It is situated at a High Himalayan Buddhist Settlement
known elevation (8,800 ft./2,800 m). Perhaps, it is
only a Deluxe & Luxury resort in the world from
where giant Himalayan peaks can be admired safely
and yet at such close proximity. This deluxe resort
is the only "green resort" in Nepal. About
500 feet below the resort is the Kali Gandaki river
which flows downstream to form the deepest gorge in
the world (Guinness Book of World Records). The most
breathtaking sight of all is right in front of the
resort. Every room offers unparalleled view of the
majestic Nilgiri mountain (7061 m). If you love the
mountains and are also environmentally conscious about
their preservation, then this is the holiday you've
been dreaming about. A holiday in Jomsom will relieve
your mind of tensions, cleanse your soul and revitalize
your body! Rustic and starkly built to blend in with
the local ambience, JMR is an architectural wonder.
Every piece of the resort, except the stones, was
flown to the location from Kathmandu and Pokhara.
From coffee tables to TV sets, every single piece
was painstakingly put into place to create this wonder.
Offering all modern facilities in a land that seems
to have been captured in a time capsule, Jomsom Mountain
Resort is truly a Himalayan oasis.
