Ancient ruins & mystery
Myth, mystery & mountain air.
Perched at 1,267 metres in the lower Shivalik ranges, Morni is Haryana's only hill station — named, legend says, after a queen who once ruled the area. Pines crown the hilltops while neem, oak, jamun and jacaranda blanket the slopes below.
Near Tikkar Taal stands a small temple containing a 12th-century Trimurti, and the crumbling remains of an old fort hint at a deeper history. Locals still gather at the lake on ceremonial occasions, considering its waters auspicious.
Pine, neem & jacaranda — forest cover across the slopes
Wildlife — jackals, sambhars & the occasional jungle cat
12th-century temple — Trimurti shrine on the lake bank
Know before you visit.
A few practical tips to make your Morni Hills & Tikkar Taal trip smooth and enjoyable.
Route: Chandigarh → Nada Sahib → Morni Hills → Tikkar Taal, about an hour's drive.
Pack layers — light cotton in summer, heavy woollens in winter at this elevation.
Book ahead on weekends — the Mountain Quail Resort and homestays fill up fast.
Watch for monkeys & langurs along the route — keep food packed away.
Best season: Year-round destination, but flowering trees make spring especially scenic.
A hill trip comes alive with the right company.
Solo trips end at a parking lot. The right companion turns Morni Hills into boating stories, trail chats, and a memory you'll actually keep.
