Dhanaulti Tourism

Take the first step to getting there!

What makes Dhanaulti a must-visit destination?

Dhanaulti is a sleepy, little town that sits on the Chamba-Mussoorie road, at a staggering height of 2,250 metres above sea level. Dhanaulti’s elevation  means that you can enjoy breathtaking views of the surrounding Himalayas from almost any point and the weather remains pleasantly cool at almost all times. The landscape of the place is defined by virgin forests with towering trees of deodars, oaks and rhododendrons. A short walk away from the town centre is sure to lead you to quaint meadows, dense jungles and gurgling streams.

Albeit small, Dhanaulti has a strong cultural presence and you will be able to spot locals wearing traditional clothings and headgear. Here, you can enjoy traditional garhwali food and buy local hand-made goods and souvenirs. The place is also dotted with several temples and forts that date back to different eras in history and are a great way of finding more about the Dhanaulti and its place in the pages of history. Dhanaulti is dotted with several resorts and camping sites which offer a plethora of accommodation options. When here, you can enjoy the mesmerizing views of the forest from the window of a luxury resort or choose to sleep under the stars in a tent.

There are several places that offer adventure activities that take you skywalking through the peaks, trekking in the forests, climbing mountain faces and sledding down slopes! You can also try your hand at ziplining, biking or rappelling!  If you are not much of an adventure enthusiast, you can spend your time in Dhanaulti enjoying spa treatments, playing golf, reading books while lazing on a hammock or taking leisurely strolls through jungle roads. Dhanaulti also has potato farms that stretch for miles where you can go horse riding!  Apart from these, the apple orchards at Dhanaulti grow a variety of apples and you can spend an entire day walking through these orchards, apple-picking and enjoying delicious apple-based recipes.

Really an ideal location for ensuring absolute peace of mind and soul is Mussoorie. Visited some of the famous places like Tapkeshwar temple, Robber’s cave, Malsi deer park, and the mindrolling monastery. Also didn’t miss the chance to check out the various items on display in the famous Bazar Paltan Bazar. We had a mouth-watering breakfast back in the hotel and started our way to get transferred to Mussoorie and after resting up a bit, headed out for some sight-seeing and the famous mall-road visit. The best view we came across is during the ropeway ride to gun hill point.

Booked: Day Trip to Dhanaulti from Dehradun

It was really amazing to cover Dhanaulti from Dehradun and the best part about the trip was it was just a day trip. We need not have to book a stay at Dhanaulti and have to face the hassle of transferring our luggage from one hotel to another.

Booked: Haridwar to Dhanaulti Transfers

Booking with Thrillophilia always turns out to be the best option for us and we get additional discounts on booking too. The car was well-maintained with a friendly driver who helped us with the luggage too. We enjoyed this 3-hours drive and saw some beautiful scenery too.

The trip was awesome fun and we had the best thrilling experience at Kaundia Forest. The level of enjoyment we had here is not measurable at all.
