Delhi to Kullu Bus Travel Guide

A Delhi to Kullu bus heads north through Panipat, Ambala and Chandigarh before climbing past Sunder Nagar, Mandi, Aut and Bhuntar into the Kullu valley. Kullu suits a first day on the quieter left bank of the Beas, where Naggar Castle and the Roerich Art Gallery look out over orchards and snowy peaks.

Departing from Delhi for Kullu

Delhi boarding for this route starts at Kashmere Gate ISBT and the Karnal Bypass. More than twenty Pickup by Cab points across Noida, Rohini, west Delhi, south Delhi and Faridabad bring passengers to the Delhi to Kullu bus.

Local Transport to Delhi Bus Boarding Points

The Delhi Metro reaches Kashmere Gate and most cab pickup points. Evening traffic on the GT Karnal Road can be slow, so allow extra time.

  • Kashmere Gate ISBT: The zingbus counter, No. 28, sits inside the ISBT apart from the state bus bays.

  • Noida Cab Points: Shared cab pickups at Botanical Garden, Sector 17, Amity University and Axis House.

Arriving in Kullu

The Delhi to Kullu bus has two drops, at the ITBP camp in Babeli and at the Kullu Bypass near the Shani Dev temple. Babeli comes first, south of the town on the road from Bhuntar.

  • ITBP Camp, Babeli: The first drop, near the ITBP camp, south of Kullu town.
  • Kullu Bypass: Near the Shani Dev temple, the main drop for Kullu town and Dhalpur.
  • Kullu Bus Stand: Local buses leave for Naggar, Manali and the Parvati valley.
  • Left Bank Road: The quieter road to Naggar crosses the Beas and runs through apple orchards.

Taxis and local buses connect Kullu with Naggar, about 22 km away. Hotels and homestays set their own check-in times.

Top Places to Visit in Kullu

Kullu and its left bank villages hold royal castles, old temples and an art legacy left by a Russian painter. Naggar makes a peaceful half day away from the main highway.

  • Naggar Castle: A stone and timber castle built by Raja Sidhi Singh in 1460, now a heritage hotel.
  • Nicholas Roerich Art Gallery: The painter’s former home, 1.5 km above Naggar Castle, closed on Mondays.
  • Raghunath Temple, Kullu: The temple of the valley’s chief deity, central to Kullu Dussehra.
  • Bijli Mahadev Temple: A Shiva shrine on a ridge above Kullu, reached by a 3 km walk.
  • Jana Waterfall: A waterfall above Naggar, known for village meals served nearby.

Things to Do in Kullu After Your Bus Journey

After the Delhi to Kullu bus, the Naggar side of the valley offers art, history and orchard walks. A taxi for half a day keeps the plan simple.

  • Castle Courtyard: Naggar Castle’s balconies give wide views over the Beas valley.
  • Art Gallery: Roerich’s Himalayan paintings fill the rooms of his old home above the castle.
  • Orchard Walk: The lanes around Naggar pass apple and plum orchards in season.
  • Temple Visit: Kullu’s Raghunath Temple is the starting point of the Dussehra processions.
  • Shawl Shopping: Kullu’s handloom shops sell woollen shawls with bright geometric borders.

A Practical First Day in Kullu

Get off at the Kullu Bypass for the town. Have breakfast, check in or leave your bags, and rest after the long journey through Mandi and Aut.

In the late morning, take a taxi to Naggar Castle, open 10 AM to 5 PM, then walk or drive up to the Roerich Art Gallery, open 9 AM to 5 PM except Mondays.

Return to Kullu in the late afternoon, visit the Raghunath Temple and browse the shawl shops. Keep Bijli Mahadev for an early walk the next morning.

Kullu Local Transport Costs and Sightseeing Budget

For one adult on the Naggar plan, ₹1270 covers castle and gallery tickets, a shared taxi, meals and snacks. The castle fee comes from a travel listing, so all figures are planning allowances. Your stay and the bus fare from Delhi are extra.

ExpenseCost or planning allowance
Naggar Castle entry₹20 per person as a planning allowance
Roerich Art Gallery entry₹50 per person as a planning allowance
Shared taxi to Naggar and back₹600 per person as a planning allowance
Breakfast, lunch and dinner₹450 per person as a daily planning allowance
Tea, snacks and water₹150 per person as a daily planning allowance
Sample day for one adult₹1270, excluding shawls

Local buses to Naggar cost much less than a taxi but run less often. Kullu shawls and caps are personal purchases outside this budget.

Add a separate taxi allowance if you plan the Bijli Mahadev walk from Chansari. Sharing a taxi lowers the per-person cost.

Note: All figures are planning allowances; ticket prices and taxi fares may change.

Famous Foods to Try in Kullu

Kullu’s kitchens use local grains, lentils and wild greens, with recipes suited to cold mountain days. Dhabas and homestays serve many of these dishes.

  • Bhatooru: A soft fermented wheat bread, eaten with dal or chutney.
  • Lingri Achaar: A tangy pickle made from wild fiddlehead fern shoots.
  • Kodra Roti: Dark millet flatbread, often served with ghee and greens.
  • Mash Dal: Black lentils slow-cooked with spices, a hearty Himachali staple.
  • Seera: A sweet made from fermented wheat, cooked with ghee and sugar.

Best Time to Travel from Delhi to Kullu

March to June and September to November suit sightseeing around Kullu and Naggar. The monsoon brings landslide risk on the hill road, and winters are cold.

  • March to June: Pleasant days, with orchards in bloom in spring.
  • July and August: Heavy rain can block the road near Mandi and Aut.
  • September to November: Apple harvest and the Kullu Dussehra fair in October.
  • December to February: Cold days and possible snow higher up, so pack warm clothes.

Safety Measures by zingbus on Delhi to Kullu Bus Journey

The Delhi to Kullu bus is a long run from the plains into the mountains. Three core zingbus measures support passengers until the Kullu drops.

  • Two-Driver Policy: zingbus rotates drivers on routes longer than six hours, which covers this long climb into the valley.
  • zingbus Marshal: A marshal on board helps passengers find seats and responds to any concern.
  • Emergency Exits: The coach shows marked exits; keep bags off the aisle and follow crew instructions.

The road beyond Mandi has many bends, so eat lightly if you are prone to motion sickness. Naggar’s lanes are steep, so wear shoes with a good grip.
