There are two domestic airports in Uttarakhand. The Jolly Grant Airport (DED) in Dehradun is located 22 kilometres from the city centre. It is served by regular nonstop flights from Delhi, Bangalore, Mumbai, and Chennai. Alliance Air, IndiGo, and Jet Airways provide commercial flights to and from Dehradun. Pantnagar Airport (PGH) serves as a gateway to hill stations like Nainital, Ranikhet, and Almora. The distance between Jim Corbett National Park and Pantnagar Airport is about 120 km.
How to reach Uttarakhand by road:
One of the main reasons to visit the hills in Uttarakhand is the joy that comes from the time spent on the road itself. The state has more than 1,328 km of national highways and 1,543 km of state highways. The Uttarakhand Transport Corporation runs around 1000 buses in and out of the state. Haridwar and Rishikesh are connected to Delhi by NH 34 and NH 7 passes through Dehradun with Badrinath. Highways 109 and 309 interlink Nainital, Almora, and Jim Corbett National Park. The proposed Char Dham Highway will connect all four major pilgrimage sites in Uttarakhand. Taxi rentals are available in all major travel destinations in Uttarakhand.
How to reach Uttarakhand by train:
Reaching Nainital or Dehradun by rail is the cheapest and perhaps the most convenient way to visit. The train station in Kathgodam, 35 km from Nainital, is the last terminus of the North East railways. Kathgodam train station has rail connectivity with Delhi, Dehradun, and Howrah (Kolkata).
