An unexpected turn on the Kotdwar- Pauri road brings you to Lansdowne, a pretty hill station in the Pauri Garhwal region of Uttarakhand. ‘Lord Lansdowne’ founded Lansdowne, in 1887 AD, thus the place has been named after him. This beautiful retreat was popular with the British who established the Garhwal Rifles Regimental Centre here during the Raj. The town is well developed thanks to the cantonment, it is charming unspoiled and tranquil. The drive to Lansdowne will be the best drive of your life. The route goes through small hamlets and thickly forested countryside roads. The first view of Lansdowne is breathtaking. Lansdowne is set admits lovely surroundings - tall oaks and blue pines raise like spires off the mountainside. The forests are lovely, dark and deep, just ideal for those long walks and for rejuvenating oneself. In spite of being so close to Delhi, it surprisingly, does not have traffic on the road leading to Lansdowne. Lansdowne was originally a popular hill station of the British. Attracted by its salubrious climate and natural beauty, they established a cantonment here. The place still has a cantonment and proudly preserves its links from the past.
