Delhi to Binsar by Tempo Traveller

Delhi to Binsar by tempo traveller — your complete travel guide

Planning a group trip from Delhi to Binsar? Whether you're heading out with family, friends, or colleagues, hiring a tempo traveller is hands-down the smartest way to travel. At Uttarakhand Tempo Traveller, we've spent years perfecting the Delhi to Binsar route — we know every highway stretch, every mountain bend, the best chai stops, and exactly when to leave Delhi to make the most of your trip.

The journey from Delhi to Binsar covers approximately 395 km and typically takes 9-10 hours, depending on traffic, weather, and seasonal road conditions. The Delhi to Binsar drive takes you deep into the Kumaon hills. After the familiar highway to Haldwani and the mountain road through Almora, the final 30 km to Binsar is a narrow road through dense oak and rhododendron forests. It's like driving into another world — the forests get thicker, the air gets cleaner, and civilisation fades away. This final stretch is what makes Binsar special.
