Taxis in Nurpur
Nurpur sits at the western gate of the district, an hour and a half from us on the Pathankot road, with its old fort and the Brij Raj Swami temple in the middle of the town.
What makes Nurpur busy for taxi work is Pathankot: the nearest broad-gauge railhead and airport, and only about forty minutes away. Anyone here travelling to Delhi, Jammu or the plains goes through it, and the trains and flights run at hours when buses do not. Those transfers, in both directions, are most of what we do from Nurpur.
It is also the turning for Chamba. Dalhousie and Khajjiar are a comfortable half-day from here, and the road on to Chamba town and Bharmour starts at the same junction, so weekend and pilgrimage runs up that side are a regular booking.
What's in the fare

- The same driver door to door, booked without an agent
- Clean AC cars on commercial tourist-taxi permits

What we'd actually do
A day out from Nurpur
A day west of the valley
Nurpur sits where Himachal meets Punjab, which is why this day is half fort-and-temple and half onward road.
- Morning
Nurpur Fort
The ruins above the town, with the Brij Raj Swami temple inside them — the one where Krishna and Meera are worshipped together. Unusual, and quiet.
- Late morning
Jassur
The market junction below the fort. This is where the Pathankot road and the valley road part company.
- Midday
Toward Chamba
If the day is going that way, the Chowari climb starts here and Dalhousie is three hours on. It is the natural long trip from Nurpur.
- Afternoon
Or east to Kangra
Flat valley running past Shahpur and Gaggal — an hour and a half to Kangra town and the fort.
~55 km · ~1.5 hrs
- Evening
Pathankot
Forty minutes west if the day ends at a train. We run to the night departures as readily as the morning ones.
Good to know locally
Nurpur Road station
It is not in Nurpur. The station of that name is several kilometres out, and Pathankot is the one most long-distance trains actually use.
The Chowari climb
The road to Dalhousie starts winding immediately after Nurpur and stays that way for an hour. Worth knowing before you set off with anyone who travels badly.
Crossing into Punjab
Amritsar is about three hours and Katra six. State permits sit inside the quoted fare rather than being added at the border.

Taxi service in Nurpur: your questions
How far is Pathankot from Nurpur by taxi?
About 40 km and roughly forty minutes on a good road. It is the nearest broad-gauge railway and airport, so it is the usual way out to Delhi, Jammu and the plains.
Can you meet a night train at Pathankot and bring us to Nurpur?
Yes. We track the train and the driver waits at the station however late it runs.
Is Dalhousie a day trip from Nurpur?
It is a long day but a doable one: roughly three hours each way, so most people prefer a night in Dalhousie or Khajjiar. We will tell you what fits before you book.
