About Dalhousie
Dalhousie is a quiet colonial hill station spread over five hills, with Khajjiar, the 'mini Switzerland of India', nearby. Most visitors from Punjab drive up via Pathankot. Popular drop points are Khajjiar, Panchpula, Gandhi Chowk and St. John's Church.
Driving up to Dalhousie
The last part of this route runs on mountain roads, so the 195 km take longer than the same distance in the plains, about 5 hrs 45 min in normal traffic. Start early in the morning to reach before dark and to avoid weekend traffic near the hill entry points. Carry a warm layer even in summer. With more than four people or heavy luggage, an SUV like the Maruti Ertiga or Innova Crysta is more comfortable on the climbs.
Which car should you choose?
For up to 4 passengers, the Maruti Dzire at ₹3,000 is the most economical choice. Families of 5 or 6 usually take the Maruti Ertiga (₹3,900), while the Innova Crysta (₹5,100) gives the smoothest ride over 195 km. For extra comfort, the Innova Hycross costs ₹6,300.
