3 Days Delhi to Lansdowne Tour Itinerary

Your journey begins early morning from Delhi, as the highway slowly melts into the winding roads of Uttarakhand. The first pause comes at Siddhabali Temple in Kotdwar, a sacred shrine dedicated to Hanuman Ji, perched above the Khoh river. The chants, the wind, the river’s music—this stop feels like a blessing before the hills.

From here, the road climbs gently into pine and oak forests, where the fragrance of the woods becomes your travel companion. By evening, you arrive in Lansdowne, a town where every corner whispers peace. Check into your hotel, sip a cup of tea on the balcony, and let the silence wrap you.

Day 2: Exploring Lansdowne – The Soul of the Hills

Wake up to the call of birds, the kind you don’t hear in Delhi. After breakfast, the day unfolds like poetry:

Visit Bhulla Tal Lake – a quiet man-made lake where boating feels like floating on time.

Explore the War Memorial at Parade Ground, where history meets honor.

Walk into the St. John’s Church, a colonial-era gem with stained glass windows.

Climb to Tip-in-Top Point, where the horizon stretches into snow-capped Garhwal peaks.

By afternoon, stroll through the tiny market, taste pahadi food, and let the simplicity of the town sink in. In the evening, watch the sun set behind pine silhouettes—it feels like the sky is writing its own shayari.

Day 3: Lansdowne → Delhi

The last morning is always the hardest. You wish you could stop time, but the city calls you back. After breakfast, pack memories into your heart and begin the return drive. On the way down, take one last look at the forests—green prayers etched into mountains. By late evening, you reach Delhi, carrying not just pictures, but peace.
