About this run

How we drive it

Bilaspur to Dharamshala is a genuine cross-state run: four and a half hours from Govind Sagar to the Dhauladhar, through Hamirpur and Dehra.

It is also the natural start of the six-temple Devi Darshan circuit. Naina Devi sits above Bilaspur and Chintpurni is on the way north, so a lot of these bookings turn into the full yatra rather than a plain transfer. We will quote either, and you don’t have to add the temples.

The other regular booking here is AIIMS Bilaspur: people coming in for treatment from the Kangra side, or going home afterwards, often at hours when nothing else runs.

One fare for this run, quoted on WhatsApp before you travel. See what's in a Kangra taxi fare.

Once you reach Dharamshala

Three temples in one transfer

Naina Devi, Chintpurni and Jwala Ji all sit on this line. It is effectively half the Devi Darshan done while simply getting from A to B.

AIIMS Bilaspur

We run patient and attendant transfers between AIIMS Bilaspur and Tanda regularly. Say if that is the trip and we plan the halts around it.

Four and a half hours

It is a long transfer for the distance because the road crosses the grain of the hills. A morning start is worth it.
