How To Reach Dharamshala

With tourists visiting from every corner of the world, Dharamshala has been a personal favorite of thousands of backpackers. Dharamshala is also known to be the second winter capital of India. If you are planning a trip to Dharamshala, you would surely want to know how to reach Dharamshala. Reaching Dharamshala is not a hassle as this serene hill city enjoys excellent connectivity with neighboring states through various means of transport.

The following information will help you on how to go Dharamshala via modes of transport available:-

Location: Dharamshala is a city in district Kangra, Himachal Pradesh, and a municipal corporation situated in Kangra Valley of Dhauladhars.

By Air

The nearest domestic airport to Dharamshala is the Gaggal Airport also known as the Kangra Airport, which is located at a distance of 15 km from Dharamshala. Daily flights connect the airport to a number of cities in India including the capital. You can book a cab or a taxi to go to Dharamshala from the Gaggal airport which is a mere half an hour journey to reach Dharamshala.For tourists coming from other countries, you can take a flight to Indira Gandhi International Airport in Delhi. From there, you can either opt for a bus, cab (490 km with a 10-11 hours journey) or take another flight from IGI Airport to Gaggal Airport and reach Dharamshala similarly as above.

By Train

Dharamshala does not have a railway station of its own. To reach Dharamshala by railways you have to get down at the nearest railway station to Dharamshala which is Pathankot railway station in Punjab, about 86 km from the city of Dharamshala. You can take a cab from the station to reach Dharamshala or a bus from the Pathankot Bus Stand towards McLeodganj which should take about 3 to 4 hours to reach the city Dharamshala.Chandigarh Railway station is also very common among tourists coming via train.

By Road

Being one of the most visited places in India by foreign tourists, this city is accessible via excellent road facility. NH 154 and NH 503 lead to this beautiful city of Dharamshala. A road journey should simply just be as enjoyable and pleasant as Dharamshala itself. You can opt to self drive or hire a cab. Delhi sets the base for people coming from long distances. There are many agencies that provide vehicle on rent and cab services to Dharamshala you can get in Delhi. Also, buses ply daily to Dharamshala from Kashmiri Gate ISBT in Delhi mostly being semi-sleeper Volvos for about 1000 to 1500 INR per seat. This journey takes about 10 to 11 hours.

    Adiga Sudarshan

    Delhi

    Adiga's 4 days trip to Dharamshala

    Very good experience of waiting in Bus Stand for 4 hours. Had informed to book the earliest departure bus to Kashmiri Gate, Delhi. At first 5:30PM bus was booked (in the middle to last row even after requesting to book in first 3 rows). Then the travel agent called and said that they have booked ano
    ther bus at 7:10PM as the bus operator is accepting our tickets. Not sure how they accepted at first and then rejected. Also the 7:10PM bus last stop was at Majnu Ki Tila from where there is no Metro. The travel agent is teaching us that both Kashmiri Gate and Majnu Ki Tila are near. But we don’t have a Metro connection to Majnu Ki Tila and that the cab to Airport cost us Rs. 800 instead of Rs.240 via Metro for 2. Also we had booked a flight to Bengaluru. Would the team refunded the flight ticket if we had not reached the airport early? No memories. Just waiting in Bus Stand for 4 hours

    Sandeep's 6 days trip to Dharamshala

    Diksha was our travel agent from travel triangle who planned the iternairy, she was quite flexible to accept our change requests based on my needs. We were given multiple hotel options to pick and choose, she also followed up the entire tour to check if we are doing fine and enjoying the trip. We e
    njoyed the trip, the hotels were good with good scenic view as demanded. Food was also very good at the hotels. Only issue is tourist places are far off and you spend more time in travelling . I would suggest to book for 6 night and 7 days incase you are planning for Amritsar, Dalhousie and Dharamshala

    Upendrabarnwal's 4 days trip to Dharamshala

    I booked the Kullu Manali trip for my parents as an Anniversary gift through Travel Traingle. It was a 3 Days, 4 Nights trip and cost around Rs. 20,000. The travel agency, Travelpedia, was very accommodative and Mr. Vikas helped with all queries. The Hotel Lotus Inn Rohtang View was spectacular
    , provided for a decent stay with great food. The breakfast and dinner was complementary with the package. The Hotel star was very helpful and ensured me parents faced no problems. The cab driver was also good. Though, he was trying to cut short the trip at times due to bad weather. Despite that, he navigated well through the hilly terrain and scenic places. In the end, I'd definitely recommend you to book through Travel Traingle for your upcoming trips. I too am looking forward to another adventure. My parents had got their luggage locked out mistakenly. The Hotel staff came to the rescue and provided required assistance to unlock it. XD

    We had a great Holiday trip. Very happy with the deal and service provided by Mrs.Neesha Pourh (Travelpedia). Documents and information received were clear and concise.
