About Lansdowne Tourism
Serene and unspoilt, Lansdowne is a hill station in the secluded reaches of Uttaranchal.
Surrounded by beautiful oak, silver fir, spruce, bamboo and pine
forests, it is a summer getaway for nature lovers and romantics. This
hilly town was established as a British cantonment in 1887 and named in
honour of the Earl of Lansdowne, the Viceroy of India (1888-1894). Now
it is the headquarters of the famous Garhwal Rifles of the Indian Army.
You won't find much of popular tourism here and it is as if the town
intends to preserve its local charm and sanctity.

Just like other hill stations of north India, Lansdowne has a number of

I am a resident of noida and i am planning to visit lansdowne with a friend who would be joining me from mumbai during diwali. On 24th i want to take the bus to Kotdwar. So i want to know will i get the bus from ISBT directly to lansdowne or only to kotdwar. Can u tell me abt the bus timings and the time it'l take to reach. As we have a very limited days and time, we really dont want to spend too much on travelling. As we are budget travellers, i would be grateful if you also provide some accomodation information there.
Looking forward to an early reply.
Warm Regards
