About Boating in Bhimtal

Nainital, or commonly known as the city of lakes is one of the best gifts that nature has given us. Scenic hills, snow capped mountains, chirping birds, rocky terrains, soothing climate are some of the clauses that would be sufficient to describe the aura of the destination. Among the top things to do after visiting Nainital, boating in Nainital acquires a cult position. Apart from the Naini lake, the Bhimtal lake is one of the multitudes of magnificent natural wonders that one can find at Nainital.

The Bhimtal lake is situated just 1 hour away from the town of Nainital. All the tourists generally have Bhimtal lake boating as one of the must-dos during their visit to the town of Nainital. The lake is situated at a distance of 22 kilometers from the town of Nainital and can be visited via booking private cabs or shared taxis. The beauty of the Bhimtal lake can be devoured by the tourists by taking a boat ride across the lake.

The boating service at Bhimtal is open for the tourists every day. The boating at Bhimtal timings are from 9 am in the morning to 6 pm in the evening. The boats have a capacity of four and take the tourists on a ride across the lake. The boating at Bhimtal Nainital entry fee is 150 rupees per person. Boating at Bhimtal lake is generally visited by almost all the tourists and owing to this thick volume of tourist's feet fall, the Government has well maintained the lake for the growth of tourism industry. The complete tour around the Bhimtal lake on a boat is completed in a time of about 30 minutes.

There is also an island at the center of the Bhimtal lake which is an aquarium. The island, which earlier used to be a restaurant has been now converted into an aquarium which can be visited by the tourists. The boat trip to this island is charged at 100 rupees per person for both ways of the trip. The aquarium has separate entry charges and can be paid separately. The adults have to pay an amount of 60 rupees whereas the ticket for children costs 30 rupees per child. Visiting the aquarium takes about 20 to 30 minutes. It is really a charm to enjoy the views surrounding the island on which the aquarium is situated. The aquarium visit is one of the specialties of boating at Bhimtal Lake.

The tourists can also enjoy the beauty of the destination by availing the accommodation options nearby. There are a number of hotels that provide accommodation facilities for the tourists even though the tourists generally prefer to come on a half day visit to Bhimtal lake which is especially for boating at Bhimtal lake only. The water in the Bhimtal lake is present up to a depth of 18 meters and the lake is about 1701 meters long. The lake, situated in the lap of magnificent mountains, is a must visit place for all the tourists.

    Amol's 7 days trip to Nainital

    .The hotel in Mussoorie Jim Corbett Nainital was fine, it was expected to be even better. The food given was good in some places and not right in others. How can it be better? No complaints about the rest of the vehicle and driver. The tour is expected to be a bit more relaxed in the next tour.
    The response from the tour planner was good but they are little bit clearity required . Mussoorie is best in hotel and food.sightseening is also good

    Miss's 4 days trip to Nainital

    The overall experience was good. We tried to cover all the places in the itinerary but missed some due to time constraint and long distance. Even few kms in the mountains is a lot. The driver was not experienced, he pretended as if he knows everything but he knew nothing. The goodies, cake, candle
    light dinner was not there as per the plan. There was mismanagement at some places. Cygnett resort was very good but Gajraj Trails Resort was okayish. Corbett Safari was good. Overall would rate the trip 4 out of 5.

    Apurva's 5 days trip to Nainital

    The trip arrangements were good. Ms. Neha was very prompt and kind right from the trip booking. Most importantly she was one phone call away if we need anything. Hotel chosen at Nainital was Dynasty resorts. I had checked the google reviews and it showed 3.5 stars so I gave confirmation to Neha. Bu
    t the hotel experience was not good. Hotel staff is not caring. Looking at the hotel delux room cost, services provided are very less. I'll never recommend this hotel to anyone. Also, it is 10km away from Nainital view points so unnecessary your travel time increases. The Corbett view resort at Jim Corbett was nice. Staff was good and I'll give full marks to maintained cleanliness in surroundings and in rooms too. We were provided with delux room. There were huts also and we were not informed about room type. If we had known earlier about huts, I would have chosen hut stay. But anyways, our stay was comfortable, food was tasty and overall the hotel area is very nice. I would like to exclusively mention about the taxi and driver arrangements. There is one plus point and one improvement about taxi arrangements. As per the policy, driver details are shared to you one day before your trip. But in our case it was little late response. Our flight was scheduled at 11pm from Pune and we were supposed to reach delhi next day 2AM. We received taxi driver details around 9.30pm that day. So, I think this can be improved so that customer is not worried about all this. Plus point is, driver was too good. No complaints. Very humble and very punctual. Thank you so much chintu ji. Overall trip experience was good. Thank you team.
