In early August more than 100 roads were blocked across the state (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.etvbharat.com\/en\/state\/peak-monsoon-havoc-in-uttarakhand-landslides-block-over-100-roads-heavy-rain-alerts-issued-enn26080508519\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ETV Bharat<\/a>, Aug 2026). On 20 July, a retaining wall collapsed near Kolhukhet and shut the Dehradun\u2013Mussoorie road. It reopened to light vehicles the next morning (<a href=\"https:\/\/theprint.in\/india\/movement-of-light-vehicles-restored-on-dehradun-mussoorie-road\/2992256\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ThePrint<\/a>, Jul 2026). The rains have usually eased by October, but check the weather and road updates the night before you drive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Emergency helplines in Uttarakhand: 112 (all emergencies), 1070 (State Emergency Operations Centre, toll-free), 0135-2710334 and 0135-2710335 (<a href=\"https:\/\/usdma.uk.gov.in\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">USDMA<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The urge to travel is ever increasing, especially if you\u2019re living in a metropolitan city like Delhi. For many living here, running to the Himalayas, or at least the foothills, is one of the the perfect getaways with friends and family, given how close it is to the city. Among the many places to visit in North India, Mussoorie is one such hill station in India where time slows down, the air feels lighter, and every moment invites you to breathe a little deeper. And you know the best part is the journey itself. Travelling from Delhi to Mussoorie by road, air, train or bus, is not just scenic, it\u2019s deeply refreshing. It gives you space to think, appreciate nature, and reconnect with yourself and those around you. If that sounds like your kind of trip, here\u2019s everything you need to know about hitting the road from Delhi to Mussoorie. And if you\u2019re still unsure, read on. You just might change your mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>TL;DR:<\/strong> The fastest way from Delhi to Mussoorie is now the 210 km Delhi\u2013Dehradun Expressway, which opened on 14 April 2026, followed by the 33 km climb from Dehradun. Plan on 4 to 5 hours door to door. Car tolls on the expressway are about \u20b9675 one way. If you want ghats and riverside caf\u00e9s along the way, take the Haridwar\u2013Rishikesh route instead.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_88

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mussoorie, located in the Garhwal Himalayas, is one of the most popular tourist spots in Uttarakhand. Reaching here from Delhi is easy as you can drive, take a bus, take a flight, or rent a car, depending on your travel style. But it\u2019s the road trip where the magic begins. The Delhi to Mussoorie distance by car is around 296 to 340 km, depending on the route. Along the way, you\u2019ll pass charming towns, rolling fields, and gradually, the mighty Himalayas come into view. It\u2019s a drive that offers both adventure and calm, which is perfect for those looking to breathe a little deeper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"what-is-the-best-route-from-delhi-to-mussoorie-by-car\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_the_Best_Route_from_Delhi_to_Mussoorie_by_car\"><\/span><strong>What is the Best Route from Delhi to Mussoorie by car?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There\u2019s not just one but three main routes you can take when travelling from Delhi to Mussoorie by road, and each one comes with its own set of scenic highlights, highway pitstops, and time-saving hacks. The best part? With minimal traffic and an early start, you can reach Mussoorie in under 7 hours. The roads are smooth, well-marked, and perfect for a relaxed yet refreshing drive into the hills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"route-1-delhi-haridwar-rishikesh-dehradun-mussoorie\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Route_1_Delhi_%E2%80%93_Haridwar_%E2%80%93_Rishikesh_%E2%80%93_Dehradun_%E2%80%93_Mussoorie\"><\/span><strong>Route 1: Delhi \u2013 Haridwar \u2013 Rishikesh \u2013 Dehradun \u2013 Mussoorie<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"494\" data-id=\"24578\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/delhi-to-mussoorie-by-road-1024x494.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24578\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/delhi-to-mussoorie-by-road-1024x494.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/delhi-to-mussoorie-by-road-300x145.png 300w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/delhi-to-mussoorie-by-road-768x371.png 768w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/delhi-to-mussoorie-by-road-1536x741.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/delhi-to-mussoorie-by-road-370x179.png 370w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/delhi-to-mussoorie-by-road-770x372.png 770w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/delhi-to-mussoorie-by-road-150x72.png 150w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/delhi-to-mussoorie-by-road.png 1747w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is arguably the most scenic and soulful route from Delhi to Mussoorie by car, especially for those who enjoy blending road trips with spiritual and cultural pitstops. If you&#8217;re taking the scenic route, you&#8217;ll mostly drive along the NH 334 and later on through the NH7. You\u2019ll start from Delhi and drive towards Haridwar, where the Ganges flows in full glory. It\u2019s worth a stop, even if just to stretch your legs by the ghats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From there, make your way to Rishikesh, a town that\u2019s buzzing with yoga centres, riverside caf\u00e9s, and that unmistakable mountain energy. After Rishikesh, head to Dehradun, Uttarakhand\u2019s capital, before finally climbing up to Mussoorie, with winding roads that offer stunning views of the Garhwal Himalayas. And if you&#8217;re not in a rush and love discovering new places along the way, this Delhi to Mussoorie route is a must.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"route-2nbspdelhi-meerut-muzaffarnagar-haridwar-dehradun-mussoorie\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Route_2_Delhi_%E2%80%94_Meerut_%E2%80%94_Muzaffarnagar_%E2%80%94Haridwar_%E2%80%94_Dehradun_%E2%80%94_Mussoorie\"><\/span><strong>Route 2: Delhi \u2014 Meerut \u2014 Muzaffarnagar \u2014Haridwar \u2014 Dehradun \u2014 Mussoorie<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"511\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/image-28-1024x511.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24579\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/image-28-1024x511.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/image-28-300x150.png 300w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/image-28-768x384.png 768w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/image-28-1536x767.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/image-28-370x185.png 370w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/image-28-770x385.png 770w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/image-28-150x75.png 150w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/image-28.png 1726w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, if you\u2019re looking for a route that\u2019s a bit quicker but still want to pass through the scenic plains of Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand, this one\u2019s for you. From Delhi, drive towards Meerut via the Delhi-Meerut Expressway\u2014a newly built, wide stretch that makes the first part of your journey incredibly smooth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Continue through Muzaffarnagar and onto Haridwar, from where the route merges with Route 1. This route saves you some time by skipping Rishikesh, but still allows you to enjoy the scenic Haridwar to Dehradun stretch, eventually leading you up to Mussoorie. This is a great pick if you want to cut down on travel time without compromising on views and comfort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"route-3nbspdelhi-sonipat-shamli-saharanpur-dehradun-mussoorie\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Route_3_Delhi_%E2%80%94_Sonipat_%E2%80%94_Shamli_%E2%80%94_Saharanpur_%E2%80%94_Dehradun_%E2%80%94_Mussoorie\"><\/span><strong>Route 3: Delhi \u2014 Sonipat \u2014 Shamli \u2014 Saharanpur \u2014 Dehradun \u2014 Mussoorie<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"504\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/image-29-1024x504.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24580\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/image-29-1024x504.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/image-29-300x148.png 300w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/image-29-768x378.png 768w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/image-29-1536x756.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/image-29-370x182.png 370w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/image-29-770x379.png 770w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/image-29-150x74.png 150w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/image-29.png 1744w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For those looking for a less crowded, more offbeat drive, this route through Sonipat, Shamli, and Saharanpur offers a peaceful countryside charm. It\u2019s not the most popular choice, which works in your favour if you prefer quieter roads and fewer pitstops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From Delhi, drive past Sonipat, then continue towards Shamli, a town surrounded by sugarcane fields, and on to Saharanpur, known for its woodwork and local craftsmanship. Eventually, you\u2019ll merge onto the Dehradun highway, and from there, it\u2019s a beautiful uphill drive to Mussoorie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While this route may take a bit longer due to a few narrow stretches and less-developed highway zones, it\u2019s perfect for those seeking a calm, uninterrupted journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 id=\"route-4-delhi-baghpat-shamli-saharanpur-dehradun-mussoorie-delhidehradun-expressway\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Route 4: <strong>Delhi \u2013 Baghpat \u2013 Shamli \u2013 Saharanpur \u2013 Dehradun \u2013 Mussoorie (Delhi\u2013Dehradun Expressway)<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is now the fastest way into the hills. The expressway (NH-709B) starts at Akshardham and runs past Baghpat, Baraut, Shamli and the Saharanpur bypass before dropping into Dehradun. The whole corridor was inaugurated on 14 April 2026. When UTC tested a bus on it, the run from Delhi&#8217;s ISBT to Dehradun&#8217;s ISBT took 2 hours 55 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The last stretch is the best part. The road rises onto an elevated wildlife corridor, about 12 km long, built so elephants and leopards can cross underneath through the Rajaji forest belt. Then it passes through the 340 m Datkali tunnel before Dehradun. The speed limit is 100 km\/h for cars, and ANPR cameras issue challans automatically. From Dehradun, it&#8217;s about 33 km uphill to Mussoorie via Kuthal Gate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For a full stop-by-stop breakdown, see our guide to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/delhi-to-dehradun-new-expressway-2026-route-time-toll-weekend-trip-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">new Delhi\u2013Dehradun Expressway<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"delhi-to-mussoorie-by-bus\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Delhi_to_Mussoorie_by_Bus\"><\/span><strong>Delhi to Mussoorie by Bus<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&#8217;re a budget traveller, travelling from Delhi to Mussoorie bus is both economical and convenient. The most popular option is the Delhi to Mussoorie Volvo bus, offering comfortable seating and overnight services. The journey takes around 8 to 9 hours, depending on traffic and road conditions. Volvo bus ticket prices generally start from Rs. 700, with various options based on your budget and preferences. Buses depart from ISBT Kashmiri Gate, Sarai Kale Khan ISBT, and Majnu Ka Tila, while in Mussoorie, key stops include the Library Bus Stand and Mussoorie Bus Ticket Centre. A reliable and scenic ride without burning a hole in your pocket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When the expressway opened, Uttarakhand Transport Corporation cut its Delhi\u2013Dehradun fares in April 2026 to \u20b9709 for Volvo, \u20b9557 for AC and \u20b9355 for ordinary buses. The ride now takes about 3 hours. From Dehradun ISBT, local buses and shared taxis run up to Mussoorie&#8217;s Library and Picture Palace stops. That&#8217;s often quicker than a direct 7 to 8 hour bus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"delhi-to-mussoorie-by-train-or-flight\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Delhi_to_Mussoorie_by_Train_or_Flight\"><\/span><strong>Delhi to Mussoorie by Train or Flight<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The fastest train is the Vande Bharat Express (22457). It leaves Anand Vihar Terminal at 5:50 PM and reaches Dehradun at 10:35 PM, a 4-hour-45-minute run with stops at Meerut, Saharanpur and Haridwar. If you&#8217;d rather travel in the morning, the Dehradun Shatabdi (12017) leaves New Delhi at 6:45 AM and arrives at 12:55 PM. Check the running days on IRCTC before booking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Flights from Delhi to Dehradun&#8217;s Jolly Grant Airport take under an hour. From the airport, Mussoorie is about 55 to 60 km, or roughly 2 hours by taxi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"how-much-does-a-delhi-to-mussoorie-road-trip-cost-in-tolls\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_much_does_a_Delhi_to_Mussoorie_road_trip_cost_in_tolls\"><\/span><strong>How much does a Delhi to Mussoorie road trip cost in tolls?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Driving the expressway costs about \u20b9675 in tolls one way, or about \u20b91,010 for a return within 24 hours. Out-of-state cars also pay Uttarakhand&#8217;s green cess of \u20b940 a day. It&#8217;s deducted automatically from your FASTag at the border and has been collected since January 2026. Electric vehicles, CNG vehicles and two-wheelers are exempt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you drive to the hills often, look at the NHAI FASTag Annual Pass. It costs \u20b93,075 for FY 2026-27 and covers 200 toll crossings or one year. It doesn&#8217;t cover the green cess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mussoorie&#8217;s traffic rules can catch first-timers out:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Mall Road closes to vehicles from 4:00 PM to 10:30 PM daily.<\/strong> If your stay is near Mall Road, try to check in before 4 PM.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>On busy weekends, Dehradun Police runs a diversion plan.<\/strong> When the main Kuthal Gate road fills up, traffic is sent via Kimadi\u2013Hathipaon, with parking at King Craig and local taxis onward into town.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Leave Dehradun before 8 AM on a Saturday.<\/strong> It makes the biggest difference to how your first day goes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"what-is-the-best-time-to-visit-mussoorie\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_the_Best_Time_to_Visit_Mussoorie\"><\/span><strong>What is the Best Time to Visit Mussoorie?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1023\" height=\"685\" data-id=\"24585\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/5071021011_ab46c15754_b.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24585\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/5071021011_ab46c15754_b.jpg 1023w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/5071021011_ab46c15754_b-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/5071021011_ab46c15754_b-768x514.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/5071021011_ab46c15754_b-370x248.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/5071021011_ab46c15754_b-770x516.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/5071021011_ab46c15754_b-150x100.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1023px) 100vw, 1023px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image credits: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/vran\/\">Michael Scalet<\/a> via Flickr<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mussoorie is truly a year-round destination, but the best time to visit Mussoorie depends entirely on the kind of experience you&#8217;re after. Summer (March to June) is ideal for a road trip to Mussoorie because the temperatures here is between 14\u00b0C and 26\u00b0C, it\u2019s a cool, green escape from Delhi\u2019s sweltering heat. It\u2019s perfect for trekking, sightseeing, and outdoor adventures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Monsoon (July to September) turns Mussoorie into a misty wonderland, with lush landscapes and waterfalls. But be cautious cause landslides and slippery roads can make travel tricky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">October and November are underrated. The air is washed clean after the rains, the skies are clear, and on a good morning you&#8217;ll see the snow peaks from Lal Tibba. If you&#8217;re coming in winter, the Mussoorie Winterline Carnival usually runs in the last week of December; the 2025 edition was held from 24 to 29 December.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Winter (December to February) is magical, especially for snow lovers. With temperatures dropping to -1\u00b0C, it&#8217;s perfect for those chasing snowfall and cosy winter stays. Each season offers something special and as mentioned, Mussoorie never goes out of style.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"places-to-visit-while-on-a-delhi-to-mussoorie-trip\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Places_to_Visit_while_on_a_Delhi_to_Mussoorie_Trip\"><\/span><strong>Places to Visit while on a Delhi to Mussoorie Trip<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re planning a Delhi to Mussoorie road trip, you\u2019re in for a ride filled with scenic pitstops, hill station charm, and picture-perfect moments!

The panoramic views of the Himalayas are breathtaking, especially at sunset.

Get there early, before the day-trippers do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"landour-and-camels-back-road\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Landour_and_Camels_Back_Road\"><\/span><strong>Landour and Camel&#8217;s Back Road<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lal Tibba gets the views, but Landour gets the mood. Walk the loop past Char Dukan for pancakes and chai, then stop by St Paul&#8217;s Church and the old cantonment cottages. In the afternoon, head to Camel&#8217;s Back Road, a quiet 3 km walk named for a rock formation shaped like a camel&#8217;s hump. It&#8217;s one of Mussoorie&#8217;s best sunset walks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"municipal-garden\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Municipal_Garden\"><\/span><strong>Municipal Garden<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also known as Company Garden, this one is a hit with families.

Famous for yoga, river rafting, and the iconic Laxman Jhula, it\u2019s got just the right amount of thrill and spiritual vibe to energise your trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One thing has changed: Laxman Jhula has been closed to visitors since April 2022, and a new bridge, Bajrang Setu, has gone up at the same spot (see our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/bajrang_setu_rishikesh_2026_indias_first_glass_suspension_bridge_opening_date_ticket_how_to_visit\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bajrang Setu guide<\/a>).

The joy of open roads, the roadside chai breaks, the sudden mountain views, and that moment when the air gets cooler and you know you\u2019re close. Whether it\u2019s the charm of Mall Road, the splash at Kempty Falls, or the calm of Lal Tibba, Mussoorie has a way of making you slow down and smile.

Buses leave from ISBT Kashmiri Gate, Sarai Kale Khan, and Majnu Ka Tila, and drop you at Mussoorie Bus Stand near the town centre. The journey usually takes 8\u20139 hours.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1749544348401\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">How do I go to Mussoorie from Rishikesh?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Rishikesh to Mussoorie is about 66 km and takes around 2 hours by road. You can take two scenic routes; one is via Dehradun (NH7\u2013SH34) and the other is via Narendra Nagar (NH7\u2013SH12). Both offer hilly roads and lovely views.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1749544349917\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Which is the best time to visit Mussoorie?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">The best time to visit Mussoorie is during summer (April to June) when the weather is cool and perfect for sightseeing. But if you love snow, December to February is ideal for a magical, wintery escape.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1749544351532\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">How are the roads to Mussoorie from Delhi?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">The Delhi to Mussoorie road conditions are generally good and well-maintained. You\u2019ll be travelling via national highways with smooth routes, though it\u2019s always wise to check traffic and weather updates before your journey.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1749547458646\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">How much is the toll tax from Delhi to Mussoorie?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">The toll tax from Delhi to Mussoorie ranges between \u20b9500\u2013\u20b9600, depending on the route you take. Carry some cash or use FASTag for easy passage.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1790859508011\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>Is the Delhi\u2013Dehradun Expressway open?<\/strong><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes. The whole 210 km Delhi\u2013Dehradun Expressway was inaugurated on 14 April 2026. It runs from Akshardham via Baghpat, Shamli and Saharanpur to Dehradun and has cut the drive to about 2.5 to 3 hours. From Dehradun, Mussoorie is another 33 km, so plan on 4 to 5 hours from Delhi in total.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1790859516731\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>How long does it take to drive from Delhi to Mussoorie?<\/strong><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Via the expressway, it&#8217;s about 245 km and 4 to 5 hours, depending on weekend traffic on the Dehradun\u2013Mussoorie climb. The scenic route through Haridwar and Rishikesh is 300 to 340 km and takes 7 hours or more. If you&#8217;re on the scenic route, an overnight stop in Rishikesh makes the drive more relaxed.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1790859530785\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>Do I have to pay green cess to enter Uttarakhand by car?<\/strong><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes. Private cars registered outside Uttarakhand pay a green cess of \u20b940 a day. Since January 2026 it has been deducted automatically from your FASTag by ANPR cameras at the state border. Electric vehicles, CNG vehicles and two-wheelers are exempt. The cess is separate from highway tolls, and the FASTag Annual Pass doesn&#8217;t cover it.<\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cover Image Credits: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/people\/8306673@N02\">Paul Hamilton<\/a> via Wikimedia <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Travel Advisory \u2013 October 2026:The monsoon hit Uttarakhand&#8217;s hill roads hard this year.
