This road can be approached from Delhi side by taking the Kaladhungi Road, where it bifurcates at a village called 'Chhoti Haldwani' (there would be huge road signs to guide you), right next to the Corbett Museum (take some time off to visit this museum, if possible).
For somebody coming from Nainital, just keep going up along the road to Manu Maharni, beyond the Rock Caves, beyond the Kumaon University guest house at Sleepy Hollow, without turning right towards Kilbury.
I myself took a disproportionate number of breaks midway - on hillcrests, winding snakey road views, rolling fog through the pines, open vistas, the Khurpatal lake, on seeing a congress of langurs, facing the converse face of China Peak, to name some. Riding on a Royal Enfield, my command on the turns felt cheeky, partly because any twist of the accelerator would make the Enfield break into its discordant thump - anything artificial will feel annoying on this pristine stretch - that felt like I was an alien here, to counter which I kept my bike under-revved. Then there were the occasional debris or shallow, flowing water on the road. Ending up with a muddy pair of jeans was still worth it.
Upon return, I caught sight of a couple of civets (bijju) crossing my way.
Now there more destinations on my Nainital map for a day hike, thanks to this 2-hour education.

I recently came across this detailed blog on the Nainital tour package from Delhi, and it’s truly helpful for anyone planning a hill getaway. The itinerary ideas are perfect for couples as well as families, especially those looking for a romantic Nainital honeymoon package with scenic lakes and peaceful surroundings. I also liked how the blog connects nearby experiences such as Jim Corbett National Park Ramnagar tour safari packages, which add adventure to the trip. Including options like Nainital Ranikhet Kausani tour packages makes the journey more complete, covering nature, culture, and relaxation. Overall, a very informative and well-written guide for planning an unforgettable Uttarakhand holiday.
