Kausani is the ideal place to have a spectacular view of the Himalayas from the Kumaon Hills of Uttaranchal. This small sleepy town is often referred to as the Switzerland of Uttaranchal and is the birthplace of the famous poet Sumitra Nandan Pant. Some places from Kausani give the maximum and spectacular view of the Himalayas. The peaks surrounded with dense forests and verdant luxury of nature seem to be competing with each other to ouch the sky, rising above the landscape.
Apart from the natural beauty this small town has many places of tourist interest here.
The Anashakti Ashram, which is associated with Mahatma Gandhi, is the major landmark of the town. Baijnath, Someshwar and Pinakeshwar are the religious places, which can be included in the visits. Kausani offers many treks deep into the forests to explore the nature's beauty on foot. The place experiences a beautiful climate throughout the year except for heavy showers from Mid July to September and two months of snowfall in December and January.
