ABOUT THE PROPERTY ::: FROZEN WOODS

”Frozen woods” is nestled in a beautiful, remote area of Kumaon Himalayas in Uttaranchal at a height of 6900 feet with a panoramic view of the Greater Himalayan peaks like Nandadevi, Trishul and Panchchuli. The view of the Panchchuli range, for which Kumaon is famous, is perhaps nowhere so splendidly offered than this area. Those who wish to avail of this grand spectacle must remember that the Himalayas show their face only to early risers.

Driving through dense oak and pine forest cover, you reach ”Frozen woods” in a comfortable eight hour drive from Delhi.

Its sole charm is quiet walks along the dappled glen with wildflowers, rustling pine trees and serenity. Escape to a place where there is no sound except the silence of the mountains and lose yourself to the nature. It is not a place for people who want to watch TV, but if you like reading, writing or just walking, you will love this place.

The property is close to a reserve forest teeming with bird and animal life. Deer, bears and panthers are not novelties in these forests.

"While the Sun sinks down to rest
Far in the regions of the west,
Though to the vale no parting beam
Be given, not one memorial gleam,
A lingering light he fondly throws
On the dear hills where first he rose"

… William Wordsworth
