Hey everyone!

I’m planning a 3-day solo trip to Nainital and would love some local advice 🙏

* I’ll be riding solo on my own bike
* Day 2 I’ll visit Kainchi Dham, then explore Nainital
* Snow View Point is a must for me
* I’m also planning to go to Pangot at night for stargazing

I wanted to ask:

1. Best exact spots in Pangot for stargazing (safe + clear sky)?
2. Is it safe to ride solo at night from Nainital to Pangot?
3. Any hidden gems / must-visit places in and around Nainital I shouldn’t miss?
4. Good budget stays or areas to stay (since I’ll have a bike)?

I’m coming from Pune, so really excited to finally see a sky full of stars 🌌

Thanks in advance!
