Bakola is a small village completely embedded in the remote high hills of the Himalayas. It is surrounded by terrace fields and hills.

There is a Durga-Devi Mandir 1½ km from the School. Close to the School, in the Narasimha Mandir, Lord Narasimha, an Avatara of Lord Vishnu, who is in a half-man-half-lion form, is worshipped. According to scriptures, Lord Narasimha manifests six attributes of God - strength, wealth, renunciation, splendour, energy and wisdom.

Omkarananda Saraswati Shishu Mandir, Bakola, is located in the village and has a beautiful brown-stone building that is well maintained and clean. The view from the School is spectacular and the famous snow-capped Himalayan peak "Chaukhamba" can be seen from here. The School children from Nursery to Classes V are coming from within the radius of 1 km. Besides the formal core curriculum, they also learn Garhwali and Hindi songs, folk dances and participate in sports every morning.
