For those who like to go at their own pace travelling from Delhi to Dhanaulti by car is a good experience. Or you can also book a Taxi Service in Delhi for a comfortable and hassle free ride.
The right time to visit is essential in making your Dhanaulti holiday packages more enjoyable. Dhanaulti is best visited from March to June because these months have mild weather and you can counter plenty of blooming green plants. This is the best time for sightseeing, trekking and outdoor activities.
For people who love cold and snow, winter months from December to February are magical with snow all around. But avoid the monsoon season (July to September) as heavy rains can block the roads and make traveling unsafe due to landslides.
