While Dehradun keeps brimming with tourist treasures, there are certain scenic spots that provide the respite that the city chaos simply cannot give you. One such spot is Maldevta. Imagine the kind of painting you used to create back in school, with a stream emanating from a hut, the sun shining bright and hills in the backdrop. Imagine a river, light waves, a peaceful picnic spot and quietude for miles — that's Maldevta for you.
Tucked away in the lush embrace of the Doon Valley, this place is where the air smells like fresh earth after a drizzle. How to reach Maldevta?
As you leave behind the bustle of Dehradun, the roads become narrower, with the noise starting to fade, and the trees a bit taller, welcoming you to reflective solitude.
Whether it's for nature walks, short treks, a family picnic, nature photography or camping under the stars that entice you, this spot teems with beautiful trails and Instagrammable sunsets! Moreover, for the adrenaline junkies, activities like paragliding are also popular in Maldevta.
However, the growing influx of tourists has started to take a toll on this scenic paradise, with plastic waste and litter disrupting its natural charm. And so, now, more than ever, it’s crucial to protect and preserve this haven. Despite these challenges, Maldevta continues to enchant visitors with its raw and unfiltered beauty!
