About Krritik
A Village Home Facing the Himalayas
Krritik Holiday Homes is in Hartola, a small village at around 2,200 m (7,200 ft) in Nainital district, on the edge of the Mukteshwar forest reserve and far from the usual tourist crowds. On clear mornings the Himalayan range rises above a sea of clouds, and the hillsides around us are covered in banj oak, burans and deodar.
Mukteshwar is 25 km away, Kainchi Dham 37 km, Nainital 49 km and Ranikhet 77 km, close enough to explore and far enough to feel away from it all.
We created Krritik for travellers who want to slow down: read on a sunny terrace, walk village trails, eat simple home-cooked food and sleep in warm, comfortable rooms. Whether you come as a couple, a family or a group of friends, we want you to feel at home in the hills.

Sunrises, Stars and Fresh Mountain Air
Mornings start with chai and a view of the snow peaks. Days are for forest walks, orchard visits and temple trips, and evenings for bonfires under star-filled skies. Out here there is no rush: just the hills, the quiet and the people you came with.
