It is an ideal weekend getaway near the cities of Chandigarh, Panchkula, and even Delhi. The serene atmosphere and breathtaking views might just make this spot one of your favorites. It&#8217;s a perfect combination of history and mountain-like scenery. If you happen to enjoy your peace of mind in the middle of utter nature, this is the place to be.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And guess what? It is extremely budget-friendly too.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The village is said to be named so after a queen who once ruled the area two thousand years back. She was a just and noble ruler of her Queendom.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This place caters to crowds of various age groups, be it a picnic with kids and elderly members of the family; or chilling and vibing with your college gang.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Where_is_Morni_Hills\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Where is Morni Hills<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The village of Morni lies on the mountainside, at an altitude of 1220 meters. It is at a distance of 250 kilometers from Delhi and 45 kilometers from <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/places-to-visit-in-chandigarh-things-to-do\/\">Chandigarh<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_reach_Morni_Hills\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">How to reach Morni Hills<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Morni is very well connected by road and easy to access. Depending on their convenience and preference, one can take their personal vehicle, use public transport, or hire a cab to get to this location.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is located at a distance of 45 kilometers from Chandigarh and 35 kilometers from Panchkula, which takes about a little more than an hour of travel.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Morni_Hills_Bus_Timings_and_Fare\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Morni Hills Bus Timings and Fare<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Haryana roadways provide good connectivity with buses running at a frequent rate on the route. To travel by bus, one has to catch it from the Panchkula bus stand and the ticket fare is around Rs. 30 person; which is extremely cheap when compared to personal cabs. You can check the bus timetable online and can call the bus stand to confirm the availability of the bus.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"By_Taxi\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">By Taxi<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You can also take a cab to the desired location, which might be a little heavy on the pocket as they usually charge somewhere around Rs. 2000 for a one-way journey. If you let the cab go, you will have no other option but to return by bus.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also Read:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/parvati-valley-trip-itinerary\/\">Parvati Valley Trip Itinerary \u2013 The Best Way to Plan your Trip<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Best_Time_to_Visit_Morni_Hills\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Best Time to Visit Morni Hills<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">An ideal time to visit Morni hills would be the winter season, between September to March. The weather during the summer season can be a bit harsh and monsoon comes with troubled roads.\u00a0 In winter, one can enjoy the sun&#8217;s warmth relaxing by the lakeside.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Where_to_stay\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Where to stay<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There are several OYO Inns and resorts near and around the location which you can get at a discounted price.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Tikkar Taal Tourist Complex that is managed by the Haryana Tourism has a resort just overlooking the lake, which costs around Rs. 2000 for a standard and Rs. 400 per bed in a dormitory.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">About 8kms from the lake, there is a Mountain Quail Tourist Complex which offers great hospitality in comparison to other lodges. Per night stay here costs around Rs. 2000 for a standard room and Rs. 3000 for a superior room.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Since ours was a budget trip, these places were be kept last in our list of places to stay.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I visited this place along with my friends in November 2019 and had a chance of staying at Anglers Paradise Resort. I absolutely fell in love with this place. One room cost us around Rs. 900\u00a0 or Rs. 1500 including the meals. The rooms were a bit small but adequately furnished and the caretaker was an amazing cook. The best part of the resort is the view it offers!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We could see the entire lake from this property. It was barely 1.5 kilometers of a walk from the lake itself. The manager was gracious enough to prepare whatever we asked him to; which were mainly maggie, aaloo\/paneer parantha topped with a dollop of Amul butter, and of course, a steaming cup of CHAI!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Another attribute I fell in love with, was the night sky. Imagine a full moon, clear sky with twinkling stars and a massive lake surrounded by hills in front of you. Endearing, isn&#8217;t it?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">My friends and I spent the whole night sitting under the sky, marveling at the beautiful view, playing guitars and singing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Breakfast with a view!!!!!!!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/morni-hills-and-tikkar-taal-2.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-25528 size-full\" title=\"hotel near Tikkar taal\" src=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/morni-hills-and-tikkar-taal-2.jpg\" alt=\"hotel near Tikkar taal\" width=\"800\" height=\"1067\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/morni-hills-and-tikkar-taal-2.jpg 800w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/morni-hills-and-tikkar-taal-2-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/morni-hills-and-tikkar-taal-2-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/morni-hills-and-tikkar-taal-2-585x780.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tikkar_Taal_a_magnificent_lake\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Tikkar Taal: a magnificent lake<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Tikkar Taal, the king of our blog is an absolutely stunning man-made water body, surrounded by hills and a great expanse of lush greenery. These carpets of green are generally used for picnic spots by many tourists.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Don&#8217;t forget to check out the resort run by Haryana Tourism, which is just beside the lake. For me, it was a stop to stock up on snacks and freshen up a bit as it had a decent washroom facility.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The adjoining restaurant offers fairly good food choices. One can easily gobble on Kadhai Paneer, Butter Naan, and Dal Makhni; prices of which were the same as everywhere else.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A group of 5 people can easily enjoy their meal under Rs. 800.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This place also offers a boating facility. So for those people who enjoy being surrounded by water bodies, can rent a boat for 30 minutes for Rs. 300 to Rs. 600, depending on the kind of boat you are taking.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Small canopy shed over the Taal<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/morni-hills-and-tikkar-taal-7.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-25533 size-full\" title=\"tikkar taal\" src=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/morni-hills-and-tikkar-taal-7.jpg\" alt=\"tikkar taal\" width=\"800\" height=\"1067\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/morni-hills-and-tikkar-taal-7.jpg 800w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/morni-hills-and-tikkar-taal-7-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/morni-hills-and-tikkar-taal-7-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/morni-hills-and-tikkar-taal-7-585x780.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Boating scenes on the lake<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/morni-hills-and-tikkar-taal-6.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-25532\" src=\"http:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/morni-hills-and-tikkar-taal-6.jpg\" alt=\"boating in tikkar taal\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/morni-hills-and-tikkar-taal-6.jpg 800w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/morni-hills-and-tikkar-taal-6-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/morni-hills-and-tikkar-taal-6-200x150.jpg 200w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/morni-hills-and-tikkar-taal-6-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/morni-hills-and-tikkar-taal-6-585x439.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Morni_Fort\"><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Morni Fort<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Before you get to marvel at the serenity of Tikkar Taal, appreciating Morni Fort is also a great idea.
