Dehradun to Mussoorie Self Drive Tips (Hairpins, Fog, Parking)

34 km is not the hard part. The hard part is the last 12 km of hairpins and the Sunday evening descent.

Use engine braking. Do not ride the brakes the whole way down. If fog sits on the ridge after 4 pm, slow down and use dipped beams — not hazards as a driving style.

Parking

Mall Road is not your long-stay car park. Use designated stands and walk. A compact SUV is easier than a Fortuner if you insist on self-drive into town. The Mussoorie town page is not the parking note.

Rent the right car

We recommend Creta, Brezza or Dzire. Read the Mussoorie rental page and book on 8445619130.
