Weekend Getaways from Delhi

Delhi-NCR is perfectly located for a traveler trying to find weekend getaways in Northern or Central India. This is often why it attracts tons of tourists, who visit Delhi also as places around Delhi. The destinations are attractive and variegated - starting from Hill Stations to Resorts to Picnic Spots.

Among the places within 200 - 300 km from Delhi-NCR, the popular ones include Jaipur, Agra, Shimla, Rishikesh, Kasauli, Mussoorie, Mathura, etc. These places take 1-2 day(s) and bring an ideal weekend getaway from Delhi NCR. The lesser-known places to visit near Delhi-NCR is the quaint hill-stations like Lansdowne, Mukteshwar, Kanatal and treks like Kheerganga, Triund, Nag Tibba, and Parashar lake. There are amazing wildlife sanctuaries on the brink of Delhi-NCR just like the ones at Ranthambore, Bharatpur, Sariska and Corbett park.

Tourist Places near Delhi like Rishikesh for bungee jumping, Devprayag for foam rafting, Gulmarg and Auli for skiing, Bir-Billing for paragliding, Jaisalmer for desert safaris or maybe the Bike Ride to Agra on the Yamuna Expressway are a couple of of the various choices that adventure enthusiasts have. Kasar Devi, Mcleodganj, Old Manali and Kasol on the opposite hand, are more lucrative destinations for people that want to only relax. Amazing Parathas in Murthal and therefore the Heritage Hotel in Neemrana are favorites among college friends who usually search for a budget-friendly weekend getaway from Delhi-NCR.

Families preferring visiting the tourist destinations near Delhi-NCR are sure to visit the Taj Mahal in Agra, the banks of Ganges in Varanasi, the gorgeous lakes in Udaipur, the forts and palaces of Rajasthan, the Wagah Border and Golden Temple in Amritsar and the Char Dham in Uttarakhand, to name a few.
