From Dwarahat one can also visit Dunagiri (20 km away) which is a part of the mountain brought by Lord Pabandev. From the highway, one can also climb a flight of 500 steps to get to the Durga temple or Paban Maharaj Ashram on the top of a hill. The Ashram provides both fooding and lodging. Moreover, the Ashram also provides a magnificent view of the different peaks of the Himalayas . Ranikhet, Almora and Kaushani are also visible. Other than Almora, from Someswar also (which falls enroute Chowkari- Gowaldam) there are buses available for Dwarahat and Dunagiri.
