How to reach Uttarakhand from Kolkata?
Uttarakhand is a well-developed tourism state having bus, train, and air transport facilities, Kolkata is about 1600 km from Uttarakhand, below are some ways to get in Uttarakhand from Kolkata.
1- Self Drive by your own vehicle
If you drive 400 km every day and take a halt at every 400 km then it takes 4 days to reach in Uttarakhand, so it is not a good idea and very risky too.
2- By Train
Trains are a well connected and very easy, cheaper and safe way to travel the cities within India. If you are willing to explore the Kumaon region you can search a train for Kathgodam, Lalkuan or Ramnagar station and if you are willing to explore the Garhwal part then you can search a train up to Haridwar, Rishikesh or Dehradun. These are the gateways of Uttarakhand.
