About the trip

Haridwar is one of the seven holiest cities for Hindus, where the Ganga leaves the hills and enters the plains. Pilgrims come for a dip at Har Ki Pauri, the evening aarti and temples on the surrounding hills. It is also the starting point for Rishikesh and the Char Dham yatra. From Delhi the road runs through Meerut and Roorkee on the upper Ganga plain.

What to see in Haridwar

On the road

Follow NH 334 via Meerut, Muzaffarnagar and Roorkee, with dhabas at Khatauli. Leave very early; the new Delhi–Meerut expressway saves time out of the city.
