Location
A ropeway or cable car ride is the best-known way to access the snow view point. Just as the name implies, one can view the snow laden Himalayas from this view point. At an altitude of 2270 m, the Snow View point is situated on top of the Sher-ka-danda ridge. At a distance of 2.5 kms from the town of Nainital, this is the most easily accessible hilltop.
During the months of October and November, a spectacular view of the snow bound mountains can be witnessed. Be prepared to capture the scenic beauty of India in your cameras. Tea, snacks and other refreshments are also available atop this hill in case you want to spend more time around.
