The Tranquil Boutique Homestay – Kanatal

Kanatal

Fallen blossoms lay bare on patches of recent snow during the harsh winters in the hills of Kanatal and in summers Kanatal boats its Alpine forests, Oak trees, lush deodar and tranquil vistas. This picturesque tinsel town of Kanatal is perched at 2590 mtr above sea level possessing spectacular grasslands, scenic trails, abundant Rhododendrons and lofty Himalayas.
