A quieter and less commercialised neighbourhood of Queen of Hills – Mussoorie, Dhanolti (Dhanaulti) has evolved as one of the top preferred offbeat holiday getaway around Delhi. For years, ‘hill stations’ in India such as Manali, Shimla, Nainital, Mussoorie, Ooty captured the fancy of holiday goers and vacationers, seeking nice long duration ‘summer holidays’. This also gave birth to the concept of peak season and off season around such destinations. However, post liberalisation and the emergence of new India, corporatized, with the younger generation having a deeper pocket and more importantly, a higher consciousness for better lifestyle and a will to try out newer things, the conventional holiday destinations are fast becoming passé. The new generation traveller in India is looking for newer, lesser known destinations. Places that are less cluttered, no honking and pollution, no loud music on roads, beyond cheap shopping and video games. Places that are in midst of nature and peace, with some adrenaline or wellness recreation thrown in.
Dhanaulti
Uttrakhand
North
Dhanaulti is pleasant and agreeable in the summer months, (May, June, July and August) and a light sweat shirt is more than enough to keep you warm. In winters, however, the mercury plummets and occasionally there is a snowfall that caps the tree tops and mountain peaks beautifully. Dhanaulti is very famous for snowfall (Dec-March) and scenic view of Gangotri-Yamunotri Glaciers.
