    After the monsoon the main road from Kotdwar to Lansdowne is usually cleared by late September, but a quick check with a local taxi driver is wise, especially if you’re arriving after heavy rain. Taxis from Dehradun are plentiful and the drive takes about three hours, so you don’t need to fly into Jolly Grant unless you want a quicker start. If you’re looking for a comfortable stay, Samskara & Samsara is a solid choice near the town centre.
