Delhi to Kausani - Route

Country Road · 12th August 2009, 12:12

I am leaving tomorrow morning for Kausani. I have travelled to Nainital etc before.

I usually take the route - Delhi - Hapur - Gajroula - Moradabad - Rampur - Bilaspur - Rudrapur - Haldwani - Kathgodam - Bhimtal - Khairna Bridge - Almora - Gwalakot - Someshwar - Kausani.

Is there a better/shorter route. The streatch from Moradabad to Haldwani is really bad. I want to avoid it.

Please advice. Thanks.

Arjun, check out BCM Touring - I'm sure someone there has done a Kausani trip in the not so distant past, getting that info should be easier.

I think there is another route going through RamNagar

Delhi - Hapur - Gajroula - Moradabad - RamNagar -- Ranikhet -- Kausani

Try this one if its shorter

The route via Ramnagar, Corbett Park and Ranikhet is a good choice, and was in good condition a month ago. If you leave Delhi early morning, you could reach Kausani by late evening. Bear in mind that you will cut across Corbett Park after Ramnagar.

Thanks Suman, simply_sunny001 and hvkumar.

Yup, the route via Kaladhungi is not only a better drive, but it is also shorter.

Thanks guys. Cheers.

Agree with HVKumar on the route (Can anyone dare to disagree anytime with him

?)

I travelled on the same route in my Mar-Apr 2.5 week trip to Kumaon region.

It took 9 hrs from Kasauni to Delhi outskirts.
While going to Kasauni, I went via nainital.

Please note that I hired a car and it was Alto(I will drive down from Hyd next time in my Scorpio).

And this is a more picturusque route. If you are lucky, you might spot some game too..
