At an elevation of 2,290 metres, at a charming town, Mukteshwar, merges into
the Lohuket range. From the early summer to late autumn is
presented by a splendid panoramic view of the snow-ciad
Himalayas. Mukteshwar is famous for Mukteshwar Mahadev
Temple and Indian Veterinary Research Institute (IVRI),
established in 1898.
In close proximity is the stone "Chauli Ki Jali",
dedicated to Lord Shiva where childless couples come to
pray for children. Famous for its Himalayan views, from
Api-Nampa peaks of Nepal to the Chaukhamba peak of Garhwal.
Mukteshwar daringly overlooks a deep revine on one side
and the beautiful town of Almora on the other. It is a
heaven for nature lovers and those who have a penchant for
spiritualism.
