ... Moreover, design of these poles was not matching with other designs used in their rooms or cottages...Every room had two balconies with lot of flower pots around it.. I don't have anything specific to mention about staff but want to thank to the guide who took us to morning-walk on second day.. We went uphill to see few local villages, farmers plowing the fields and ladies feeding their cattle... First we climbed a hill, then moved down towards the lake and had a half round around it...Overall we enjoyed the trip and stay at Lake Village Resort... They organized boating and kayaking for our group on first day and some of us also enjoyed para-gliding at a near by place ...


Last year, our office outing was planned for hills and Uttrakhand being the nearest hilly state, we thought of visiting Naukuchiyataal in UK :)


At Naukuchiyataal, we stayed at Lake Village Resort and it was a wonderful place to stay around the lake... Resort was spacious, green and safe !!! Part from normal facilities inside the resort, they also arrange for kayaking, boating, paragliding, paint ball etc... All of us enjoyed a lot and no one can miss the  evening masti around bonfire and DJ !!

I was just looking through some old photographs and liked this particular photograph which was clicked during our office trip to Naukuchiataal last year. During the evening there was a music band performing at the place where everyone was near bon-fire. This band was enough to ignite the musical sense of some folks and they were also singing along. btw, there were some very talented folks in our group who knew singing, guitar and many other musical instruments... We stayed in Lake Village resort and they had planned this for us.

Incomplete Structure of Lake Village Resort in Naukuchiataal, Uttrakhand, INDIA


Lake Village Resort is just in front of Naukuchiataal lake and recently we visited this place with office friends.. There were few pillars around swimming pool of the resort and architectural form of these pillars was completely different from overall designs of cottages and villas there.. Probably these pillars were installed to cover swimming pool with some designer roof....: Lake Village Resort in Naukuchiataal - A Wonderful place in Uttrakhand State of India : Posted by VJ SHARMA on www.travellingcamera.com : Recently I visited Naukuchiataal with my office friends and we spend a nice weekend there to celebrate our year end release !!!

Lake between dark hills of Naukuchiataal


Paragliding @ Naukuchiataal, Uttrakhand state of INDIA : During recent trip to Naukuchiataal, all of our office folks tried Paragliding and it was a great fun... Its 6 kilometers form the lake and one has to trek 400 meters to take off for the flight :): Here is our first hero to take the flight in the air.. Paraglider take off from a cliff and land down in a village near to the lake... Its 15-20 minutes ride depending upon the flow of the air... They charge 1300 rs for that.. I had already done paragliding at SONLANG Valley near Manali in Himachal Pradesh and BIR BILLING in Kangra Valley... So it was not worth spending 1300 .. For first time experience, its worth... Also one can negotiate to get a deal for 800-1000 in case group comprises of more than 5... : After feeling the excitment, most of my friends tried a ride in air... during the ride, many of them thought that I am clicking their photographs ... and you know... there was no pic with clear face :( : One of our friend screaming while taking off for the flight in air.... Road connecting lake and the place where paragliding happens... This road was very beutiful and had few patches on the way...Coloful hills arond paragliding area at Naukuchiataal... This is a view of hills parallel to the place where paragliders take off.... Tarun and his family taking rest on the half way while climbing to paragliding club.... Another photograph of the road leading to Pragaliding place from Naukuchiataal.. All of them want to try paragliding and waiting for gliders to come back.... Actually there were only 5 gliders there and they used to take them back from the landing place... All this used to take 30 minutes at least... A view of the lake from Paragliding place @ Naukuchiataal, Uttrakhand, INDIA... This is the landmark to find out the place where paragliding happens in Naukuchiataal... When we were driving towards it, we moved ahead and missed this board.... after some distance, we asked a gentleman on the way and got to know that borad was the point form where we had to climb to a small hill... Another paraglider in sky with clouds @ Naukuchiataal, Uttrakhand, INDIA

Safari to Corbett National Park @ Uttrakhand, INDIA

A Very old Safari to Corbett National Park @ Uttrakhand, INDIA: This was my first safari in Corbett. We entered through the Bijrani Gate. The interesting thing about a safari is that many people tell you upfront that the chances of sighting a tiger is very slim. But at each visit you feel that you may be the lucky one. Chances are that you will not be. But it is still thrilling...: Posted by VJ on PHOTO JOURNEY @ www.travellingcamera.com : VJ, ripple, Vijay Kumar Sharma, ripple4photography, Frozen Moments, photographs, Photography, ripple (VJ), VJ, Ripple (VJ) Photography, VJ-Photography, Capture Present for Future, Freeze Present for Future, ripple (VJ) Photographs , VJ Photographs, Ripple (VJ) Photography : The forest is dense and you travel on noisy jeeps on frequently used paths. That further decreases the chances of sightings...

It is about 300 kilometers from Delhi and 35 kilometers from Kathgodam. It is a very serene place with a lot of lakes near by which adds to the natural beauty of the place. SaatTaal can well described as the synonym of scenery, sunshine, serenity and solitude. It a place that turns an ordinary person into a natural poet. It`s a place located far from crowded places...Check out more photographs of Saat-Taal @ www.travellingcamera.com
