    Overview of Hotel Jharipani Castle ( Swiss Tent Resort) , Mussorrie:

    Mussoorie
    Once called the queen of the Hills, the old lady has lost some of her luster, and her crown is slightly dented. But she is still worth a visit-ideal for a weekend away from the smog of Delhi and Metropolitan Cities. Visitors will find that the air is still pure and invigorating, the Mountains Majestic and the plains below, green and verdant to the jaded eye.

    Jharipani Fall:
    It is a beautiful waterfall just 1.5 kms of light trekking from resort. An ideal place to enjoy nature and after reaching the fall one feels as if something new is discovered.

    The Winter Line:

    There are two places in the world where one can see the meteorological wonder that is called the “winter line.” One is in Switzerland; the other is in Mussoorie. India. The winter line appears for about two months each year, usually from mid-October to mid-December. Each night as the sun sets over the Doon Valley a wonderful line is drawn which is the a blank line in the sky, The sun drops behind what is essentially a false horizon. The line distinctly separates the grey, murky air of our atmosphere from the wondrous pinks and auburn of the sunset sky. This winter line is very clearly and widely visible from Jharipani Castle.

    The resort has lovely walks for leisurely strolls and for children there are slides & swings and other indoor games to keep them busy. Evenings can be spent by the bon fire under a starry sky or indoors. Whichever may be the season, Jharipani Castle stays fully operational throughout the year, providing comfortable accommodation, services and cuisine that has become synonymous with our name over the years.

    This idyllic small resort is built entirely in the hill tents style. Our Swiss tents are well equipped to provide you a comfortable stay in the lap of nature. Our kitchen offers a wide variety of cuisine and guests are encouraged to interact with the chef for special requests.

    Jharipani Castle has been a venue for many successful executive meetings. It is also an ideal resort for stress relief programmes and soft treks.
