Nainital is a beautiful Hill station in the Indian state of Uttrakhand. Nearest major city is New
Delhi. Distance between New Delhi and Nainital is about 299 km approx. And New
Delhi is well connected to Nainital. Tourists from abroad or from other state
of India would have to halt at New Delhi and then proceed for Nainital.
So, basically I am going to tell
you, how to reach Nainital from New Delhi as New Delhi is well connected to
other parts of India as well as to the world.
There are three modes of connectivity:-
·
By Air
·
By Train
·
By Road
Nainital is a hill station so it
is not directly connected by Air and Train to other cities. But these two modes
will get you to the nearest place to Nainital from where you could reach Nainital
easily. It is well connected by Road.
By Air-
Nainital does not have an Airport,
So no direct air connectivity. Nearest domestic airport is Pantnagar Airport, Which is around 68 km away from Nainital and its
a 1 to 2 hours drive to Nainital. Flights
to Pantnagar are not in daily basis so checkout flight schedule before
planning the trip.
Lots of taxi, private cabs and buses run between Pantnagar
Airport and Nainital. So there is no issue from Pantnagar to Nainital. Roads are pretty good so no worries.
Nearest International airport is in New
Delhi (IGI), which is around 299 km away from Nainital.
