How to Reach Haridwar

● Located in Uttarakhand, Haridwar is very well connected to other parts of the country and hence you can reach there by trains as well as by road or by air.

● Trains from all major cities and few other small cities in India come to Haridwar.

● If you are coming from Delhi to Haridwar, at least four hours would be required for you to get there by train or if you prefer traveling by road then you would need at least six hours by road.

● Dehradun is the nearest place to Haridwar which is hardly 25 miles away.

The Right Time to Visit Haridwar

● While you may visit this great place anytime you want and feel like, the best time to visit Haridwar is from October to March, because during these months the weather is neither too cool nor very hot.

● Summers are usually very hot here and temperatures cross 40 degrees Celsius. Although you will find that the clean water of the holy Ganga river is really cool and refreshing.

● During the monsoon season, it is not good to take a dip in the Ganges because the currents are strong due to the rain.
