MAIN ATTRACTIONS IN KANATAL

Kempty Falls : The most popular and a must see destination around Mussoorie are the Kempty Falls. Situated about 15 km from Mussoorie on the Yamunotri route the place is home to lovely falls where one can even have a nice cool dip at the base of the falls. The place gets quiet crowded during season months of May and June. They are going to put a trolly soon to reach the base of the falls from top. .

Dhanolti : About 25 km from Mussoorie, this hill station still in it's developing stage and therefore and unspoilt and beautiful. No markets, no concrete only tall pine trees , green meadows and fruit orchards greet you as you reach this scenically perfect destination. You also have picture perfect views of the snow clad Himalayas on a clear day to keep you company. It makes sense to combine your stay in Mussoorie with that in Dhanolti.

Chamba : About 50 km from Mussoorie is the smal hilll town of Chamba, Uttaranchal(of course don't confuse it with Chamba in Himachal). Again really unspoiilt and with lot of pines and deodar and good views. A real cool place to relax.
