Leaving behind the rose-tinted sandstone of Jaipur for the mist-covered foothills of the Himalayas in Dehradun is a journey that takes you from the heart of royal Rajasthan to the gateway of the mountains. While Jaipur is defined by its arid heat and intricate palaces, Dehradun offers a cooler, greener escape, serving as the jumping-off point for hill stations like Mussoorie and spiritual hubs like Rishikesh.
Jaipur to Dehradun by Flight
Flying is the way to save a day on the road. IndiGo connects Jaipur International Airport (JAI) with Jolly Grant Airport (DED) in Dehradun via Mumbai, Delhi and Kolkata. The two cities are about 437 km apart as the crow flies, and the fastest connection, via Mumbai, takes up to about 6 hours 20 minutes.[1]
IndiGo's fare calendar shows fares from ₹5,513 for mid-November dates.[1] Dehradun's airport is the gateway for Mussoorie and Rishikesh, so a taxi from the terminal gets you into the hills the same day.
