Pack Your Bags Now For Your Weekend Getaway Near Delhi

We all need a little ‘me’ time, you need a little ‘you’ time. No matter how much you love your work or your college, you need to get out of there for at least a day or two. We as a generation are working harder than ever for our own future but in all this, we are losing our present somehow. I mean, when was the last time you took a solo or a trip with 3-4 friends to somewhere nice, somewhere serene and beautiful and calm and exciting and exotic? Now, that’s something you need to think about.

So, if you live in Delhi and are a bit motivated by my little pep and emotional talk and want to go somewhere, anywhere for a short weekend trip then this article would be helping you a bit more. I have gathered 5 places that you can explore on a weekend with your friends or on your own. So, just inhale the beauty of travelling and realize how important it is to take a break.

Distance from Delhi: 258 km

Visit the oldest National Park in the country that has one of the most impeccable flora and fauna. The national park houses various species of animals, from world renowned Royal Bengal Tiger to Rhesus Macaques to Sloth Bear. Even if you are not in a mood to go for some animal sightseeing then invest your time in relaxing in the calming atmosphere of the resorts, present over there, that connect you directly to the nature on a deeper level.

2. Rishikesh

We all know someone or someone who knows someone, who has been for an adventurous rafting session in Rishikesh. If you’ve already done it once, then you know how amazing the experience is and if you’ve not done it yet, then what are you waiting for? Start packing.

Mussoorie, also known as, the queen of hills stands true to its name with picturesque landscapes and snow-capped mountains. It is heaven for mountain lovers and a breath of fresh air (literally) for city people.

5. Lansdowne

Britishers selected Lansdowne as their summer house during their rule and you’ll get all the answers to your why, after visiting the place. It still considered to be one of the quietest hill stations that boast of its unspoiled beauty.

These were just few of the destinations that you should cover in your weekend getaways from Delhi and its population, traffic, pollution, noise and overcrowded transportation.
