Tucked away about 9 km from Mussoorie, Jharipani Falls rests a gentle 2 km trek through an enchanting forest laden with dense oak, rhododendron, and deodar groves.  Part of the famous heritage Kipling Trail, and one of the best places to visit in Uttarakhand. Surrounded by bird calls and other wildlife, it is a paradise for nature lovers.

The water falls from 300 ft into a stunning moss-covered pool framed by cliffs, adding serenity to the experience. It turns into a roaring fall in the monsoon season, otherwise a gentle, safe fall all year around, perfect for a calming dip. Early mornings are the perfect time to sit beside the fall, enjoy the pleasant weather and indulge in some quiet introspection. 

Pack a picnic to enjoy with your friends and family, at the pool’s edge, sharing laughter, or absorbing the gentle mist cast by the falls, a heavenly escape. The rich flora and fauna also delight nature lovers and birdwatchers with wildflowers, creepers, and shrubby layers lining the path, attracting the avian population.

My stay at Larisa Hotel in Mussoorie was amazing, and my room opened up to views of the mountains and the Doon Valley. There is greenery everywhere here. Since I booked via Thrillophilia, I also enjoyed several adventure activities here during my stay, such as trekking, etc. The food here was also quite good. I had fun during my stay at Larisa Hotel, and would love to visit once again.

The resort was pleasant and tidy, and the rooms were nice and clean. The facilities were all present, though some of them were off-limits due to the COVID rules in place.
