First and foremost, if you are going there during the season, tickets for the cable car need to be booked at least one day in advance. It is a short cable car ride to Snow View point lasting about two and a half minutes but the view during the ride is amazing. Once we reached the top, we indulged in... More

We were assured a wonderful Cable Car ride at Nainital by GeTS Holidays of New Delhi on our 12 day trip during April 2013. So when we reached the location to take the ride up to Snow View Point we learned that GeTS Holidays had made no arrangements for our trip which was included in our itinerary. Finally we purchased...

Its just a routine point. IN summer the clouds are there and ofcourse there is no snow view... If its clear, you can see the peaks. There is amusement park at the point, some shopping and stalls.. You can spend an hour or so there easily. Make sure you book your tickets in advance because there is a slot system... More

Its a KMVN property - Started of originally as a view point only but over the years, they have added a lot of rides & restaurants in the area. Rides include bumper cars, bull ride, small train, small car racing track, flying fox & free fall (which gives good view of the valley). Kids enjoy this a lot and can... More

Nice view but that is it. Nothing else in that place was very welcoming. The bath rooms were stinking and the only bar on the hilltop is next to the men's bathroom. If you like to eat over priced food and bad tea, then its just the thing for you.

You will have more fun going up there, rather than being there.. Also, be careful in choosing the transport. The local car taxis which ply taking up there could be very risky as they drive very rash!

Amazing place. I didnot know mountain watching can be so beautiful. I have never felt snow but the cold wind of the hill top along with the view of the himalayan range was just amazing. Should try going there...

The place is over rated, nothing much to do up there after ropeb way ride. Also there is lot of garbage piled up there, they need to take care of cleanliness at such a scenic place.
