Summer Camp Mountain Adventure at Saattal 2026
Camp Suriyagaon, Saattal
The Seven Lakes (Saat Tal). Situated a safe distance from Nainital (22km) is a wildlife refuge for humans. The air still smells like air, the moon is up close and personal, animals still own the forest and birds rule the skies. Saat-tal gets its name from the seven lakes in its vicinity. The camp is located on a hilltop overlooking the Saat-tal lakes and at a moderate height of 1350 m (4,300 ft) it is an ideal all-season camp. Apart from the abundance of natural beauty around you, the surrounding forest offers a lot of fun and action. You can go kayaking and swimming in crystal clear lakes and hiking through dense jungles past hidden villages and waterfalls. The dense Oak and conifer forest makes Saat-tal a birders paradise with more than 300 species of birds.
