Delhi to Munsiyari

aparnaah · May 4th, 2007, 13:02

Hi people!!!

I and my friends are planning a road trip (by car) for a week from Delhi to Munsiyari by the end of June.

I have to book the KMVN Guest houses in advance so i need to ask few things from the experts here!!

1st day, I have decided to go straight to Jageshwar and stay there for the nite.

2nd day, Jageshwar-Almora- Bageshwar-Chaukori
Will be staying there for 2 days.

4th day, Chaukori to Munsiyari
2 more days there

Now on the 6th day, coming back from munsiyari, i cant go straight to Delhi, so which is a good place where i can stay for one day?

Arnd 5-6 hrs away from Munsiyari?

Is Pithoragarh an option?
or small places like, didihat, gangolihat?
Im confused!!

Please help!!

Regards
APARNA

You may consider Binsar sanctuary. KMVN has a lodge in side the sanctuary.
Since you will be having your car with you do visit the underground caves of Patal Bhuvaneshwar.

If you go to Pithoragarh, then (I am not sure) you may find it shorter to go via Lohaghat to Delhi. Maybe you can return that way.

Get hold of a Nest & Wings map of Uttaranchal, available in any good bookshop. Then figure out the route u want to take, there are 2 or 3 poss - depends what u want to do. The booklet with the map also gives u routes and distances, not always accurate, but useful enough to plan with. U will find that the map also gives the location of KMVN/GMVN RHs. On hill-roads, work with an average of 30 kmph and that will give u a good idea of where u'll be at what time. All the places u mentioned on the way back are ok to stay at - check the type/category of rooms available from KMVN's website, the smaller places don't always have the deluxe or semi-deluxe rooms. Pithoragarh offers u the option of driving to Jhulaghat if u want, 50 km off-track on the India-Nepal border. There's a bridge going across the river to Nepal, therefore the "jhula". I've heard it's nice there, haven't been yet. Once u've studied the map, come back with more questions if u need. Whatever route u choose, u can't go wrong, therefore it's best u and your friends decide for yourselves. Altho, I do feel Delhi to Jageshwar is a very long drive in one day. I know people do it, I wudn't. But that's just me.
