So just sit on the balcony, grab a cup of tea and watch the rays traverse from the peaks through the terraced valley.

Devbhoomi Aye aur Mandir Nahi Gaye
Mukteshwar Dham Temple, Mukteshwar
Mukteshwar Dham Temple, Mukteshwar
Mukteshwar Dham Temple, Mukteshwar
Uttarakhand is known as Devbhoomi- the land of gods, for its many temples that exist on the holy land. This makes it inevitable to wrap up a trip to Uttarakhand without a temple tour. So once you are freshened up proceed to the nearby Mukteshwar Dham. Set amidst in the forest is this temple devoted to Lord Shiva, the god behind the naming of the town. A five to ten minutes climb up the stairs will lead you to the temple. A sense of calmness enchants all through the premises of the temple. At the backdrop are some picturesque wide-angle views of the valley. This very spot is known as Chauli Ki Jali.

Bhalu Gaad Waterfall, Mukteshwar
Flowing down through the deep forest is this place to be closest to nature. The trek with an hour of walk on the rocky trail, crossing the streams and climbing the rocks up and down takes you to this covert waterfall. In autumns, the trail gets covered with lovely reddish-yellow leaves making it an impeccable walk through nature.

Other Places in the vicinity of Mukteshwar
The laid-back town of Mukteshwar is in close proximity to much-known tourist places like Nainital, Bhimtal, Ranikhet, and more. If you are here for a long stay then reward yourself with a visit to these beautiful places each having a unique charm of their own. One can try water sports like zorbing and kayaking or go paragliding all at Naukuchiatal which is just an hour away from the cottage. Also at just 40 km is the town of Nainital that has been seen in cinemas a lot..at least until the producer has a budget for international destinations. Here you can spend your day boating, shopping in the Tibet Market or go horse riding, take a ropeway to snow point and more. As the sun sets the streets of Mall road are buzzing with herds of people shopping and savoring their taste buds.
The day ends on a beautiful note of the million billion stars. This was when I and my ghoomakkad friend tried capturing the night sky from the balcony and created memories.

Feeling Hungry?
Food is something that can make or break your trip. When at club ten pine, be assured to be served the best. The restaurant in the cottage serves some of the most scrumptious home-like food. You just have to relish the food along with the beautiful valley view outside the window. Guests have an option for both veg and non-veg and can also place a special order for children below five years.
The cost factor
We all make a number of plans of getting out on a weekend trip or even long trips. The moment the cost factor comes into play a big hole in the pocket starts appearing. And then what…Leave it Yaar, Abhi Paise Nahi hai, phr Kabhi chalengae. The plan gets dumped all because of those colored printed papers. The tariff at Club Ten Pine is unlike others not exorbitant but falls in a mid-range stay. This adds to the many reasons to chose Club Ten Pine Mukteshwar apart from its service and the picturesque location.
So what are you waiting for..winter is approaching and soon the town will have a new white look embracing its beauty. Book your stay for the peak season now and avoid any last minute rush.
