The Buransh, Kausani

The Buransh at Kausani is the first project of Kumaon Vistas Pvt Ltd. It has the unique distinction of blending quality tourism with nature's intelligence at work in Kausani, the abode of gods. Kausani is located 52 kms north of Almora in Bageshwar district of the Kumaon region of Uttarakhand in India. Kumaon Vistas is a unique hill resort providing leisure tourism to invigorate the body and mind. It moves away from weekend tourism to weekly sojourns with nature. The retreat provides an excellent view of the 350 KM stretch of the Himalayas on a clear sky. The peaks like Nanda Devi, Trishul, and Panchachuli are distinctly visible from Kausani.

Situated at a bracing altitude of 6,200 feet Kausani, dubbed the Switzerland of India by Mahatma Gandhi is a lovely holiday destination of Kumaon. Kausani offers a Himalayan panorama of over 240 km east to west; and a stunning view of the Baijnath valley at an altitude of 3000 feet to Nandadevi at 25662 feet - all from the same spot!! The area is rich in nature, from oak forests to flaming rhododendron bushes and forests teeming with bird and animal life. The ancient town of Baijnath around 16 kms away was established by the Katyuri kings of Kumaon in the 9-10th century. Anashakti Ashram where Gandhiji lived, Lafxmi Ashram: the centre of the Sarvodaya movement and the Sarla-ben and Gandhi museums add a touch of solemnity to Kausani.
