Shimla to Kullu-5.0 hours--

Also known as the “Valley of Gods”, Kullu is a popular tourist destination located in the mystical land of Himachal Pradesh. One can still find a number of offbeat natural places in Kullu. The ideal time to visit this place is in the month of May, as travelers also get to be a part of the famous Doongri Fair which is celebrated with great fervor here.

If travelling from Shimla to Kullu, it is important to know the following information about the distance between shimla and kullu and the various modes of transport available.

The airport is operated by the Airports Authority of India and has a single runway. One can take a flight from SLV to Indira Gandhi International Airport (DEL) or Chandigarh International Airport to travel to Kullu as there are no direct flights operating between the two cities.

 

Shimla To Kullu By Train: As there are no direct trains to travel from Shimla to Kullu, travelers can take a train till Chandigarh or Delhi and then travel to Jogindernagar Railway Station which happens to be the nearest railway station to Kullu, which is located at a distance of 125 km from the place.  

Train travel is not the most convenient option when considering the distance between shimla and kullu, as it involves multiple transfers.

    Tarun Goyal

    Rajasthan

    Tarun's 5 days trip to Kullu

    Our recent experience with the agency was mixed due to several issues: Driver working hours – There was no clear mention of the driver’s working timings in the itinerary or booking details. This led to confusion and inconvenience during the trip. According to him his timings were from 6 am to 8 pm
    which we were not informed at the timing of booking or later also. Chandigarh itinerary – The planned schedule for Chandigarh was unrealistic and could not be followed as promised. I had even pointed out the same but yet was told that those activities were possible. This reflects poor planning and lack of practical consideration for travel time and feasibility. Hotel selection – On a positive note, the hotels chosen were well-selected and provided a comfortable stay, which was the highlight of the trip.
