Chandrawal Kunj Forest Retreat

Chandrawal Kunj is one of the oldest resorts of Morni. It is also the greenest resort in the hills. It is located atop the chir-pine covered hill that overlooks Bhoj Jabial, about a kilometre from Morni along the Morni-Tikkar Tal road. The resort is built on leveled piece of land alongside a natural pond, with green hill-tops forming the backdrop to the South and East. The main cottage is painted in bright colours as are the four ‘huts’ (single room with sloping red roof). The flaming red poinsettias that have been planted along the boundary wall with the pond add colour and life to the resort. A large gazebo serves as the common dining area. The height is about 1200 metres and the thick cover of pines all around the resort makes it one of the coolest spots in summers. The owners have planted a wide variety of trees and flowery shrubs inside the resort.The deodars that are generally found at altitude greater than 1500 metres have been grown successfully inside the compound and promise to attain their majestic heights in another decade or so
