Beautiful Hill Stations of India


The hill stations of India offer tourists a cool escape from the heat of the plains in the summer, the chance to enjoy alpine sports in winter and the opportunity to enjoy mountaineering and trekking all the year round. Some of the beautiful hill stations in India are Mussoorie, Nainital, Dharamsala, Shimla, Kullu Manali and Mount Abu.

Mussoorie, popularly known as the Queen of hills is situated in the Garhwal hills. Its enormous natural beauty derives this tile for itself. Mussoorie is an excellent breather for tourists and people who want relief from the hot humid conditions of the plains. Nature has gifted Mussoorie everything which makes it a very beautiful place. Tourists start coming here with the arrival of summer.

Nainital, located in Uttaranchal is a small town in the hills of Kumaon and a lovely hill station bounded by mountains on three sides. There were several lakes in this region before and it was called the city of sixty lakes or “Chakta”. Most of the lakes in the region have vanished and you can find only a glimpse of what they were in the past. Nowadays, the life of Nainital revolves around Naini Lake.

Mount Abu, the sole hill station in Rajasthan, is a charming hill station which is a green oasis in the infertile desert cape. Situated at the southern peak of the Aravali range, the hill retreat owes its cool climate to its rich flora.

Apart from having all the features of a pleasant hill resort, Mount Abu is also well known for the famous Dilwara temples.
