Ahmedabad - Landour - Dehradun - Ahmedabad : Route Queries

Planning to drive from Ahmedabad to Landour later in November. I'll be depending on my XUV 500.

I want to reach Panipat on first night but if there is traffic on the way, I might stay at Neemrana. Is that a good idea?

Should I take Western Peripheral Expressway or the bypass via Rewari; to bypass Delhi?

Any other tips for this route?

Go through some of these threads

Unless you have a specific reason of going to Panipat, you can turn from Sonipat towards Baraut- Budhana- Muzzafarnagar. But, I am not sure about the road conditions from Sonipat onwards until Muzzafarngar (past it 4 land highway). It used to be some very bad road before but you will have similar problems if you go via Panipat- Shamli. Definitely not after sunset. Current situation between Sonipat and Panipat is also not good, so if you must come to Panipat, better use the Bawal- Hissar- Panipat highway.

As an alternate, google shows this route via Karnal using the Saharanpur and I will also pick this instead of Panipat-Shamli route.

A totally alternate route can be via Pali-Jodhpur-Karnal and if I don't have any work in Panipat, will be my pick of all the routes. There are some threads with very positive experiences on this road.

We drove to HP and back just over 2 weeks back from A'Bad. I would avoid the WPH - though it depends on the time of day (or night) you cross it. We took the Rewari route.

For other details check out here: (A drive to the Valley of the Gods - Kullu and Kangra in Himachal Pradesh) and here: (A drive to the Valley of the Gods : In a Mercedes GLE)

Re: Ahmedabad - Landour - Dehradun - Ahmedabad : Route Queries

I drove from AMD to Nainital in June. The route that I took was as follows:
Day 1. AMD- Gurgaon (~870kms via Pali 5am to 7pm almost non stop except for a lunch break) Stayed at Hotel Fortune in Manesar.
Day 2. Crossed Delhi early in the morning instead of taking the Eastern Peripheral and went onwards on NH 87.

For you I would suggest the same. Stay at Neemrana/ Manesar and reach early next day
