A touch of Italy

Located in the picturesque town of Craignano on the Shimla-Naldhera highway, the Craignano Nature Park is an Italian-style estate, perched at an elevation of approximately 7,700 feet above sea level, that was established by celebrated Italian confectioner and photographer Chevalier Frederico Peliti, who named the place after his native village in Italy.

Known for its serene beauty and diverse array of activities, the park features a small lake, beautiful picnic spots and a charming treehouse.

Marvel at the water Lift

Stand in awe before the world’s tallest water lift. Its intricate mechanism, designed to transport water uphill, is a marvel of engineering.

For photographers, Craignano is a canvas waiting to be painted. Capture the play of light through leaves, the delicate flutter of butterflies, and the symphony of birdsong. Don’t miss the chance to climb the treehouse for a unique perspective.

Discover a treehouse with a view

Wander through the manicured lawns, where daffodils, hyacinths, asphodels, and celandine bloom in riotous colours. A small flower garden with a Buddha statue completes the picture of bliss.
