We (my husband, my seven year old son and myself) decided on Corbet for our summer holiday and then wanted one more place in the hill. I chose Pangot to see Himalaya instead of Nainital, as we wanted an off beat places that is not crowded or fully commercialized. This was our first Himalaya trip. And I chose Jungle Lore... More

The rugged stone cottage, numerous artifacts, lovely flowering plants all over the place and hundreds of birds chirping around the campus makes this one of the best places to stay if you are a serious birder and bird photographer.

We stayed during the coldest cold spell in recent times so found the room very cold, but they provided a gas heater which helped us through the nights. The lodge itself is pleasant, and includes bird-friendly habitat which meant we added three life species just in the grounds. The staff are warm and friendly and very very helpful and accommodating.... More

Great place to stay in the laps of nature. I visited with my family and parents and what a wonderful experience it was...... Though one whole day it was raining but we could still enjoy nature sipping Hot tea and coffee. Even the drive from Nainital to Pangot is mesmerizing. Staff at Jungle Lore is quite hospitable and serve some... More

We stayed here for 2 nights in October 2010. We went to Pangot specifically for Bird watching and we were definitely not disappointed. Pangot is around 17 kms. from Nainital, but it's mostly a dirt road. It's a very quaint place literally in the middle of nowhere. The Jungle Lore birding lodge is an excellent property providing a surprisingly comfortable... More

Spent a delightful extended weekend at the Jungle lore Birding Lodge, pangot. The views, the green hills in the rain, the complete absence of tourists, the not reachable cellphone and the abundance of Birds makes this the perfect place to exhale all the muck and grime of the big city and Inhale the sparkling mountain air. The Lodge itself is... More

We stayed for 3 nights at the Jungle Lore lodge as part of a horse trekking break in the Himalayas. The lodge had the most breaktaking views down the mountain and of the sunset which made it a spectacular place to stay. The room we had was great - with a clean bathroom (although the shower pressure was more like... More
