Explore via walking. ..standard
excursion is 1 km gentle ascent from TRH to Zero point.
For the fit, 6 km walk to
Ghoralkot inside forest and another 6 km walk to Sanghaghat, a small water
body. Take a guide.
Bineshwar Temple
Original Binsar Mahadev is near
Ranikhet (15 KM from Ranikhet). Ranikhet is 80 KMs from Binsar. Another same
namesake temple is on way (in Binsar WLS) when driving from Almora to Binsar.
Try meal at Kalmatia Sangam,
organically grown. + 'Silver Oak' restaurant (Binsar
Villa) ++ Khali estate (in WLS and only if you're staying there).

The nearest restaurant outside the Mahindra Resorts, about a km towards village Bhainsori, was the 'Shree Hayat Hotel' which was good for alu paratha and bhajjias and other local dishes.
Also try is 'Flavors of India'
near Mahindra resort. Pradeep is the guy there and will take you for Bird
Watching at 50% less than what Mahindra guys charge and is a 'must do'
while in Binsar.
Try pahadi oil massage + local
cuisine.
The one famous thing that you can
buy from Binsar is Rhododendron squash. + Apricot Oil.
Jageshwar: Among the 12 jyotirlingas in India, Jageshwar is located 36 km from Almora. Set amidst dense 'deodar' forests, Jageshwar with about 124 small and large stone temples ranging from 9th to 13th centuries, is also known as the ‘Temple City’.
