Wellness resort to restore your mind, body and soul.

Magnolia Lodge and Spa is your mountain getaway located in Heeradungri, Almora, Uttarakhand, India

Our four bedrooms with attached baths boast hot and cold showers, bidet toilets, and individual air conditioning/heating to guarantee you a comfortable experience. Our rainwater harvesting and water purification systems ensure a continuous supply of fresh clean mountain water (even in the dry months!). 

With a variety of activities on-site and nearby, you can curate your ideal experience:

Rest and Relaxation - If you’re looking for a comfortable, calm and relaxed stay where the pressure of city life and the stress of modern living melts away and a serene soothing atmosphere prevails, we’ve got you covered. You can set your own pace and take advantage of the calming effect of the well known geomagnetic field prevalent in this area.

Adventure and Action – We have easy access to several hiking trails nearby and opportunities for mountain biking and skiing in the winter months. A large lawn situated next to the house provides ample space to play badminton, pickle ball, lawn bowls and even croquet! We plan to have archery and other sports available soon. For the more adventurous, trips to Pindari Glacier and the upper Himalayas can be arranged as well as rock climbing, hikes to the nearby Binsar wildlife sanctuary and Jageshwar . The bustling café scene at Crank's ridge and the Kasar resort strip as well as the pedestrian only Lala Bazaar in Almora’s town center offer closer and less strenuous options. 

Health and Wellness – The owner of Magnolia Lodge (Dr. Sumant Rawat) is a retired neurologist who has more than forty years of experience in mental wellness and is also an avid hiker and fitness enthusiast. Yoga and fitness classes are available on demand and we offer spa services to soothe any aches and pains. Our experienced staff provide simple nutritious and tasty ‘pahari’  dishes as well as popular North Indian dishes - and our authentic Italian wood-fired oven caters to every taste and palate. We also offer programs in weight reduction, dietary counseling, sleep hygiene and general fitness to ensure your  peak mental and physical fitness. 

Art and entertainment – A stay at Magnolia Lodge would not be complete without experiencing a music or dance concert in our outdoor amphitheater to round off your magical stay!

Whichever choice you make - or choose none at all and merely spend time in our beautiful surroundings - you are sure to return home with lifelong memories and a heightened imagination open to the wonder and possibilities life has to offer.
