12 Unforgettable Tourist Places to Visit in Uttarakhand

What to See and Do in the Land of Natural Beauty

Uttarakhand, bordered by Nepal and Tibet, and shadowed by towering Himalayan peaks, is full of unspoiled natural beauty. It's divided into two regions—Garhwal in the north, and Kumaon in the south. Ancient holy places, mountains, forests and valleys, and an abundance of trekking options are some of the attractions that make travel to Uttarakhand worthwhile. Check out these top tourist places in Uttarakhand for inspiration.

Uttarakhand is also an excellent place to get off the beaten track. If you're looking for fresh air and tranquility, you'll love some of these boutique Himalayan getaways .

Jim Corbett National Park

One of India's most popular national parks , Jim Corbett National Park is named after hunter-turned-conservationist Jim Corbett. It has dense forest and an array of wildlife, although tiger sightings aren't as common as some other places in India. The park can be explored by jeep or elephant safaris, which take place daily in the early mornings and afternoons. The Dhikala zone of the park is the most panoramic, with stunning valley views. It offers the best chance of animal sightings (which are unfortunately sometimes disappointing). If you're lucky, you might spot wild elephants. 

• Location: About five hours drive northeast of Delhi.

Ancient Haridwar (the "Gateway to God") is one of the seven holiest places in India, and one of the oldest living cities. Located at the foothills of the Himalayas in Uttarakhand, it's particularly popular with Hindu pilgrims who come to take a dip in the holy waters of the fast flowing Ganges River and wash away their sins. The evening Ganga Aarti holds a special appeal.

Rishikesh, located not far from Haridwar, is as popular with western spiritual seekers as Haridwar is with Hindu pilgrims. Known as the birthplace of yoga, people flock there to meditate, do yoga, and learn about other aspects of Hinduism in the various ashrams and yoga institutes. Despite the growing number of visitors, the town's lanes and alleys retain an old-world charm. It remains a wonderful place to relax and unwind among nature.

• Location: 40 minutes drive northeast of Haridwar.

The hill settlement of Nainital, in the Kumaon region of Uttarakhand, was a popular summer retreat for the British during the time they ruled India. It features emerald colored Nainital (Naini) Lake and an action-filled strip called The Mall, lined with restaurants, shops, hotels, and markets. Enjoy one of the many forest walks, explore the surrounding area on horseback, or relax on a boat in the lake. This destination gets very crowded during summers, especially on weekends, due to its proximity to Delhi. Around Nainital, you'll find Jeolikote, Bhimtal, Ramgarh and Mukteshwar which are ​all less developed and quieter places to stay.

• Location: About 6.5 hours drive east of Delhi.
• Check Out Current Nainital Hotel Deals on Tripadvisor and Save

Mussoorie is another popular weekend destination for north Indians, as well as honeymooners. One of the main reasons for this is because it has a lot of facilities developed especially for tourists. Take a cable car to Gun Hill, enjoy a beautiful nature walk along Camel's Back Road, have a picnic at Kempty Falls, or ride a horse up to Lal Tibba (the highest peak in Mussoorie). Mussoorie also offers a superb view of the Himalayas. If you're looking for a quieter alternative nearby, check out Landour.

• Location: About six hours drive north of Delhi and an hour from Dehradun (Uttarakhand's capital). IRCTC offers a convenient two-night weekend rail tour package from Delhi to Mussoorie.

Almora, now the capital of the Kumaon region, was established as the summer capital of Chand kings in 1560. It attracts its share of foreigners who head to nearby Kasar Devi Temple, where Swami Vivekananda meditated. There are some chilled out places to stay in the area, such as Kasar Rainbow Resort and Mohan's Binsar Retreat,  as well as inexpensive guesthouses with private cottages just outside Almora town. Around Almora,​ you'll find the Binsar Wildlife Sanctuary, Kausani (where Gandhi spent time writing his  Bhagavad Gita  treatise), Ranikhet and the Jageshwar temple complex.

• Location: About nine hours drive northeast of Delhi.

Valley of Flowers National Park

The remarkable landscape of The Valley of Flowers National Park in the Garhwal region comes alive with the monsoon rain. This high-altitude Himalayan valley has around 300 different varieties of alpine flowers, which appear as a bright carpet of color against a mountainous snow-capped background. It's a popular trekking destination, open from the start of June until the end of October.

• Location: About 15 hours drive northeast of Delhi, plus a trek.

Located high up in the Garhwal region of Uttarakhand, the Char Dham (four temples) mark the spiritual source of four holy rivers: the Yamuna (at Yamunotri), the Ganges (at Gangotri), the Mandakini (at Kedarnath), and the Alaknanda (at Badrinath ). Hindus consider a pilgrimage to the Char Dham to be very auspicious. Not only is it believed to wash away all sins, but it will also ensure release from the cycle of birth and death.

Uttarakhand even has a skiing destination! Auli lies on the way to Badrinath and has a three-kilometer long slope, gondola, chairlift, and Poma ski lift. For skiing, conditions are best from the last week of January to the first week of March. However, it's dependent on good snowfall, which is variable. If you're into trekking, the Kuari Pass trailhead is at Auli. This trek, which passes through Nanda Devi National Park, is one of the state's best and most accessible. Thrillophilia offers six-day guided trips from Haridwar . There are many other hiking trails around too.

Accommodation options in Auli are scarce but Devi Darshan Lodge is recommended if you don't stay at the popular government-run Garhwal Mandal Vikas Nigam Hotel (which offers ski programs). Alternatively, the Himalayan Abode Homestay near Joshimath is excellent, and the host is a skiing and snowboarding champion and coach. Another good option is Himalayan Eco Lodge .

• Location: About 13 hours drive northeast of Delhi, near Joshimath.

Magical Munsiyari, a small town surrounded by towering mountains in the Pithoragarh district of Uttarakhand, is paradise for mountaineers and trekkers. Blazing sunsets create a stunning backdrop of color-stained peaks there. However, the hiking and trekking routes are the biggest draws. Munsiyari is the base for the challenging nine-day Milam Glacier Trek , and the much easier two- to three-hour trek to Khalia Top is another attraction. The Tribal Heritage Museum, filled with artifacts from Munsiyari's trade with Tibet on the ancient salt route, is also worth seeing. Milam Inn , albeit basic, is the best place to stay in Munsiyari and it offers fabulous mountain views from the guest rooms.

• Location: About 16 hours drive northeast of Delhi.

Not to be confused with the Chopta Valley in Sikkim, Chopta lies between Kedarnath and Badrinath in the Garhwal region of Uttarakhand, at the entry to Kedarnath Wildlife Sanctuary. It attracts travelers who want to enjoy the great outdoors away from the crowds and development. Chopta is the starting point for treks to Tungnath temple (open from June to September) and Chandrashila summit. It's a short, yet scenic, moderate trek that can be completed in a day. Notably, the temple is the world's highest Shiva temple. Thrillophilia offers four-day guided trips from Haridwar.

• Location: About 10 hours drive northeast of Delhi, via Rishikesh.

It's likely that you've never heard of Kalap, a tiny remote village that's only accessible by foot, 7,500 feet above sea level in the upper Garhwal region of Uttarakhand. That's because it's totally off the tourist map. A responsible tourism project was established there in 2013 to help improve the livelihoods of the villagers. Kalap is an outstanding place to get away from it all and experience the simplicity of village life or go trekking along trails followed by nomadic shepherds.

• Location: About six hours north of Dehradun in Uttarakhand.

Best Time to Visit Uttarakhand

What is the best time to visit uttarakhand.

The best time to visit Uttarakhand is from March to May and mid September to mid October. During these months, the weather is pleasant and ideal for adventure activities like trekking and paragliding. In spring (March to May), the temperature ranges from 10°C to 25°C, with blooming flowers and lush green landscapes enhancing the region's natural beauty perfect for rafting in Rishikesh and wildlife spotting in Jim Corbett National Park. The Char Dham Yatra starts during this time. Autumn (September to October) offers a similar temperature range, with clear skies and moderate weather, making it perfect for trekking, sightseeing, and exploring the picturesque hill stations. These periods avoid the extreme cold of winter and the heavy rains of the monsoon, providing the best conditions to experience Uttarakhand's diverse attractions, from the tranquil lakes of Nainital to the spiritual ambiance of Rishikesh and Haridwar.  Some parts of Uttarakhand like Mussoorie and Nainital experience snowfall from November to February. It is not advisable to visit Uttarakhand during peak monsoons in July and August. However, Valley of Flowers is picture perfect during the monsoon season. Peak Season (March - June) Weather:  The plains (Dehradun, Haridwar) are warm and pleasant with temperatures between 20°C and 35°C, hill stations (Nainital, Mussoorie, Ranikhet) are cool and comfortable at 10°C to 25°C, and higher altitudes (Auli, Kedarnath, Badrinath) are mildly cold, ideal for trekking, with temperatures ranging from 5°C to 20°C.

Note:  Off-season discounts are common, making accommodations cheaper. Some remote areas may be inaccessible due to road damage, so have flexible travel plans. Be aware of potential landslides and roadblocks. It is advisable to check weather forecasts and road conditions before traveling. Shoulder Season (October - February) Weather:  Hill stations like Nainital, Mussoorie, and Auli have cool, pleasant weather with temperatures between 0°C and 15°C, while lower regions like Dehradun and Rishikesh experience mild winters ranging from 10°C to 20°C.

"The right kind of Busy"

Weather and best time to visit.

Uttarakhand is a destination to be visited all through the year as each season has something special to offer. The best time to explore the destination is during the summer season as climate conditions remain comfortable. Its summers (March-June) are pleasant and a great time to soak in the scenic beauty and embark on adventures. Tourists can also plan to travel to the place during winters, although, certain areas become inaccessible during this time due to heavy snowfall. So, if you enjoy the cold, this is a beautiful time to visit the state. From July to September the state of Uttarakhand experiences monsoon. This time of year is not considered as the idyllic season as compared to other two seasons. The reason for this is that the place witnesses heavy rainfall in these months. But, Monsoon in Uttarakhand is refreshing. One can enjoy to the fullest, the lush greenery and the natural beauty of destinations like Mussoorie, Dhanaulti, Lansdowne, Mukteshwar and Pangot will makes you relax and enjoy like never before.

Summer (March – June):

Arguably the best time to visit Uttarakhand, the temperature is at pleasant average throughout this season, making it a heaven for pilgrims, wildlife and nature lovers as well as adventure sport enthusiasts. Summers are counted as favourable to plan a trip to Uttarakhand. The temperature in summer season varies from 20°C to 35°C.

Winter (October – February):

With temperatures dropping to sub-zero levels, parts of the state are inclined to receive heavy snowfall during these months due to its geographic location. The winter season in Uttarakhand is quite cold and the season lasts from October to March. Snowfall is quite common especially in the upper regions of Uttarakhand. Tourists are advised to pack in their woolens if they make a plan to explore Uttarakhand in the winters.

Monsoon (March – September):

Uttarakhand is likely to receive heavy rainfall almost every monsoon season. The rainy season is not a very pleasant phase in Uttarakhand as the hilly parts are particularly prone to landslides. Caution is advised to visitors travelling to Uttarakhand during the monsoon.  

Climate in Uttarakhand

Uttarakhand experiences 3 major seasons; summers, winters and monsoon. The climate of the region is also dependent on geographical divisions which consist of hilly terrains which are predominant and the plains, which are the smaller. However just as a visit to the lower regions of Uttarakhand is advisable in the winter, the higher areas are best visited in the summer. Many tourists now visit the state during winter to enjoy snowfall.  Auli is a major winter attraction thanks to its smooth ski-slopes.

Why Visit Uttarakhand

Ancient holy places, mountains, forests and valleys, and an abundance of trekking options are some of the attractions that make travel to Uttarakhand worthwhile.

7 Day Uttarakhand Road Trip Itinerary

The Best of Uttarakhand in One Week

Uttarakhand Tourism saw a sharp rise in popularity the last couple of years. This northern state in India is a cornucopia of many hill stations and tourist attractions. There is so much to do and so much to see as Uttarakhand is blessed with natural beauty – jungles, rivers, snow-clad mountains and an inherent sense of divinity. The state is also called “Devbhumi” (“The Land of the Gods”) as it is home to many highly revered shrines like  Badrinath, Kedarnath  and so many others. And then there is offbeat Uttarakhand that we keep exploring whenever we can find an opportunity.

It can take a whole book to write about what are the best things to do in Uttarakhand . But that is for another day. Here is our humble attempt to create an Uttarakhand guide about what all can you do in 7 days, through this 7 Day Uttarakhand Travel Itinerary and Guide . We have tried to include destinations that you can reach within 6-7 hours of journey from each other.

• How to reach Uttarakhand

The best way to reach Uttarakhand from any part of the world is by starting from Delhi. Delhi is very well-connected with Uttarakhand via road, rail and air. Though there are 5 airports in Uttarakhand, you may or may not get a direct flight. Once you are in Delhi, you can opt for road transport like a rented cab, bus or a self driven car. From our experience, Uttarakhand road trips are most convenient to reach some of the offbeat places.

Day 1 – Delhi to Haridwar

Day 2 – haridwar to mussoorie, day 3 – mussoorie to chakrata, day 4 – chakrata to lansdowne, day 5 – lansdowne to nainital, day 6 – kausani day trip, day 7 – nainital to jim corbett national park , day 8 – back to delhi, 7 day uttarakhand road trip itinerary – summary, share this:.

Haridwar is famous for River Ganges. It is a temple town in Uttarakhand and is famous for its Ganga Aarti that is performed every morning and evening. One can cover the 200 kms odd strech from Delhi to Haridwar within 5 hours and the road condition is good. The stretch is full of eating options like  dhabas , hotels and cafes. The good part is Haridwar is in the Himalayan foothills so one can expect decent weather.

Things to do in Haridwar include Ganga Aarti  especially in the evening. It’s a spectacle like no other. Thousands of devotees gather around the river banks to offer prayers to Goddess Ganga. Priests with lamps in their hands chant mantras and the atmosphere looks blissful. There are myriad temples in Haridwar each with a different story. You can also visit Rishikesh from Haridwar which is barely 45 minutes drive and there are some famous temples and ashram in Rishikesh. The famous Beatles Ashram is also in Rishikesh. One can opt for hourly meditation and spa sessions in Rishikesh as well. This zone is also the most popular water rafting zone in North India.

Haridwar to Mussoorie is around 85kms and is not more than a 3 hours drive. Mussoorie is also called the “Queen of Hills” and hence from Day 2 your trip is going to be mostly on high terrain. Mussoorie is immensely popular with tourists because of many reasons. For one, Mussoorie has great weather throughout the year. Further, it has access to all sorts of hotel options from basic to luxury, from family friendly places to hostels and dormitories. Thirdly, this place has fantastic connectivity to other locations in Uttarakhand.

Things to do in Mussoorie include pottering down the famous Mall Road , trekking to Char Dukan , St Paul’s Church and early morning walk to camel’s back point. While trekking, do look out for antique and cobbler shops that make handmade shoes on order. A visit to hill resort Rockby’s Manor and savouring cheese omelette at Lovely Omelette Shop are also highly recommended. You may shop for souvenirs from the Mall Road of Mussoorie. It is full of gift options for all tastes and budgets.

You will drive 100kms and reach Chakrata in a span of 3 hours  from Mussoorie and see a completely different side of Uttarakhand here. While Mussoorie is extremely touristy, Chakrata is quite the opposite. It is an offbeat place and you may not see many tourists here. But it is breathtakingly beautiful and has retained its tranquillity. Chakrata is less explored but there are also many things one can do here in addition to soaking in the natural beauty. The most popular activity here is to visit Tiger Falls. These falls create sounds of roaring tigers when water drops from top of the hill to the pond at the bottom. It is a perfect picnic spot and you can frolic in the water. Apart from the waterfalls one can also visit  Mahsu Temple and Budher Caves.  

For adventure lovers there are arrangements for water rappelling at Kimona Falls.

Start the day early and within 6-7 hours of driving from Chakrata, covering around 250 kms, you will reach Lansdowne, a sleepy hill station in Uttarakhand. Lansdowne is essentially a Cantonment Town, and is home to the eilte  Garhwal Rifles of the Indian Army and hence you can expect peace, cleanliness and order. It is one of our most favorite places in Uttarakhand, no wonder we have visited it many times.

Things to do in Lansdowne include visiting Bulla Taal , a manmade lake which almost looks like a set from Indiana Jones movie, St Mary’s Church and trek up to Tiffin Top . We would highly recommend doing all these things by foot. All these things are under one hour trekking from each other and you will be able to absorb the beauty of Lansdowne better. Don’t forget to savour the famous chocolate  burfi  and Baal Mithai  – the specialty desserts of this region . We bet you will get these packed for friends and family.

A 6-7 hour drive covering around 250 kms will take you from Lansdowne to Nainital , which is perhaps the busiest hill station in Uttarakhand. Just like Mussoorie, Nainital also gets tourists all through the year. Summer vacations are the peak season in Nainital and if you don’t like crowds you should avoid holiday months for visiting this place. Nevertheless, it is a beautiful hill station any day.

The Naini Lake surrounded by green mountains is the heart of this place. Boating in Naini Lake is just one of the things to do here. Apart from this, you can visit the Naina Devi Temple , enjoy cable car rides and visit Eco Caves Garden . The Mall Road is a perfect place for shopping. Look out for hand carved wax candles here. This is a local handicraft and the candles come in all sorts of shapes and sizes. We would also highly recommend breakfast and bakery items at The Sakleys, A Mountain Cafe on Mall Road.

Don’t check out from your hotel at Nainital when you start for Kausani the next morning. Kausani can be visited from Nainital and one is advised to come back the same night since there are not many lodging options in Kausani. The driving time from Nainital to Kasauni is less than 4 hours and Kausani will give you a much-needed break from the humdrum of Nainital. Start early in the morning and you can visit Neem Karouli Ashram and  Katarmal Sun Temple on route to Kausani. If you love history, Katarmal Sun Temple may turn out to be a spectacular experience.

Kausani is a quaint little hamlet in Uttarakhand and would be loved by travellers who like peace and solitude. Apart from watching the valley from the binoculars from the highest point here, one must visit Gandhiji’s Anashakti Ashram in Kausani. It is a beautiful ashram cum museum displaying Gandhi memorabilia. Kausani is a perfect place to just be and not do anything. Just be one with nature and be awed by the variety of brightly coloured wild flowers. Start on your way back around sunset and you’ll be in Nainital by dinner time.

Another interesting alternative, is to head out of Nainital, and drive to Bhimtal, an hour away, and check into Fredy’s Bungalow – A Colonial style bungalow , for the night, surrounded by nature, which is perfect for disconnecting and reconnecting with nature. Among the many things that you can do, the best of the lot is to go hiking which also involves plenty of bird watching.

Jim Corbett National Park, the last destination on this 7 Day Uttarakhand Road Trip Itinerary, is barely 2 hours from Nainital and this would be your drive downhill back to the plains. Jim Corbett National Park, which also happens to be one of the Best National Parks in India , is famous for its jungle safari which happens early mornings and evenings. Most of the accommodation here are resorts, such as Aahana Resort and there are barely any standalone restaurants.

It is highly advisable to pre book your jungle safari as the better zones get full very easily. If you are lucky you may see tigers in the jungle but it highly depends on which zone are you in and which month you visit Jim Corbett. Don’t focus too much on tiger sightings and enjoy the deer, nilgai, and host of birds like kingfisher that would surely come your way. The overall safari experience is beautiful.

Apart from jungle safari, one can go for a village tour on foot or on a bicycle that your resort may provide. Since it’s your last day in Uttarakhand we would highly recommend taking it easy and Jim Corbett is a perfect place for that. The place has a very relaxed and laid-back vibe. Being forest area travellers are not advised to venture out in the night. That is the best time to chill in a pool or rejuvenate in a spa inside the resort.

Start after breakfast from Jim Corbett National Park and after a 5 hours drive, you will be in Delhi with your cameras full of beautiful pictures and your hearts full of amazing memories.

There are several reasons why one might want to visit this tiny slice of heaven. And with  India’s Uttarakhand packages, you can expect a smooth travel experience and an Uttarakhand holiday that you will reminisce for years to come.

How to Reach Uttarakhand

All three important travel options are available for you to visit Uttarakhand . The state has two domestic airports that can fly you in from all major cities of India like Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata and Chennai. Landing in the Jolly Grant Airport in Dehradun essentially means having the option to reach anywhere in Uttarakhand. Being only 22 kilometres from the city centre, this airport functions as a central point that has access to all the nooks and crannies of the state. For international passengers, it is suggested that you take a direct flight to Delhi and then hop onto another one that will carry you to Dehradun. People do not visit Dehradun only because it’s the easiest and fastest way to be in Uttarakhand. The other very significant reason for this choice is that Dehradun is stunning and it offers a quick entrance into Rishikesh, Haridwar, and even Mussoorie . Once you land at the Jolly Grant Airport, you can grab a window seat on the next bus and journey to one of these locations. The other airport is the Pantangar Airport which offers close proximity to covered hill stations in Kumaon like Nainital, Bhimtal, Ranikhet, Almora, Jim Corbett National Park and even Bareilly. 

If you wish to lap up the old-school charm of trains, then too your trip is sorted. The country’s major cities find themselves connected to the most picturesque hill stations in Uttarakhand by rail. There are 16 different stations that link up Uttarakhand to the rest of India. Only 2 kilometres from the city centre, the Dehradun Railway Station regularly sees trains from Delhi, Kolkata, Varanasi etc. making an entry or exiting the platforms at different times throughout the day. If time is a luxury and it seems like a safer option to you because of the pandemic, then a road trip to Uttarakhand can be planned without breaking a sweat. Several national highways run through the state connecting it to other parts of the country. Uttarakhand trip by road would allow you to see the raw beauty of the scenes leading up to the gorgeousness that is Uttarakhand.

Best Time to Visit Uttarakhand

The best time to visit Uttarakhand  The Land of the Gods, but from March to April and September to October is considered the ideal time to book your Uttarakhand tour package. With a plethora of religious sites, this place is a major attraction for people who would like a tête-à-tête with God. If you worship adventure, then too Uttarakhand has to be on your list of must-visits. This is why the summer season, from March to June, is considered the peak season. Summer Uttarakhand packages make it possible for you to indulge in a variety of adventure activities. Whether you want to glide across the blue skies or plan to do a spiritual soar with the Char Dham Yatra, Uttarakhand opens itself up for exploration during the summer months. During the summertime, our Uttarakhand packages will allow you to enjoy a laidback visit to the prime attractions while soaking your senses in all the beauty nature has to offer to you as a seasonal present.  

If winter doesn’t scare you, but instead appeals to you more, then Uttarakhand in the months from October to February may be when you should plan your Uttarakhand holiday. For those who might be sceptical, Uttarakhand will dress its mountain caps in snow and transform itself into paradise to lure you in.  An Uttarakhand tour during the monsoons may seem like a bad idea, but surprisingly it is not. The place shows a different side of its personality to you when you visit between the months of July and September. Imagine a rich velvety green spreading across you, every leaf drenched and looking fresh and full of life! Expect sighs of ecstasy to leave your lips constantly during your monsoon Uttarakhand trip.

Assembly bypoll: Clash breaks out between two groups in Uttarakhand's Manglaur, several injured

Assembly bypoll: The Manglaur bypoll was necessitated by the death of sitting BSP MLA Sarwat Karim Ansari in October last year.

Congress leader Nizamuddin said, "Miscreants have been openly firing. This is the murder of Democracy. There is also news of someone being injured. There was no ambulance or any other measures taken to take the injured to hospital." 

Police on clash 

SP Rural Swapan Kishore Singh said that the situation is normal here and the voting is happening peacefully. " Enough police force has been deployed. We received information about a controversy and that is why we are here. There is no confirmation on bullet firing yet. We are trying to bring normalcy," he said.

Polling underway in Manglaur, Badrinath assembly seats

Voting is currently underway for the bypolls in Uttarakhand's Manglaur and Badrinath assembly constituencies. Polling began at 8 am on Wednesday and will continue until 6 pm.

The Manglaur bypoll was necessitated due to the death of sitting BSP MLA Sarwat Karim Ansari in October last year. In Manglaur, the BSP has nominated Ansari's son Ubedur Rehman, who is up against Congress candidate Qazi Nizamuddin.

In a constituency historically dominated by Muslims and Dalits, BJP's nominee Kartar Singh Bhadana, a prominent Gujjar leader, is also contesting.

Meanwhile, the Badrinath seat became vacant after sitting Congress MLA Rajendra Bhandari resigned and joined the BJP in March this year. The contest in Badrinath primarily involves a face-off between BJP's Rajendra Bhandari and Congress newcomer Lakhpat Singh Butola.

Additionally, former CRPF officer Himmat Singh of the Sainik Samaj Party and journalist Naval Khali, who is running as an Independent candidate, are also competing in Badrinath.

Vote counting for the bypolls is scheduled for July 13.

Air Canada suspending decades-old Cleveland-to-Toronto flight

CLEVELAND, Ohio – Air Canada is suspending nonstop service between Cleveland and Toronto, a short flight that many Northeast Ohio travelers use to connect to destinations in Europe, Asia and throughout Canada.

The airline said it was suspending the route “for commercial reasons.” According to one source, the airline is experiencing issues with aircraft availability.

Air Canada service from Toronto Pearson International Airport to least five other U.S. cities is being suspended as well, including Columbus, Cincinnati, Indianapolis, Kansas City and Hartford.

The suspension begins Oct. 13. A spokesperson for Air Canada said the flight would resume in early May.

Air Canada has flown the route for decades, since at least 1990, according to the airport.

Most Cleveland travelers on the flight are not headed to Toronto – an easy five-hour drive from Northeast Ohio – but rather use the route as the first leg on a longer trip. Air Canada flies from Toronto to more than 70 international destinations, including cities in Asia, Europe, South and North America.

Air Canada currently flies the Cleveland-to-Toronto three times per day on a Bombardier 76-seat CJR-900 aircraft. It is the only route offered by Air Canada in Cleveland.

The elimination of Air Canada from Hopkins will mean the airport is back to 10 carriers, at least temporarily. Earlier this year, Sun Country Airlines launched new service between Cleveland and Minneapolis, becoming the 11th carrier at the airport.

The airport, in a statement, said: “The airline industry is facing myriad challenges that can negatively impact capacity. Air Canada has served Northeast Ohio via Cleveland Hopkins International Airport for many decades and we look forward to that partnership continuing for years to come.”
