Hi.....I did this trip last year with my family and basis this the best route would be Mumbai - Nasik - Dhule- Manpur on the Mumbai Agra Highway. Turn Right on to Manpur Lebad Ratlam Chittorgarh Highway. Super roads with little traffic..only down side compared to Mumbai Ahmedabad highway is the quality of eating and staying options till Chittorgarh. Last 10 odd kms before Chiottorgarh is the only bad patch while coming from Manpur Ratlam route.

In case you decide to take Mumbai - Ahd highway...turn off at Vadodara to the Halol - Modassa - Shyamalji route and then turn right to the Udaipur highway. Again a super alternative to completely bypass congested Ahmedabad area.

From Chittorgarh take Bhilwara - Ajmer -Jaipur - Rewari...good roads but comparatively heavy traffic. From Rewari turn left on the Rewari - Rohtak - Panipat highway to completely bypass super congested Delhi. Again a super traffic free four laned highway.

Regds,
Ashish

Hello all
Looks like an old thread but asking about the route again. Did Chandigarh Panipat Jaipur Chittorgarh Udaipur Ahemdabad Mumbai 2 years ago and found the roads ok. Few bad patches.
This year again planning to drive from Chandigarh to Mumbai then to Goa using the same route.
Hope roads are good. Any updates will help me plan better. Thanks in advance

Hi Joybird,
I had driven from Bombay to Srinagar a couple of months ago. Our route was Bombay - Ahmedabad (bypassed) - Udaipur - Chandigarh - Srinagar. We did not enter Jaipur at all. We stopped overnight at Udaipur and Chandigarh and then again at Katra due to a landslide blocking the main highway to Srinagar else would have done the run in 3 days flat. The roads were pretty good throughout - except the last stretch from Katra to Srinagar which was terrible. No real issues to talk about. 14 to 15 hours driving a day split between two of us. SCross 1.6. Minimum halts. The Rajasthan Police were checking for overspeeding but apart from that no problems.
Regards,
SS

Hi planning to do Chandigarh to Goa. Any recommendations?
Chandigarh Panipat bawal jaipur is a great road, from there we are a little confused whether to go through Pune or mumbai.
Which is a better route since Google maps shows a few.

You can go via either, Udaipur- Mumbai should be faster, follow google maps except for below segments

If on Udaipur route don't follow Google, instead take

Kishangarh - Bhilwara - Nathdwara- Udaipur

And for Kishangarh, can go via Hissar to Kishangarh, roads are good and you won't get stuck on tolls instead of taking usual Chandigarh Panipat Bawal Jaipur- Kishangarh.

Well, this post is long overdue from me. I did Indore to Panchkula via Rohtak, starting at about 7.00am and ending at 1.00am next day. I should have halted overnight at Rohtak.

I sold the 320d in Sep 2017 as I had always wanted the petrol version which was unavailable then (Feb 2015). I've bought a 330i M Sport Estoril blue shadow edition now and will drive it from Mumbai to Chandigarh in March. Planning to take the Barauch route to Udaipur for overnight before halting there. Then proceed to Chandigarh via Rohtak, Panipat. Any updates please?

Yes the speedbreakers caught me by surprise! They have since been removed as per the new rules of not having any speed breakers on National highways.

6 laning of highway is going on from Gujarat border to Udaipur. Consider going via My Abu. Rest of the roads are breeze till Chandigarh.

Thanks! You mean Mumbai to Mt. Abu, halt at Mt. Abu, then proceed from there via Pali- Ajmer- Rohtak- Panipat- Chandigarh?

Right. :thumbs up
Till Udaipur there are lots of diversions and speed breakers. We did ahmedabad to Karnal via Udaipur-Ajmer- Rohtak- Panipat just three weeks back.

Ok, I will avoid the Udaipur route.

Have you tried the Mt. Abu route?

Yes, but I have travelled till Mt abu only. Roads are very good from ahmedabad to Mt abu.

You will pass through Abu Road and not Mount Abu which is 30-40 Km/ an hour and half away. Your route should be

Mumbai - Vadodara- Ahmedabad- Palanpur- AbuRoad- Sirohi- Pali- Beawar- Ajmer- Jaipur- Behror- Panipat- Chandigarh

Ok, thanks- I hadn't noticed that.

The challenge is about where to halt for the night. A good hotel that is safe (for the car��) will be needed near the halfway mark.

What time do you plan to leave from Mumbai and how much can you drive in a Day without too much exertion? Will be you be alone or with family? and will this be a one way trip to get the car or you are driving just for holidays in which case, how much time do you have?

I plan to start at about 6 am from Mumbai. I cad drive for about 12 hours with 1 break and in this particular car, will be able to cover Mumbai Mt. Abu and Mt. Abu in 12 hours and 14 hours easily. It's only night driving that is tiring. I'll be alone, and would want a good hotel that is safe. The trip is to get the car over, and enjoy it and the drive! I could do 2 stops if necessary (should have done that last time via Indore, and added a stop at Gurgaon or Rohtak). I would want to avoid going into towns and traffic where the car might get bumped or scratched.
