Mussoorie is the splendid hill station situated in the Garhwal region of Uttarakhand, North India. The immense climate of Mussoorie every year attracts several tourists to feel it. It’s just 35 km away from the Dehradun district, and the nearest Dehradun railway station is also in Dehradun itself. I have given the complete details about Places to Visit in Mussoorie !!
I live in New Delhi and love to travel on the weekend to explore the tourist places. Mussoorie is also one of the weekend getaways from Delhi, India, and it’s just 280 km from Delhi by the road.
Delhi—-Muradnagar—-Muzzaffar Naggar —-Deoband —–Dehradun —- Mussoorie
After 3 hours’ drive, we had stopped our vehicle at the Cheetal Restaurant for a light breakfast. It is around 90 km from Delhi to Cheetal grand restaurant in khatauli.
Garden of Cheetal Grand Restaurant
Cheetal grand restaurant is a decent stopover between Delhi to Mussoorie’s journey. The restaurant is not only relaxing inside the restaurant. But you can also enjoy the exterior garden area.
What can you eat at the restaurant?
The cheetah grand is quite famous among tourists and local people. Here you can enjoy the south Indian, Chinese, continental and Italian food and the service is also impressive.
After the relaxation at Cheetal Grand, we started to drive to Mussoorie, and I suggested to friends to take one more halt in Dehradun at Robbers cave. It’s a small picnic and a tourist spot in Dehradun city. Where not only local people come to visit but also other state visitors take a look at that place.
Why Robbers cave-in Dehradun?
The place is well known as the Guchhupani by the locals of Dehradun, and the cave received the name robber cave after a popular dacoit Rober in Dehradun.
Rumors in local people of Mussoorie
There is a rumor among the local people that Rober seldom uses this cave for hiding himself from the police, and some people also have believed that it is house lord shiva. I don’t know how much it’s true? If you know something else about it, please let me know in the below comment section.

Heading towards Queen of Hills
Now finally, we had started the drive to Mussoorie, the queen of hills. It was just 35 km from the Robbers cave, and really that moment can’t be forgotten. Because we had planned our trip in July month and that is the monsoon period in every north India.
I had traveled to Mussoorie earlier three times on this journey. But I never enjoyed the rain. But hearing about it from several people who had visited before me. It was about a 35 km hillside drive from Dehradun to Mussoorie, and I could not stop myself from getting off of the car and enjoying the hill station monsoon weather.
Shower of the rain and Greenery
We had stopped the car on the Maggi point, and we had just traveled 15 km for the Mussoorie from Dehradun. I was feeling like heaven on the earth when I saw below from the ridge. Because everything was appearing more gorgeous because of the shower of rain and greenery.
Clouds come and go on the hills
I was swamped capturing the glamorous nature of my eyes and forgot to take a portrait in my camera, and when I opened the shutter of the camera everywhere, visibility was coming down because of clouds. Have a look at the image on my Instagram account and if you like it never forget to follow me.
Finally Reaching to Mussoorie
While having so much fun on the en-route journey from Delhi to Mussoorie. We reached the queen of hills Mussoorie. Our camp was near Gandhi Chowk. Reached around 01:00 Pm
Recommendation:-
Often make the prior booking of the hotel room and camp in Mussoorie. Because here season and the offseason doesn’t work due to the closest places from Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, and Punjab.
