Camps & Camping · Sonapani, near Mukteshwar
Proper beds, a forest and a campfire
01 · Overview
Sonapani is a small settlement tucked into the forested ridges near Satkhol and Mukteshwar, with oak and pine all around and the snow range visible on clear days.
Glampinn Woods is the easiest way to sleep outdoors without giving anything up. The tents have real beds and attached comforts, dinner is cooked over the fire, and the only sounds at night are the forest ones. Days go on birding walks, village trails and doing very little in a hammock. It is a favourite for couples, friends and families with children who have never camped before.
02 · Highlights
Before you go
Nights are cold for most of the year. Bring a fleece and a warm hat.
In the monsoon (July – August) the forest is lush but trails can be slippery.
Pack a torch and closed shoes for getting around after dark.
